September 23, China National Textile and Apparel Council convened a meeting in Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province, to appraise Zhongfu Shenying’s Dry-jet Wet Spinning Carbon Fiber Production Process and Equipment. A report from Zhongfu Shenying was delivered and accreditation was reached after discussion and assessment.
Dry-jet Wet Spinning is a process designed for PAN-based carbon fiber precursor, boasting for its high-efficiency, low cost and stable performance over Wet Spinning Process. More than 80% carbon fiber in the world are produced with this process but it was acquired only by a few companies, difficult to grasp. Zhongfu Shenying took two years since it launched a project in 2008 to develop its SYT 45 carbon fiber before it finally acquired this process.
Chairman of
Lianyungang Yingyou Group, Zhang Guolian commented that it was a brand-new
process and Zhongfu Shenying was the first in China to acquire it. It would
surely help to produce high-quality carbon fiber suitable for such high-end
applications as Aerospace, Nuclear Power, etc.
It is said ZhongFu
Shenying’s SYT45 (equivalent to Toray’s T700) production line is under stable
operation now, with an annual capacity of 2,500 tons. The new process and
production line will greatly improve Zhongfu Shenying’s production capacity and
market competence.
