Dendrimers have broad application prospects. Weihai Chenyuan successfully started the process of localization in the Chinese market
Dendrimers, also known as body-shaped polymers and dendrimers, refer to linear polymers with dendritic units on each repeating unit. The representative product is polyamide-amine dendrimers (PAMAM). ). Dendrimers have a highly branched three-dimensional structure and a large number of end groups that can be modified. They are fourth-generation polymer materials with great development potential. Their downstream applications include coatings, inks, water treatment, nanomaterials, and plastic modification. , biomedicine, rail transportation, national defense and military industry and other fields.
In the field of coatings, dendrimers can be used in UV-curable coatings, environmentally friendly coatings, water-based coatings, architectural coatings, and industrial coatings manufacturing scenarios. Compared with traditional coatings such as polyacrylic acid and epoxy resin, dendritic polymer coatings have better wear resistance, anti-corrosion, anti-collision, bullet-proof, explosion-proof, environmental protection and other properties. The core indicators can be more than 10 times that of traditional materials. In the future, under the background of gradual upgrading of downstream market requirements, the dendritic polymer coating market has huge development potential.
In the field of water treatment, dendrimers can be used in scenarios such as advanced treatment of heavy metal ion-containing wastewater from electronics factories, papermaking and dye wastewater treatment, and petroleum wastewater treatment due to their strong adsorption capacity; in the field of biomedicine, dendrimers can be used Used as drug carriers, gene transfection carriers, nuclear magnetic resonance molecular contrast agents, etc. According to the “Research Report on Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospects of China’s Dendrimer Industry from 2023 to 2027” released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that the application prospects of dendritic polymers are relatively broad. In the future, with the rapid development of the downstream market, it is expected that by 2025, the scale of dendritic polymers in my country may exceed 10 billion yuan.
At present, the domestic companies that are developing dendrimer market mainly include Weihai Chenyuan Molecular New Materials, Xi’an Qiyue Biotechnology, Nanjing Genasi New Materials, etc. Among them, Weihai Chenyuan Molecular New Materials is the first company in China and even in Asia to realize the industrial production of dendritic polymer materials. Through continuous research and development of advanced technology and continuous improvement of production processes, the company has successfully developed more than 20 models of dendritic polymer products. , breaking the monopoly of leading European and American companies in the dendrimer market and starting the process of localization.
Industry analysts said that dendrimers are the fourth generation of polymer materials and have good low With its characteristics of viscosity, high solubility, miscibility, and high reactivity, it can be widely used in coatings, inks, water treatment, nanomaterials, plastic modification, biomedicine, national defense, and other fields, and has good market development prospects. After continuous research and development, my country has already realized the industrial production of dendrimers, and the localization process is gradually accelerating. At the same time, as the development prospects of the dendritic polymer industry continue to emerge in the future, more companies in my country will enter the market, and the level of localization will maintain a rapid growth trend.
