Research and Markets: A China Fluorine Refrigerant Industry Report: Explore the Capacity of China's Domestic Enterprises in Major Fluorine Refrigerant Products

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/649bd3/china_fluorine_ref) has announced the addition of the "China Fluorine Refrigerant Industry Report, 2010" report to their offering.

With the damage to the ozone layer, some fluorine refrigerant products have been or are being forced to phase out, and new environment-friendly refrigerants are being developed and put into application.

China, as a developing country, lags behind the developed countries in the effort to eliminate fluorine refrigerant products. However, China is actively implementing export restrictions towards fluorite and hydrofluoric acid. In this sense, the fluorine refrigerant industry of China is expected to grow in the short term.

This report not only highlights the operation environment, development outlook and key enterprises in China's fluorine refrigerant industry, but it also probes into the demand & supply, and price trends of the major four fluorine refrigerants R22, R134a, R125 and R32.

Key Products:

China's major fluorine refrigerant products include R22, R134a, R125 and R32, the total capacity of which reached 854,000 tons in 2010. In particular, R22 is most widely used as refrigerant for household air-conditioner, with the capacity totalling 608,000 tons; R134a as refrigerant for auto air-conditioner, with the capacity totalling 126,000 tons; R125 and R32 are mainly used for producing R410-mixed refrigerant, with the capacity of 69,200 tons and 50,500 tons; R410a, used as refrigerant for household air-conditioner, has become an essential substitute of R22.

Product Development:

Regarding R22, R134a, R125 and R32, Dongyue Group boasts the largest enterprise in terms of product structure and total capacity. In 2010, the capacity of the company realized 178,000 tons, of which, the capacity of R22 reached 150,000 tons, ranking the company the first place in R22 capacity in China.

The runner-up went to Juhua Group Corporation, with the capacity totalling 134,000 tons.

Jiangsu Meilan Chemical Group and Sinochem Lantian, lead the way in the R125 and R134a market segments, with a market share of 31.7% and 27.8%.

Shanghai 3F New Materials falls behind when it comes to the total capacity of fluorine refrigerant, but it holds a dominating position in China's fluorine refrigerant industry dependent.
