The development prospect of refractory industry

Traditional industry in China —& ndash;Overcapacity situation of iron and steel, coal is well-known, and in January 2015, the political bureau of the CPC central committee and state council premier li keqiang steel coal industry in shanxi taiyuan chaired to solve excess capacity, implementation to erase development work symposium in coal is an important basic industry, iron and steel with strong men DuanWan courage to solve the excess capacity, opened the prelude to the reform of production capacity, refractory also dropped, appear even negative growth.

Before analyzing the refractory industry, we first understand the definition of refractory.According to the encyclopedic interpretation, refractory material mainly refers to a kind of inorganic non-metallic material whose refractory degree is not less than 1580℃.Refractoriness refers to the Celsius temperature at which the conical specimens of refractories resist high temperature without softening melt-down under the condition of no load.However, the definition of refractoriness alone can not fully describe the refractory, 1580℃ is not an absolute.Now it is defined as refractory materials whose physical and chemical properties allow them to be used in high temperature environment.

Refractory materials are mainly used in high temperature production projects of steel, nonferrous metal, cement, glass and other fields of national economy.With the emergence of serious overcapacity in traditional industries such as steel and cement, the upstream industry of the above mentioned industries.& ndash;Refractories have also entered the situation of overcapacity.According to the above data can see, refractory in 2010 after growth peak began to slow in recent years, is just a short pulse in 2013, is one of the most serious in the first quarter this year refractories production dropped 11.67% from a year earlier, it is also directly contributing to the revenue and net profit of listed companies in the sector were down, or even a loss.
