TDE-85 epoxy resin is difficult to produce and the industry has high growth potential
Epoxy resin refers to the general name of a type of polymer containing more than two epoxy groups (—CH (O) CH—) in the molecule. TDE-85 epoxy resin is a new type of trifunctional epoxy resin. The product has greater reactivity than ordinary alicyclic epoxy resins, high epoxy value, low viscosity, excellent processing performance, and is widely used in available In the fields of high strength, high elastic modulus carbon fiber, glass fiber composite materials and other fields.
TDE-85 epoxy resin was first developed in China in the 1980s. In 1981, TDE-85 epoxy resin officially passed technical appraisal in Tianjin, and then TDE-85 epoxy resin officially entered industrial production and application. However, due to limitations of production technology and high product prices, missiles, aircraft, satellites and other military fields are still the main application fields of TDE-85 epoxy resin, and its applications in the civilian field are still relatively small.
TDE-85 epoxy resin material can be divided into TDE-85 epoxy resin and TDE-90 epoxy resin according to different epoxy values. TDE-90 epoxy resin and TDE-85 epoxy resin are the same type of products, but TDE-90 epoxy resin has a higher epoxy value, and its color and viscosity are also different from TDE-85 epoxy resin. According to different application fields, TDE-85 epoxy resin can be divided into military TDE-85 epoxy resin and civilian TDE-85 epoxy resin. According to different downstream products, it can also be divided into TDE-85 epoxy resin for carbon fiber, The adhesive uses TDE-85 epoxy resin, etc.
According to the “2023-2028 China TDE-85 Epoxy Resin Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center ” shows that in recent years, driven by factors such as growth in downstream demand and improvements in production technology, China’s TDE-85 epoxy resin output has maintained a rapid growth trend; in 2022, China’s TDE-85 epoxy resin industry output will be 1,850 tons, an increase of The speed is 9.8%.
However, due to the difficulty of product production, only a few domestic companies such as Tiantai High-tech (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd., Tianjin Jingdong Chemical Composite Materials Co., Ltd., Hubei Xinjing New Materials Co., Ltd., and Hubei Bolan Chemical Co., Ltd. have the production capacity. capabilities and industry concentration is relatively high. But overall, the technical barriers of TDE-85 epoxy resin are relatively high, and it is difficult for companies to quickly master production technology and mass production in the short term. Therefore, market competition in the TDE-85 epoxy resin industry will still be moderate in the future.
Industry analysts said that TDE-85 epoxy resin can be used to prepare high-performance composite materials and has received widespread attention from all walks of life. . However, due to the complex manufacturing process, high cost and expensive price of TDE-85 epoxy resin, its application fields are limited. It is currently mainly used to produce carbon fiber, glass fiber composite materials, etc., and is further used in military industry, aerospace and other fields. In addition, in addition to the field of carbon fiber, more new application fields of TDE-85 epoxy resin, such as adhesives, electronic appliances and other fields, are also being continuously developed. As the development maturity of these application fields increases, TDE-85 The epoxy resin industry will usher in major development opportunities.
