2023
Composite Materials Innovation Application Forum
Successfully held

On March 9, the 2023 Composite Material Innovation and Application Forum hosted by Lingao Consulting was successfully held at Shangri-La Hotel, Ningbo, with the theme of "Focusing on the 14th Five-Year Plan and Detonating User Needs", the conference topics mainly focused on the innovation and development of three circular materials fields, including composite material application trends, circular economy and recycling, and new energy vehicle material innovation.

In the 2023 National People‘s Congress and the National People‘s Congress "Government Work Report", it was proposed that:
The main expected goals of this year‘s development include the continued decline in energy consumption per unit of GDP and the emission of major pollutants, the focus on controlling fossil energy consumption, and the stable improvement of ecological environment quality.
Promote the green transformation of development methods. Improve policies to support green development, develop circular economy, promote resource conservation and intensive utilization, promote energy conservation and carbon reduction in key areas, and continue to fight the battle of blue sky, clear water and pure land.

2023 economic recovery is imperative, with the rapid development of the national economy, the transformation of economic structure, the acceleration of new energy, environmental protection, high-end equipment manufacturing and other emerging industries, domestic demand for high-performance fiber composite materials will become increasingly strong, the development of circular economy will become a new round of economic consumption key point. At this stage, China‘s FRP and composite materials industry is facing a new period of great development, such as large-scale municipal construction in the process of urbanization, the utilization and large-scale development of new energy, the introduction of environmental protection policies, the development of the automobile industry, large-scale railway construction, large aircraft projects, etc. Under the traction of huge market demand, the development of composite materials industry will have a broad space for development.

At the meeting, Ningbo Topcentral New Materials Co., Ltd., Wanhua Chemical, Kumho Rili and other well-known material companies showed everyone the latest applications of recycled materials, recycled materials and processes and new materials in the automotive field. Zhongtong Bus, Volvo Cars, SAIC Volkswagen, Faurecia and other OEMs and suppliers shared the opportunities and challenges of material flame retardancy, environmental protection, and composite materials in the application of new energy vehicles and battery packs. The topic is novel and highly technical, attracting the active participation of more than 150 automotive OEMs, parts factories and composite material production and R&D enterprises.

In the conference, Ma Yiming, founder of Topcentral^®, delivered a speech with the theme of "Exploration and Innovation of Jianfeng Green Low-carbon Environmental Protection Materials in Automobiles and New Energy with Traceable Carbon Footprint".

Mr. Ma gave a wonderful speech on the current situation of the global waste plastic industry, the development process of carbon neutrality, the new opportunities and challenges given to plastics by "dual carbon", and the exploration and innovation of PCRBlend™ in automobiles and new energy. As a growing high-tech enterprise, at the same time, Topcentral^® is also a new material enterprise focusing on green and low-carbon functional materials, bio-based and degradable materials and new material modification research and development and technical services, has found great potential in the field of new materials, but opportunities and challenges coexist, in the face of the new challenges and new opportunities of the times, we will seize the opportunities, meet the challenges, strengthen the communication and contact with various platforms and industries, comprehensively analyze market demand, dock enterprise products, and constantly innovate to meet market demand.

In the new energy vehicle recycling materials industry, new materials as a key area of energy conservation and carbon reduction, technology research and development and product innovation need to be continuously promoted, and every brand enterprise needs to actively seek cooperation, follow the trend, and contribute to energy conservation and carbon reduction.

The one-and-a-half-day conference invited more than 300 industry people to participate, many experts have delivered speeches and speeches in the conference, the topic is closely related to the theme of the conference, not only analyze the need for improvement in the field of composite materials, but also supplement the blind areas that are usually not touched in this field, many experts actively spoke at the meeting, expressed their opinions, took this opportunity to learn from each other, after the conference, many new ideas in the conference are endless.

As the vanguard, brand enterprises in the field of new energy and new materials need to assume more social responsibilities, combine major policy policies, boost consumer confidence, lead consumption growth, and let enterprises serve the market and empower society.

At the end of the forum, the organizer led the participants to two of the top 100 local auto parts enterprises in Ningbo. This visit not only enabled the participants to experience the advanced and intelligent parts production site, but also further advanced and intelligent parts production sites, but also further laid out new product markets and technology applications by industry giants. In order to promote the development of the automotive industry and composite materials, it has played a great role in promoting the development of materials in the era of new energy vehicles.
