With the next few years and even decades in China to accelerate the construction of road traffic, urbanization and the urbanization strategy of gradual implementation, the 2008 Olympic Games held in Beijing, China to further expand the degree of openness, the tourism industry "cake" big Yuezuo Yue And the people's colorful life of the pursuit of fashion, with reflective materials in China and the world is very optimistic about prospects for the development of the market.
The CAS Institute of Physical and Chemical experts said that reflective materials include reflective film, reflective ink, anti-cursor of paint, reflective cloth, reflective leather, reflective ribbon, reflective safety of silk fabrics, and so on. Reflective material has been able to SLR, mainly in the vast majority of reflective materials contain a high refractive index glass beads, it is precisely because it is there, people will be radio-reflective way back to the original source, a reflection of the reunification.
According to the reflective glass bead materials in the different location, reflective materials can be divided into the exposed-and-two flattened. Is exposed-reflective glass bead in the surface material, beads direct contact with the air. Flattened type is transparent glass beads embedded in the resin, resin and air contacts, such material weathering and can be a reflection Shade, surface dust adhesion difficult, wet weather will not be affected, but the complex structure, the equipment requirements of , The main products are various types of reflective transfer coating of splitting, the use of the highway that is reflective material belonging to this category.
At present, the application of reflective materials mainly in two major market areas, first planned for the market, the civilian market. Plans for the market has now formed a large-scale, civilian market is huge potential for the world's reflective of the U.S. pioneers of 3 M Corporation reflective materials giant good.
The so-called plans for the market generally refers to instructions in accordance with national laws and regulations, the use of reflective materials to the areas, such as public security, transportation, sanitation department staff for their work uniforms, road signs, signs, marking, mines, railways and other field operations staff of clothing , Straps, and so on.
Reflective coatings, including road signs with reflective paint, the return of reflective paint. The traditional symbol of (hot melt paint, cold spray paint) not only need to allocate a lot of input, and easy to produce Diaoqi phenomenon, and do not have reflective properties, similar to the fog covered the ground, exposure to strong light to be barely discernible, and the return of Reflective coating that is sprayed in the general follow-coating the surface layer of glass beads, and its use not only overcome these deficiencies, traffic safety and drivers have protection.
1998 reached 8,733 km of highway, the main route for the road or 140,522 km, 20 million motor vehicles, reflective coatings required each year to 8,000 tons, 2,000 tons for the reflective ink, the total output value reached 200 million yuan. At the same time, from the Department of Traffic Safety statistics show that in 1998 the world's major countries because of the number of traffic accidents killed 601,471 people, China has only 78,067 people in the world. According to comprehensive analysis, the major cities of traffic accidents was significantly higher than that at night the day, accidents peak on the evening of 8 to 10 o'clock this hour, one of the reasons is the road to poor visibility. Reflective of the emergence of a successful resolution to "see" and "see" the traffic problems this evening.
The experts highlighted that the 2008 Olympic Games held in Beijing, the Beijing Centre and major domestic cities and tourist cities, is a show to attract foreign tourists and their image of the best opportunities. Guidance and set a good sign, the handsome new street signs, fresh Tourism signs, traffic signs and bright sound of the stations marked the most effective method is one of these cities not only in every corner Are to include the concept of security alerts, and that was in the complex and the traffic environment with the correct guidance, and to effectively display a city's image and urban management capacity of a good social benefits. And this demand will inevitably will lead to the development of reflective materials market, into a new economic growth points. Beijing street name plates updated only as an example, the implementation of the Beijing Municipal Public Security Traffic Authority of street name plates, because the domestic quality, technical defects, this item from 3 M Company, received several million dollars alone, we can imagine the future with reflective paint And reflective of market prospects.
In addition, the safety of reflective fabric can be produced as sanitation workers and the traffic police straps clothing, improving the safety of employees. It is estimated that only if all staff in Beijing on the retro-fitting clothing 0.02 square meters of reflective fabric, in consumption in more than 10,000 square meters.
The so-called civilian market generally refers to light industry, mines, railways, the students clothing, all types of clothing, Yimao, luggage, and other fields. With the enhancement of people's sense of security, civilian market gradually expanded, only the apparel industry each year to be reflective cloth, reflective leather, reflective Ribbon total of 15 million square meters, while China's current production capacity of not more than 2 million square meters, and nearly 1 / 3 the volume of exports to other countries and regions, the market has great potential.
It is learned that China's reflective materials on the research started in the early 1970s, "July 5", "August 5", the Ministry of Security, Ministry of Communications, Ministry of Railways and other departments concerned have to include the item in planning, organizing research. After nearly 20 years of unremitting efforts, China has been able to mass production of reflective cloth, reflective leather. As SLR technology transfer coating of splitting production more difficult, not supporting production equipment, the quality of domestic products still remain at a low level stage, the highway can not be met, such as market demand for high-quality, 3 M each year in China to import about 20 million U.S. dollars The reflective film.
At present, countries in the development of safety supplies at the same time, pay more attention to the reflective material comfort and aesthetics. Not only a wide variety of substrate, but also from a single color development to the silver grey, yellow, green, blue and other colors.
Particularly worth mentioning is that foreign countries have emerged with high refractive index glass beads of reflective ink can be printed on clothing, and depending on the color printing, will be reflective ink and color fabric raised to close during the day and no ordinary clothing Vary, but when the night bright radiation, the logo immediately arise. Such clothing collection fashion, beauty, security in a, the garment industry to become a new army.
