UV curing technology is a highly efficient, environment-friendly, energy-saving and high-quality material surface treatment technology. It can rapidly cure and color with thousands of times of the speed of traditional paint or ink, and form a layer of high-strength protective film. UV curable products mainly appear in the form of UV curable coatings, UV curable inks, UV curable adhesives, photosensitive printing plates, photoresists, photo rapid prototyping materials, etc. At present, they are rapidly popularized to furniture coloring, automotive parts anti-corrosion, rapid repair and other fields. But there are two things to note:,
Interaction between UV curing industry and upstream and downstream industries
It is understood that the UV curing new material industry chain can be simply divided into the upstream basic chemical raw materials and related auxiliary materials, the midstream is the manufacturer of radiation curing raw materials and radiation curing formula products, and the downstream is the terminal customers of the industries such as ink printing, home building materials, household appliances, automobiles, electronic parts, optical components, optical fibers and microelectronics.
As a link in the UV curing formula products, UV curing new materials are in the middle and upper reaches of the industrial chain. The main raw materials required by the UV curing new material industry are chemicals, including acrylic acid, epoxy propane, epoxy resin, trimethylolpropane, etc. Therefore, its upstream industry is the chemical industry. It is worth noting that the price of chemical industry products will be mainly affected by factors such as oil price fluctuation and market supply and demand. The downstream industry of UV curing new materials industry is the UV curing formula product market, including three major industries: UV curing coatings, UV curing inks and UV curing adhesives. The products are widely used in downstream areas, almost closely related to the main areas of daily life, from electronic products, home decoration materials to medicine and medical treatment. Therefore, the continuous growth and technological progress of the downstream industry have a great impact on the UV curing new material enterprises, and the price changes and market demand changes of downstream enterprises will in turn affect the profitability of UV curing new material enterprises. At the same time, as the performance of UV curing new materials has a significant impact on the performance of downstream products, the technology transformation and upgrading of downstream industries also have a great impact on UV curing new materials enterprises.
