It is easy to see that environmental protection products will be the general trend in the future from most industry practitioners of the "two sessions" in 2018. Last year, with the EU's ROHS directive, the development and large-scale adoption of eco-friendly wires and cables have become an international trend. At present, the application of flame-retardant and fire-proof cables at home and abroad has been expanded to many fields, such as mining, general rubber sheathed cables, elevator cables, cables for household appliances have different degrees of flame-retardant requirements.
1、 Ecology and environmental protection
It is not difficult for most industry practitioners to see that environmental protection products will be the general trend in the future. Last year, with the EU's ROHS directive, the development and large-scale adoption of eco-friendly wires and cables have become an international trend. At present, the application of flame-retardant and fire-proof cables at home and abroad has been expanded to many fields, such as mining, general rubber sheathed cables, elevator cables, cables for household appliances have different degrees of flame-retardant requirements.
At present, Beijing, Shanghai and other key cities have clearly stipulated that PVC wires and cables are not allowed to be used in important buildings to avoid a large number of smoke and chlorine gas in case of fire, causing more casualties. The use of halogen-free low smoke crosslinked polyolefin insulated wires and cables has become a local regulation in these areas. With the increase of people's awareness of environmental protection and safety, eco-environmental protection cable will be the product direction of future industry development.
In addition, it can not be ignored that the primary requirement of most major projects and projects for products in China is environmental protection. Cable products as an important supporting facilities of economic construction, it is undoubted that the products move towards environmental protection.
2、 Specialization
It is imperative for China's cable products to be specialized. In fact, at the beginning of the article, we will talk about that the domestic cable industry is crying out to "occupy the high-end market", which can basically be said to occupy the special cable market. At present, the threshold of special cable is high, the profit margin is high, and the competition is moderate. Therefore, the high-end market is undoubtedly a piece of "fat meat" in front of the domestic cable industry, but whether it can be eaten or not, or how many enterprises can eat it, there is still a question mark.
"The so-called specialization of wire and cable products is that compared with ordinary wires and cables, their relative performance is superior, they can adapt to special environment and have special use. For example, on the premise of meeting the fire resistance performance, Far East Cable selects a material -- porcelain silicon rubber, which can be used in frequent bending and moving occasions, and successfully develops a new type of high-efficiency fire-resistant cable, which can be used normally within 180 ℃, and can be energized normally within 1000 ℃, and at the same time, the cable also has the characteristics of torsion resistance; The 115m superconducting cable for international thermonuclear fusion developed by Baiyin Nonferrous Changtong Co., Ltd. is twisted; the composite high conductivity aluminum alloy power cable with independent intellectual property rights, which can completely replace the international similar products, is developed by Changfeng Group Co., Ltd.
As special cables can meet the needs of special environment and special occasions, and the production of special cables requires strong equipment, the threshold is relatively high, so special cables will become the "Darling" of the future market, and each capable cable enterprise will strive to "compete for the pet".
3、 High pressure, ultra-high pressure
As a kind of special cable, the reason why UHV cable is introduced separately is that UHV cable is "a unique branch" in the future market demand, and the construction of UHV cable rises to the height of national strategy. In this year's "two sessions", the issue of UHV was discussed separately, which means that the construction of UHV will have a sound landing. This has brought huge waves to the cable production industry, and the demand for UHV cable will be strong.
Therefore, in terms of industrial products, due to the impact of economic development and urban construction, the demand for medium and low voltage power cable products will gradually decrease in the future. In order to develop the market, the enterprises should reduce the investment in medium and low voltage power cables. In the future, the market will be the rapid growth of the demand for high-voltage and ultra-high voltage power cables. High voltage and ultra-high voltage power cables are the general trend of the market. Therefore, enterprises should strengthen the research and development of high-voltage and ultra-high voltage technology to improve the overall added value of power cables.
4、 Refinement
In the so-called product refinement, the raw materials are more refined, and less raw materials can have more powerful performance. For example, the skeleton fiber optic cable developed by recent special information can be laid by means of pipeline, overhead, etc., with small diameter, light weight and good lateral pressure resistance; the fiber can be laid at any time in the middle of the process, convenient for construction and installation; the fiber density is high (small volume); the dry structure, without oil paste pollution, can be identified by color bar. A team of Australian and American scientists have successfully designed the world's thinnest nano wire, which is only one thousandth of the thickness of human hair, but its conductivity is comparable to that of traditional copper wire.
