中国氟化物材料月报

Chinese government has promulgated some policies and legislations, such as the Guided Catalogue for Industrial Structure Adjustment (2011) and the 12^th Five-year Development Plan of China Fluorine Chemical Industry (2011-2015), to encourage the development of fluoropolymer industry in China. Driven by the booming market, resource advantage and Chinese government's encourage, Chinese fluoropolymer industry attracts more and more  foreign investment in resent years. Especially in Chinese PVDF industry, some multinationals have planned to invest in it and  it will maintain rapid growth in the 12^th Five-year Plan Period.

Simultaneously, driven by the soaring price and tight supply of fluorite from 2010 to 2011, many fluoride companies are seeking for upstream integration. In March 2012, Dongyue Group claimed that the company is in the process of acquiring two mining areas' exploration licenses in Wulate Middle Banner, Bayannaoer City, Inner Mongolia. In addition, Zhejiang Yongtai released that the company had completed the acquisition of 20% share of Yongfei Chemical, who is specialized in the manufacturing and sale of HF.

However, influenced by the depression of economy at home and abroad, the market situation of fluorine chemical downstream industries is dismal, which leads to the week demand for most fluorite chemicals from January to March 2012. In March 2012, the prices of most fluorite chemicals keep falling.
