The so-called chemical intermediates refer to the intermediate products produced by using coal tar or petroleum products as chemical raw materials to manufacture dyes, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, resins, additives, plasticizers, etc. China refers to the raw materials and intermediates used in the production of 11 major categories of fine chemicals as chemical intermediates. These 11 categories of fine chemicals are divided into: pesticides, dyes, coatings, pigments, reagents and high-purity substances, information chemicals, food and feed additives, adhesives, catalysts and various additives, chemical drugs and daily chemicals, functional polymers in polymer materials.
There are many types of chemical intermediates, which can be divided into pharmaceutical intermediates, pesticide intermediates, pigment/dye intermediates, and other chemical intermediates according to their application fields. According to market statistics, pharmaceutical intermediates account for up to 45%, pesticide intermediates account for 28%, dye intermediates account for 3%, and other types of chemical intermediates account for 24%.
Most regions around the world are accelerating the pace of urban construction, with building scales continuously expanding, driving the growth of demand for paints and coatings, and driving the increase in demand for related dye chemical intermediates; Agricultural development is an important issue for countries around the world, and ensuring food supply cannot be separated from the application of agricultural chemical products. The demand for chemical intermediates in agricultural chemical products such as pesticides is huge; At the same time, the rapid development of the global pharmaceutical industry has driven an increase in demand for the use of chemical intermediates in drug production. From this, it can be seen that the rapid growth of chemical intermediates in various application fields has jointly driven the growth of global demand for chemical intermediates, while also enriching the product categories of chemical intermediates.
At present, fine chemical products such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, chemical reagents, adhesives, coatings, surfactants, food additives, fragrances, various additives, dyes, catalysts, etc., which have specific application properties, multiple synthesis steps, complex reactions, and low output value, are further processed from chemical intermediates. Therefore, chemical intermediates are an important foundation for the production of fine chemical products. The rapid development of the global fine chemical industry also drives the growth of demand and the advancement of production technology in the global chemical intermediate industry.
Promote transformation and upgrading through technological innovation. Chemical intermediates are an important foundation for the production of fine chemical products, and the rapid development of the global fine chemical industry has driven the growth of demand and the advancement of production technology in the global chemical intermediate industry. The discovery, production, and application of intermediates rely on technological assistance, and collaborative innovation actions must be implemented to break through key core technologies for industrialization and form a modern chemical industry cluster. To support the construction of innovative public service platforms, promote the full coverage of key industrial chains, guide enterprises to increase research and development investment, promote the full coverage of scientific research activities in industrial enterprises above designated size, support leading and backbone enterprises to establish national and provincial research and development platforms, and support innovative enterprises in the industrial chain to collaborate with universities, research institutes, and upstream and downstream enterprises for technological breakthroughs. Further improve the mechanism for transforming scientific and technological achievements, accelerate the transformation of innovative achievements, jointly promote the transformation and upgrading of the chemical industry, and achieve high-quality development of the fine chemical industry.
