The strong market demand, the increase in supply of raw materials and technology progress as a "troika", pull the fast lane of synthetic rubber industry in China. In 2008 an annual output of 2 million tons of can break through the barrier, become the second only to the United States after the world's second largest producer of synthetic rubber, synthetic rubber industry in China in 2009 under the pull of the country to expand domestic demand policy, annual production capacity is expected to reach 2.5 million tons, an increase of about 25%. "But it is worth noting that the synthetic rubber industry overcapacity crisis moved closer." When it comes to New Year new plan, just for a second term as Chinese synthetic rubber industry association of the new council secretary general JiRunTong tells a reporter, "curb overcapacity, which is a new task faced by the synthetic rubber industry, is also a priority for the current and future a period."  
       In China has for many years to become the world's largest rubber consumption, natural rubber's far more than 75%, synthetic rubber, as high as 40% or more of the background, the external dependency to speed up the development of synthetic rubber industry in China, is undoubtedly wise. However, with the rapid development of production capacity, SBS, styrene butadiene rubber, butadiene rubber and neoprene has started to present an oversupply situation. JiRunTong is introduced, according to the synthetic rubber association statistics, at present our country styrene-butadiene rubber annual capacity of 1.015 million tons, proposed construction unit annual production capacity of 550000 tons; Butadiene rubber production capacity of 575000 tons, proposed construction unit annual production capacity of 330000 tons. If these capacity once released, is bound to cause market disruption, to cause significant damage to synthetic rubber industry and rubber processing industry. Therefore, synthetic rubber association has begun actively called for attention and recognition by national relevant department such as enterprises, excess capacity, at the same time to strengthen the propaganda and coordination, efforts to guide the industry to avoid excess capacity in crisis.  
      JiRunTong points out, cannot because synthetic rubber imports, means that the domestic market gap is big, blind investment, the new project. Internationalization of China's rubber processing industry has, many foreign enterprises to come to China to build rubber processing plants, form a complete set in its raw materials are mostly from abroad. This is one of the reasons for the high synthetic rubber imports in China, not import of synthetic rubber in the domestic production, but people used to use imported products. A lot of foreign tire company, for example, they only use the rubber material of the company, the no Chinese synthetic rubber. So, he reminded the enterprise, must understand the market supply and demand situation, reasonably and orderly to the construction of the new device, and further increase efficiency of existing devices. 
      Another priority of synthetic rubber industry this year is to improve the product quality. "Before production capacity is insufficient, the contradiction is not very prominent. With the increase of production capacity, supply exceeds demand, improve the quality of the product is placed on the agenda." JiRunTong tells a reporter, just synthetic rubber powers at present in our country, is not a synthetic rubber power, even if the production more than the United States, after the "twelfth five-year" will become the world's largest producer of synthetic rubber, product quality, variety, brand is not completely beyond us. Therefore, adjustment of product structure, improve product quality, foster the international famous brand, is a synthetic rubber industry in China is facing a major issue.
 
At the same time, the synthetic rubber industry will also continue to develop core technology with independent intellectual property rights. JiRunTong said, want to further development in our country, must be developed the core technology. Synthetic rubber association will actively guide enterprises to strengthen the independent innovation in this aspect, implementation technology progress, improve the international competition ability, strive to make our country from the synthetic rubber powers to synthetic rubber power.
 
JiRunTong said, in recent years, synthetic rubber association has environmental protection, safety, long cycle operation and energy saving the hot topic in business and industry organizations such as the seminar for many times, to enterprise's technological progress and industrial development has played a larger role in promoting. This year, the association will continue to promote the energy conservation and emissions reduction work of the industry, actively participated in the revision of the environmental protection laws and regulations, criteria and indicators system, advance the sustainable development of synthetic rubber in China.
 
In addition, the synthetic rubber association will continue to be anti-dumping butylbenzene rubber, neoprene follow-up work, further consolidate the achievements of anti-dumping; To strengthen the analysis and prediction of synthetic rubber in the market, promote the healthy and orderly development of the market.
