with the transfer of international manufacturing to china in the next 5-10 years, chinese demand for rare earth permanent magnetic materials is expected to grow at an annual rate of increase of 20%, rare earth permanent magnetic materials have become the market prospects, the application sunrise industry with enormous potential, this is the latest of science and technology bureau of shenzhen municipal people's government organized the "2003 international rare earth permanent magnet material industry development forum" on the unanimous view of experts.
rare earth permanent magnet materials as a high-performance functional materials have been widely used in energy, transportation, machinery, medical, it, home appliances and other areas, has become the basis for a number of high-tech industries. the ndfeb rare earth permanent magnetic material due to excellent magnetic properties with comprehensive, relatively low prices, etc., to become the fastest-growing industrialization of the highest degree of industry. 2002 global demand for ndfeb has reach 2 million tons, china sintered ndfeb production accounted for 40% of world production, the annual average growth rate of 43%, bonded nd-fe-18% of the world's total output .
national nanotechnology coordination steering committee chow was at the meeting, our country is the largest producer of rare earth resources, but at present generally used in terms of the production process is still labor-intensive industries, the domestic adequate and cheap labor can help reduce costs, to improve the international competitiveness of products.
the experts pointed out that the rare earth permanent magnet materials, industrial construction, we must follow the rules of market economy, relying on the existing foundation, and actively improve the process, strict management system, an effective cost control, the use of information technology promote the development of product structure optimization and upgrading. industry to develop, you have to rely on survival of the fittest of the market mechanism and macro-control, forming a moderate within the industry concentration, full competition among enterprises, large enterprises led by the pattern of coordinated development of medium and small enterprises. the listing, merger, combination, reorganization and other forms, forming a pool of well-known brands and independent intellectual property rights, the main industry, highlighting the core ability of large companies and enterprise groups to raise industrial concentration and product development capability.
forum "over the last few years, the development of rare-earth permanent magnetic material status and trends" as the theme from the field magnetics at home and abroad well-known experts in the pearl river delta region's main magnetic materials research institutions and magnetics users to participate in the forum.
