The 2025 Guangjie (Hefei) Polyimide Industry Chain Annual Conference was successfully held

From January 6th to 8th, the 2025 Guangjie (Hefei) Polyimide Industry Chain Annual Conference with the theme of "Gathering in Hefei, Creating the Future with Acyl" was successfully concluded in the Hefei New Station High tech Zone. The conference attracted over 500 experts, scholars, business leaders, and industry elites from various links of the polyimide (PI) industry chain, focusing on collaborative innovation across the entire industry chain and exploring in-depth the upgrading path of national strategic emerging industries.

This annual conference comprehensively covers a wide range of application fields in the polyimide industry, including upstream raw materials and equipment, midstream slurry and film manufacturing, downstream consumer electronics, new energy, display semiconductors, etc. It conducted in-depth discussions on cutting-edge technologies, market trends, and collaborative development, aiming to gather industry wisdom and help solve the "bottleneck" problems in key material fields.

The conference focused on inviting leading enterprises in the industry chain such as BOE, Weixinnuo, Dingcai Technology, Qicai, Dinglong Co., Ltd., and Times New Materials to participate. Through high-level dialogue and ideological collision, it further strengthened the influence of Hefei region in the polyimide industry and accelerated the formation of industrial agglomeration effect.

The all-around champion, Liandong Hefei

Polyimide (PI) is known as the "all-around champion of the materials industry" and is the core cornerstone supporting the development of national strategic emerging industries such as new generation information technology, new energy, and high-end equipment. Hefei City regards the new materials industry as a key pillar in building the "6+5+4+X" modern industrial system, while the Xinzhan High tech Zone positions it as an important support for the "2411" modern industrial system. The development of the polyimide industry has a solid foundation and strategic significance.

Hefei has gathered leading enterprises in downstream application fields such as BOE, Weixinnuo, Tongfu Microelectronics, Lianbao Electronics, Guoxuan High tech, BYD, NIO, etc., providing a broad market space for PI materials. At the same time, the local PI backbone enterprise Guofeng New Materials has been deeply rooted for many years, and has jointly built a relatively complete industrial chain support system from "PI raw materials midstream manufacturing downstream application matching" with enterprises such as Qicai. This comprehensive industrial chain supporting capability has achieved precise "chain movement" of PI materials, laying a solid foundation for the industry to break through development bottlenecks.

Core carrier, sword pointing at the 'membrane city'

As the core carrier area of Hefei's new materials industry, Xinzhan High tech Zone has demonstrated strong industrial agglomeration. More than 30 film material related enterprises such as Xinmei Materials, Pioneer Film, Changyang Technology, Lekai Technology, Sanlipu, and Hongdao New Materials have gathered in the area, forming a polyimide characteristic industry cluster covering enterprises such as Guofeng New Materials, Qicai, Dingcai Technology, and Hengkun New Materials, and the industrial ecology is becoming increasingly perfect.

The development momentum of leading enterprises is strong. Hefei LeKai Technology, as a pioneer in optical grade polyester film and functional film materials in China, has 5 polyester film production lines and 15 precision coating production lines. Changyang Technology focuses on the field of new energy, and its project in Xinzhan District is expected to produce 560 million square meters of lithium battery separators annually. Guofeng New Materials is committed to tackling high-end materials such as high-performance electronic grade polyimide films for semiconductors.

Looking ahead to the 15th Five Year Plan, Xinzhan High tech Zone has set ambitious goals. In the future, the region will focus on the three strategic directions of display, semiconductor, and new energy, with a particular emphasis on developing the membrane materials industry in segmented fields. By relying on professional carriers such as high-end manufacturing industrial parks and high-end optical film production bases, we actively attract high-quality enterprises with industry influence and growth potential, and continuously consolidate the foundation of the industrial chain. The Xinzhan High tech Zone is striving towards the goal of building a "world membrane capital" with leading technology, concentrated production capacity, and excellent brand, and constructing a globally influential highland for the membrane material industry.

The successful holding of this annual conference not only provides a high-level exchange and cooperation platform for the national polyimide industry chain, but also demonstrates the strategic layout, cluster advantages, and development determination of Hefei City and Xinzhan High tech Zone in this industry field, injecting strong impetus into the future high-quality development of the industry.
