Analysis of the development trend of capacitor industry in 2017

     In recent years, the development of the domestic power capacitor industry has been extremely rapid, and the quality and quantity of products have been greatly improved. A considerable number of advantageous enterprises have begun to win the international market and achieved good performance. With the rapid development of the power industry, With technological advancement and the strengthening of reactive power compensation and energy-saving loss management, power capacitor manufacturing enterprises have encountered unprecedented development opportunities to rapidly expand the market for power capacitors. At the same time, it has also triggered a large demand for power capacitors in many fields. The following is an analysis of the development trend of the capacitor industry in 2017.


     2017-2022 China's chip capacitor industry development prospect analysis and development strategy research report shows that in order to comply with the miniaturization, high speed, digitization (information) of downstream electronic equipment users such as medical electronic equipment, automotive electronics, and consumer electronics products, Intelligent, personalized, integrated development needs
(1) Improve performance: increase in unit volume capacity density, improvement in frequency response characteristics, DC bias voltage characteristics, and loss factor improvement, such as zero voltage characteristics, ultra low loss, etc.
(2) Special use: Ceramic capacitors with special functions, which put forward various functional requirements for products; such as high temperature, high pressure, high frequency and high Q, pulse discharge, ultra stability and so on.
(3) High reliability: Due to the speciality and importance of the military industry, such as aviation, aerospace, weaponry, and other parts of the military, which are closely related to personal safety and social life, some equipments also have the characteristics of “non-maintainability”. The reliability requirements of ceramic capacitors are very high.
(4) Surface Mount (SMT): High-density mounting requirements have placed increasing demands on the size, shape, precision, and terminal electrode and braid form of ceramic capacitors.
(5) Application of base metal materials: The technological development of ceramic capacitors is a microcosm of the rapid development of electronic information products. Nickel, copper and other base metals are used instead of silver/palladium precious metals as internal electrode materials (also known as BME technology). An important milestone in the development of capacitor technology. Although this puts high requirements on the material technology of ceramic capacitors, co-firing technology (using N2 atmosphere protection and sintering), and equipment technology, the base metal process can greatly reduce the cost of raw materials, which can greatly reduce the production cost by 30%~ About 50%, it can also improve the dielectric loss, which is the development trend of ceramic capacitors.
(6) Super high-rise number: The more internal electrode layers of multi-layer ceramic capacitor products, the higher the technical content; the “small size and large capacity” of products by increasing the number of layers of capacitors is the development trend of multilayer ceramic capacitor technology. .
     China's capacitor industry must face the competition of developed countries in the intrinsic advantages of high-end products market and strategic emerging industries. It must face the severe challenges of other developing countries in the labor-intensive product market. The rising labor and talent costs and the rising prices of raw materials and energy will face a very heavy task. Under the guidance of the national medium- and long-term planning, under the guidance of the development of a new generation of information technology, we must accelerate the upgrading of industrial structure, enhance the capacity for independent innovation and comprehensive competitiveness, and realize the transformation of the capacitor industry from large to strong, and become the global capacitor production. Strong country.
