Benefiting from the development of downstream industries, the development prospects of the bisetherfluorene industry are good

Bisetherfluorene (BPEF) is a monomer raw material with good heat resistance and optical properties. It is mainly used in mobile phone touch screens, high-end optical resin lenses, LCD screens and other fields. It is currently used in camera lenses, unmanned aerial vehicles and other fields. Camera lenses, vehicle lenses and other terminal fields. Benefiting from the development of terminal industries, the application demand for bisether fluorene is rising, and the industry development prospects are good.

Machine vision includes drones, security, smart homes, smart driving and other fields, and is the main application field of bisetherfluorene. Benefiting from the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology, the global machine vision market continues to rise, growing from US$8.2 billion in 2017 to more than US$10 billion in 2021. Machine vision has high requirements for the temperature resistance and light transmittance of lenses. Bisetherfluorene can meet the requirements, so the industry has good development prospects.

There are two main production routes for bisether fluorene, one is a one-step method, using 9-fluorenone and phenoxyethanol as raw materials; the other is a two-step method, using 9-fluorenone. my country’s Zhongxin Fluorine Materials independently improved the one-step process to achieve the advantages of high yield, low cost, and less waste, making it highly competitive in the market. Globally, the production technology of double ether fluorene is mainly controlled by Japanese and Korean companies. Representative companies include Osaka Gas, Mitsubishi, Teijin, Sumitomo, etc.

According to the “China Bisether Fluorene (BPEF) Industry Application Market Demand and Development Opportunities Research Report 2021-2026” released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that since Zhongxin Fluoro Materials achieved technological independence, its production capacity has continued to increase, reaching 1,500 tons by 2021, and there are still 2,000 tons of projects under construction, and production is expected to be achieved in 2022. Dietherfluorene can be used in the production of photosensitive polyimide and optical resin, and the domestic market demand is about 4,000 tons. In addition, bisetherfluorene is also relatively popular in the overseas market. my country’s bisetherfluorene products are mainly exported to Japan and are mainly supplied to Mitsubishi Gas, Osaka Gas, Honshu Chemical and other companies.

Photosensitive polyimide has excellent photosensitivity and thermal stability. It is used in microelectronics, display panels, optoelectronics and other fields, and has high market demand. The global photosensitive polyimide market size will be approximately US$150 million in 2020, and is expected to grow to approximately US$310 million by 2025. Photosensitive polyimide is one of the important application fields of bisetherfluorene. With the rising demand for its application, it has also driven the rapid development of the bisetherfluorene industry.

Industrial analysts said that bisetherfluorene has excellent performance and a wide range of applications. It has high application demand in developed countries such as Europe, the United States, and Japan. , there is currently less demand in the country. In terms of production, due to the high technical threshold, there are few manufacturing companies in my country. One of the larger companies is Zhongxin Fluoro Materials. Zhongxin Fluoro Materials has achieved technological independence and will continue to expand its production capacity in the future. In addition to meeting domestic market demand, Also exported to the Japanese market.
