生物基涂料在2013亞太綠色工業(yè)涂料峰會上 引起熱烈討論

中國新型涂料網(wǎng)訊：
    諸多綠色原材料廠商在2013亞太綠色工業(yè)涂料峰會上表示會加強(qiáng)生物基研發(fā)以及在涂料行業(yè)的推廣，這些企業(yè)意識到石油價格的起伏波動直接影響到下游企業(yè)的原材料價格及供應(yīng)，而且石油并不是用之不竭的，而且不能再生。

    一些有遠(yuǎn)見的企業(yè)已在多年前著手生物基的研究，拜耳材料科學(xué)，湛新樹脂，貝科工業(yè)涂料以及巴斯夫甚至將生物基應(yīng)用作為未來戰(zhàn)略發(fā)展。中國是世界上石油進(jìn)口大國，石油危機(jī)對國民經(jīng)濟(jì)的影響將在未來幾年逐漸顯現(xiàn).

    在2013亞太綠色工業(yè)涂料峰會的小組討論環(huán)節(jié)，多數(shù)企業(yè)都認(rèn)為亞洲和中國是全球最具潛力的生物基技術(shù)發(fā)展地區(qū)和國家。聚乳酸，琥珀酸，多元醇以及聚羥基脂肪酸都能以生物基路線生產(chǎn)，而且技術(shù)較為成熟，最大的優(yōu)點(diǎn)是性能上可以和石油基產(chǎn)品相媲美。

    2013年初，Corbion和Perstorp成功開發(fā)含丙交酯和己內(nèi)酯的共聚物。Bioamber公司在中國尋求在涂料，聚氨酯和塑料方面的合作并且致力于亞太市場的開發(fā)。Ecoat -- 法國一家創(chuàng)新的綠色涂料解決方案提供商于今年在中國開設(shè)代表處，更好的服務(wù)亞洲客戶。而作為卷材涂料的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者，貝科工業(yè)涂料更是將生物基在卷材涂料上的應(yīng)用寫進(jìn)了可持續(xù)發(fā)展報告。

Sept 24 2013, Shanghai China, several green raw material suppliers mentioned at Green Industrial Coating Asia 2013 that they would strengthen the R&D and promotion of bio-based concept in coating market. The ups and downs of oil price leads to the raw material price increase for the downstream chemical market and oil shall be used up in one day.

Some far-sighted chemical companies already started the bio-based research years ago, Bayer Material Science, Allnex, Becker Industrial Coating, BASF, even position bio-based application as Future strategy. China is one of the world largest oil consumption countries, the effect of oil crisis shall be more obvious in future. 

In the panel discussion, majority of companies regarded China as the most potential country to develop bio-based technology. Poly-Lactic Acid, Succinic Acid, BDO, PHAs are already produced in bio-based route with mature techniques and the performance can also compete with Petroleum-based products.

Purac and Perstorp already work together to develop Caprolactone Lactide Co-Product at beginning of 2013.Bioamber are seeking opportunity to work with China coating, PU, plastics partners and move its strategy to Asia. Ecoat France-An innovative leader in Eco-friendly Coatings  opened a new representative office in China this year to better serve Asia market. Becker follows sustainable program and considers bio-content raw materials in coil coating.

At the beginning of 2013, China State Council has put forward “Planning for Biotech Development” blueprint. Biobased industry is not only a new growth point for companies, but also a national strategy for China.
