Thread Content

The 8,800-ton per year production project of fluorine-containing high-performance materials by Jinhua Yonghe has been approved. Recently, the Jinhua Municipal Ecology and Environment Bureau approved the environmental impact assessment documents for this renovation project carried out by Jinhua Yonghe Fluorine Chemical Co., Ltd., which aims to produce 8,800 tons per year of fluorine-containing high-performance materials (FEP, PTFE, PFA), and announced the relevant details of the project as follows: Project name: Renovation project for producing 8,800 tons per year of fluorine-containing high-performance materials (FEP, PTFE, PFA) by Jinhua Yonghe Fluorine Chemical Co., Ltd； Construction unit: Jinhua Yonghe Fluorine Chemical Co., Ltd ； Construction location: No. 896, Qinglian Road, Jinxī Area, Jinhua Economic and Technological Development Zone, Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province – the existing factory site of Jinhua Yonghe Fluorine Chemical Co., Ltd ； Investment amount: 100 million yuan ； Project nature: Technical renovation ； Construction details: Relying on independently developed technologies and processes, making full use of existing workshops and some production equipment, without introducing any new hazardous chemical processes or major sources of risk, technical upgrades and renovations will be carried out. The existing TFE production facilities and PTFE emulsion production facilities are upgraded and optimized; the single-screw extrusion line in the FEP production facilities is phased out, while new equipment such as polymerization reactors and twin-screw extruders are added to establish production lines for fluorinated high-performance materials (FEP, PTFE, PFA). Upon completion of the technical upgrade project, an annual production capacity of 8,800 tons of fluorine-containing high-performance materials will be available. Of this amount, 6,900 tons per year will be FEP (an increase of 2,700 tons per year compared to before the upgrade), 600 tons per year will be PTFE emulsion, and 1,300 tons per year will be PFA – this represents the new production capacity resulting from the upgrade. At the same time, the entire plant is capable of producing, as by-products, 120 tons of hexafluoropropylene per year, 69,720 tons of 31% hydrochloric acid, 54,911 tons of calcium chloride solution, 1,300 tons of 40% hydrofluoric acid, and 2,748 tons of 30% hydrofluoric acid.
