Material Empire

Secretary Qin is engaged in polyvinyl chloride?

Yu Kexiu interjected, he had heard the conversation between Qin Hai and Yu Huiguo just now. Although he is not a technical person, he still knows something about the technical innovations in the factory. Hearing Qin Hai talk about the issue of polyvinyl chloride modification, he was no less shocked than Yu Huiguo.

Qin Hai shook his head and said with a smile: Where, I only paid some attention to various materials and processes because I participated in the localization of automobile materials. What I just said are all layman's terms. I also need to invite the factory manager and Chief Yu please correct me a lot.”

No layman, no layman, Secretary Qin, what you said is very professional! Yu Huiguo said repeatedly.

Actually, our Xia Gong is the real professional. He is a teacher of the Department of Chemical Engineering of Pujiang Jiaotong University. Qin Hai pushed Xia Yangjie out. His purpose of bringing Xia Yangjie was to deceive others and not to push him at this time. Come out, when will you wait.

Xia Yangjie also had the consciousness of being cannon fodder. He habitually pushed his glasses and said:

Resin modification is a very promising research direction. Chemical companies around the world have invested a lot of manpower and material resources in researching various modification methods. Taking polyvinyl chloride as an example, the current common modification purposes are mainly around Improve processing performance, improve heat resistance, increase strength, increase toughness and make foam materials, etc., the method is mainly to adjust the process flow and add modifiers, etc. Of course, each method requires a lot of Theoretical research and experiments cost a lot.”

So, are you really here to cooperate with us? Yu Kexiu heard something. If the other party just came to cheat for food and drink, there is no need to do so much homework. In this working group, there are actually two experts who understand PVC production, which is obviously well prepared.

We have probably finished reading the production equipment of the Jinnan Factory. If Director Yu has nothing else to do, we can talk about cooperation now. Qin Hai said with a smile.

Okay, shall we talk here, or go back to the conference room? Yu Kexiu asked.

Qin Haidao: There's no need to go back to the conference room, just find a place here and talk about it. In case there is anything related to equipment, we can still talk while watching.

No problem. Yu Kexiu agreed happily. Since the other party came to cooperate with him sincerely, Yu Kexiu's view of them is naturally very different. Yesterday he was thinking about how to perfunctory, but today, he was eager to hear the other party's thoughts.

When a group of people came to the workshop office, the director of the workshop hurriedly called for some chairs to be brought over for Yu Kexiu, Qin Hai and others to sit down. Sitting opposite Qin Hai, Yu Kexiu asked straight to the point: Secretary Qin, what kind of cooperation do you want to cooperate with us, you can talk about it now.

Qin Haidao: It's very simple. We are now engaged in the localization of auto parts, which involves a large number of PVC plastic parts. We couldn't find PVC products that meet the requirements in the domestic market, so we came to Jintang , I want to see if we can provide such a product here.”

When Qin Hai said this, Xia Yangjie justly handed a stack of materials to Yu Kexiu, which were the performance requirements of Pusang automobile plastic parts proposed by the German side, including material density, tensile strength, impact strength, Bending strength, etc., there are dozens of items listed.

Yu Kexiu took the documents, looked at them a few times, and handed them over to Yu Huiguo. Yu Kexiu couldn't understand this specific technical index, and only Yu Huiguo could see the mystery.

Hey... Yu Huiguo flipped through the materials, and the corner of his mouth gasped, Secretary Qin, Xia Gong, the requirements for these materials are too high, far exceeding the level of our existing products.

This is what the Germans have already done. Qin Hai replied.

Our technology can't be compared with that of the Germans. Yu Kexiu said, How many years have they developed, and how many years have we developed? This gap really exists.

Qin Haidao: I don't agree with the words of the director of the factory. The principle of PVC modification is no secret, nothing more than filling, blending, composite reinforcement and copolymerization, grafting, chlorination, and crosslinking. The difficulty lies in the selection of various modifiers. The foreign method is to constantly use various materials to conduct experiments to see which material can be used for modification to achieve the best results. At this point , everyone’s starting point is the same, what the Germans can do, we can do the same.”

That's what I said, but it's not easy to do it in practice. Yu Huiguo said.

Yu Huiguo had seen all these methods mentioned by Qin Hai in academic journals, and knew that what Qin Hai said was correct. For the method of blending modification, it is nothing more than mixing various substances in pure polyvinyl chloride, such as ABS, MBS, CPE, NBR and so on. The performance impact of adding these substances has been discussed by some scholars, but the specific amount of mixing, feeding sequence, pressure control, temperature control, etc., all need to be determined through experiments.

The cost of doing these experiments is very high, but no one can guarantee the final results. It is possible to obtain a modified product with excellent performance, thereby earning a lot of profits for the enterprise. It is also possible to fail and waste a lot of research and development investment.

On the one hand, foreign companies have relatively abundant funds and can afford the cost of failure; on the other hand, the market competition pressure is extremely high, and there is no way out without innovation. In this case, the investment of various companies in modification research is very high. Huge, and the results achieved are brilliant. In contrast, the domestic resin industry is still in a state of short supply, and business leaders are not willing to create side effects and pursue invisible profits, so there is no motivation for research and development, resulting in single and obsolete product varieties, and many modified products can only rely on for import.

The situation that Jinnan Factory is now facing is the same. Qin Hai put forward the demand for materials in the name of the auto material localization working group, but Jinnan Factory dare not undertake such a task. At least in Yu Huiguo's view, these new materials are just moons in the water and flowers in the mirror. They look beautiful, but it is extremely difficult to obtain them.

The current production tasks in our factory are very tight. I am afraid that we don't have the energy to make modified materials. Yu Kexiu understood the difficulty of this matter from Yu Huiguo's attitude. Regarding the modification, he couldn't help retreating.

Qin Haidao: Director Yu, don't rush to refute this matter, it's better to think carefully about it. At present, the supply of PVC in China is really tight, and your life is probably better. But with the Pujiang, Jinling Waiting for the introduction of several sets of large-scale polyvinyl chloride equipment, the supply and demand situation in the market will inevitably change. If an enterprise with a limited production scale like our Jinnan factory does not have some differentiated products, it may be eliminated in the future.

this……

Qin Hai's words touched Yu Kexiu's heart. He turned his head to look at his subordinates, and found that everyone's faces showed a bit of worry.

At that time, the annual production of PVC in the country was only over 500,000 tons, and there were more than 70 production enterprises. The average output of each factory was less than 10,000 tons, and the production scale of Jinnan Chemical Plant was no more than that. As polyvinyl chloride is more and more widely used in production and life, the country has to import a large amount of polyvinyl chloride from abroad every year, and the pressure on foreign exchange is very high. Under such circumstances, the Ministry of Chemical Industry presided over the introduction of several sets of large-scale polyvinyl chloride equipment from Japan, Germany and other countries. For example, the equipment introduced by a company in Pujiang has an annual production capacity of 200,000 tons. The supply and demand pattern of the domestic PVC market.

Jinnan Factory is in the polyvinyl chloride industry, so it is naturally very concerned about this industry dynamics. Yu Kexiu knows that after these large sets of equipment are put into operation, the living environment of medium-sized enterprises with an annual output of less than 10,000 tons will deteriorate sharply. If a new outlet cannot be found in time, the products will be unsalable and the enterprise will suffer losses. predicted.

Secretary Qin is indeed an expert. He not only understands technology, but also is so proficient in business operations. Yu Kexiu said with a wry smile, Listening to what you said, if we don't cooperate with you, the future will be a dead end.

Haha, that's not enough. Qin Hai laughed, We're not here to send charcoal in the snow, we're just here to make the icing on the cake. Now the country is vigorously developing the automobile industry, and the production of polyvinyl chloride products suitable for automobiles The market will become wider and wider in the future. If Jinnan Factory can enter this field first, the profits it can earn in the future will definitely be much more than it is now.

We all understand this truth. However, this bowl of rice for you is not so easy to eat. As far as the performance requirements you put forward... Section Chief Yu, do you think we can achieve it? Yu Kexiu said to Yu Huiguo asked.

People have no long-term concerns, but they must have near-term worries. Yu Kexiu understands this truth. That's why Yu Kexiu was so interested when he found out that Qin Hai might become his partner. However, Yu Kexiu had no idea whether his own company could produce the modified materials Qin Hai requested.

Hearing Yu Kexiu's question, Yu Huiguo also shook his head and said, I can't figure it out now.

Qin Haidao: I can answer a little bit of this question. I have inspected the equipment of Jinnan Factory just now, and these equipment can meet the requirements for the production of modified materials. What needs to be done now is to conduct experiments on modifiers.

That's all... Yu Huiguo repeated Qin Hai's words in a self-deprecating tone. He said, Secretary Qin doesn't understand the difficulties of our company. If we want to conduct experiments, we need funds for experiments. But...

Having said that, he set his sights on Yu Kexiu. The amount of funds for the experiment depends on Yu Kexiu's determination, which is not something that Yu Huiguo can decide.

The third update, I owed one update yesterday, and made it up today. Chengzi keeps in mind the updates that were owed in the previous period, and strives to make up for them one by one before the end of the month. Orange has nothing else, but there is still a little bit of integrity.
