my country is the main producer of copper and gold powder. Copper and gold powder is mainly used in the printing and coating industries.
Copper-gold powder, referred to as gold powder, is a metal with a scaly structure, good covering ability, and metallic luster made from copper-zinc alloy as the main raw material through smelting, atomization powdering, ball milling, grading, glazing and other processes. pigment. According to the particle size, copper and gold powder can be divided into 200 mesh, 400 mesh, 600 mesh, 800 mesh, 1000 mesh, 1200 mesh, 1500 mesh and other types. In addition, according to the different color of copper-gold powder, copper-gold powder can be divided into copper-gold powder of different colors such as red-red, green-red gold, green gold and so on.
my country is the world’s major copper and gold powder producer. In the industry, there are Suzhou Futian High-tech Powder Co., Ltd., Suzhou Jingtai Metal Pigment Products Co., Ltd., Anhui Nanou Metal Co., Ltd., Inner Mongolia Xuyang New Materials Co., Ltd., Shandong Golden Diamond Metal Materials Co., Ltd., etc. enterprise. Among them, Suzhou Futian High-tech Powder Co., Ltd. and Anhui Nanou Metal Co., Ltd. have a copper and gold powder output of more than 5,000 tons; Inner Mongolia Xuyang New Materials Co., Ltd., Suzhou Jingtai Metal Pigment Co., Ltd., and Shandong Jindiamond Metal Materials Co., Ltd. have a copper and gold powder output of 1,000-5,000 tons. between tons.
In addition to China, Germany’s Eckart-werke is the originator of the copper-gold powder industry and the world’s leading manufacturer of metallic effect pigments. It is a global leader in copper-gold powder product types and product quality; Japan is also an important copper-gold powder producer. The country owns manufacturing companies such as Fukuda Metal Foil Powder Industry Co., Ltd.
From the perspective of downstream applications, at this stage, my country’s copper and gold powder is mainly used in the printing and coating fields. In 2022, my country’s demand for copper and gold powder in the printing field will account for nearly 60%, and the demand for copper and gold powder in the coating field will account for nearly 30%. From the perspective of demand areas, my country’s East China, South China and other regions have large-scale development of printing, coating and other industries and are the main demand markets for copper and gold powder. In 2022, the total market demand for copper and gold powder in East China and South China will account for nearly 80%.
Judging from the development status of the copper and gold powder industry segments, the “Copper and Gold Powder Industry In-depth Market Research and Investment Strategy Suggestions Report 2023-2027” released by the Industrial Research Center It is shown that the current mainstream copper and gold powder in the domestic market is copper and gold powder of 1,000 mesh and below. This type of copper and gold powder is suitable for screen printing, fabric gold printing, fly gold, handicraft coating and other fields. In 2022, domestic copper and gold powder of 1,000 mesh and below will account for more than 80% of the market.
Industry analysts said that copper-gold powder has a strong metallic feel and a special luster different from other metallic pigments. In the future, as consumers pay more attention to The appearance requirements of cigarettes, bottles of wine, wall calendars, food boxes, gift boxes, etc. are becoming more and more personalized and diversified, and the application demand of copper and gold powder in the printing field will further increase. At the same time, with the further development of the new energy vehicle industry, the demand for spray coatings in the automotive field may increase, which will provide a driving force for the expansion of copper and gold powder market demand. However, in addition to copper and gold powder, pearlescent pigments can also be used in the printing and coating fields, and pearlescent pigments are safer and more environmentally friendly. Therefore, the copper and gold powder industry faces the threat of substitution by the pearlescent pigment industry.
