Fluorination is one of the new chemical materials industries, known as the gold industry. Fluorine chemical products, with their excellent properties such as chemical resistance, high and low temperature resistance, aging resistance, low friction, insulation, etc., are widely used in military, chemical, mechanical and other fields, and have become a strategic emerging industry with rapid development and great potential in the chemical industry. The "12th Five Year Plan for the Development of China's Fluorine Chemical Industry" proposes that by 2015, the total production capacity of various fluorine chemical products in China will reach 4.5 million tons, with the proportion of mid to high-end products increasing to 20%, and the total output value of the fluorine chemical industry reaching 150 billion yuan.

In the process of rapid development, China's fluorine chemical industry has also exposed some problems. At present, there are over a thousand fluorine chemical enterprises in China, and a complete fluorine chemical industry chain has been basically formed, including fluoroalkanes, fluoropolymers, inorganic fluorides, fluorine containing fine chemicals, fluorine material processing, etc. The production capacity and output of fluorine chemical products such as fluorite, hydrofluoric acid, aluminum fluoride, polytetrafluoroethylene, HCFC, HFC, fluorine rubber are also among the top in the world. However, due to reasons such as outdated technology and insufficient product innovation capabilities, there is a serious phenomenon of low-level repetitive construction in the industry, resulting in disorderly expansion of production capacity, leading to rapid consumption of resources such as fluorite, which seriously affects the sustainable development of the industry. Fluorine chemical enterprises are mostly concentrated in the upstream of the industrial chain, with a large amount of basic fluorine chemical products, and prominent contradictions between the industrial structure and product structure.

Based on this, in order to achieve the development goals of the 12th Five Year Plan, the fluorine chemical industry must focus on the theme of transformation, optimization, and innovation, focus on structural adjustment, promote industrial transformation and upgrading, and develop towards refinement, lightweight, composite, energy-saving, environmental protection, and circular economy.

So, how to promote industrial structure adjustment and transformation and upgrading? The author suggests that firstly, we should actively play the coordinating role of industry associations, accelerate the formulation of detailed rules for the development of the fluorine chemical industry, and quickly form a policy system and management system that is in line with China's national conditions and the characteristics of the fluorine chemical industry, in order to better solve the current industrial policies and environmental protection problems

Restrictive factors such as regulations and international trade; The second is to accelerate the elimination of outdated products and processes with poor product quality and causing environmental pollution, focus on improving scientific and technological innovation capabilities and cultivating high-quality talent teams, introduce more preferential policies, encourage and promote the fluorine chemical industry to shift towards refined, differentiated, distinctive, and high-end development, and enhance the core competitiveness of the industry; The third is to scientifically position, reasonably layout the construction of the park, increase the protection and intensive mining of fluorite resources, strengthen economic and technological exchanges and cooperation, and create a development environment that complements each other's advantages, is reasonable and orderly, and coexists and thrives together; Fourthly, aiming at the forefront of world technology, we will vigorously develop new environmentally friendly refrigerants, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, and perfluoroethylene propylene, and other fluorinated fine chemicals, extend the industrial chain, and enrich our product series.

Fuxin City, Liaoning Province is the cradle of China's fluorine chemical industry development, with a 40 year history of development. The "Development Plan for the Fluorine Chemical Industry in Fuxin City" is based on the three major advantages of local region, resources, and technology, clarifying the focus on developing mainstream fluorine chemical products such as fluoroalkanes and fluoropolymers, supporting the development of basic chemical products, and enhancing the overall development of fluorine containing fine chemicals. At present, the supporting facilities of the Liaoning Fuxin Fluorine Chemical Industry Base, which covers an area of 20 square kilometers, are gradually becoming complete. A group of well-known domestic and foreign enterprises have successively settled in, a batch of refined, differentiated, and high-end fluorine chemical products are being formed, and a batch of new environmentally friendly refrigerants, aluminum chloride, and other fine fluorine containing products are entering the market.

Since the beginning of this year, the overall growth rate of the domestic fluorine chemical industry has declined, while the fluorine chemical industry in Fuxin has bucked the trend. As of now, the growth rate of the main economic indicators of the fluorine chemical industry has reached over 100%, and the road for Fuxin to build China's hundred billion yuan fluorine capital is spreading at its feet. The development path of Fuxin's fluorine chemical industry may not necessarily be a common model in the industry, but there is still some inspiration and reference significance
