Fluorination industry has become one of the sub industries with rapid development, technical prospects and development advantages of China's chemical industry, and is known as "gold industry" abroad. With the progress of technology, the application scope of fluorine chemical products is expanding to wider, deeper and higher-end fields. In 2011, due to the sharp rise in the price of the whole industrial chain, the output value of the whole industry increased to 30.2 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 41.1% and 76.5% in 2012. With the sustained and rapid development of economy, the annual growth rate of fluoride demand in China will be maintained at about 30%. In particular, the rapid development of automobile, electronic information, construction and petrochemical industry provides a broad market space for fluoride chemical industry.

The fluorine chemical industry does not take oil and natural gas as the main raw material, and has little correlation with the oil price. The increasing tension of global energy provides a huge space for the development of fluorine silicon materials. Fluorine products are new high-performance chemical materials with complex production technology, and the overall price is higher than that of materials with oil and natural gas as raw materials. With the rising price of petroleum products, the price gap between the two is gradually narrowing, which provides a broad space for fluorine materials to expand the application market. The global total production capacity of fluoropolymers is about 220000 tons / year, and China's production capacity is about 40000 tons / year, accounting for 18% of the world's total production capacity. It has become the second largest producer of fluoropolymers in the world. With the enhancement of economic strength and the improvement of people's living standards, the growth rate of China's demand for fluorine products will be much higher than the global average. In the 10 years from 2010 to 2020, the global demand for fluoropolymers will maintain the same growth rate, and the global average demand growth rate of fluorine products will be more than 3%. It is estimated that during the Eleventh Five Year Plan period, China's fluoropolymer production capacity can maintain an annual growth rate of 15%, and the production capacity will reach 70000 tons / year in 2010, with a total output of nearly 50000 tons / year.

According to the 2016 development research and development trend analysis report of China's fluorine chemical industry released by China industry research network, from the perspective of the prospects of various fluorine products, halothane has entered a recession period, and its substitutes will have a broad market; Fluororesin has entered the mature stage, and the competition of the main product polytetrafluoroethylene has intensified; Fluororubber has entered a growth period. With the development of China's automobile industry, fluororubber will increase significantly; Fluorine coating will grow with the growth of construction and chemical industry; The development space of fluorine-containing fine chemicals is broad. The gross profit margin of domestic CFC substitutes and CFC products is basically maintained at the level of more than 20%. For fluororubber, polyperfluoroethylene propylene and even fluorofine chemicals, due to strong market demand and weak competition, it will still maintain a high gross profit level of more than 30% in the next three years.
