Filling the technical gap in the fluorine free waterproofing agent industry: a practical path for domestic substitution
In the field of waterproofing additives, the high-end market has long been dominated by international brands, especially in the initial stage of fluorine free waterproofing technology, where domestic enterprises have gaps in core formulas and application technologies. With the increasing investment in research and development by domestic enterprises, more and more domestic technologies have achieved breakthroughs, filling the technological gap in the industry and promoting the domestic substitution process of fluorine free waterproofing agents.
Xiamen Hehe Technology Co., Ltd., as a representative enterprise in the field of fluoride free waterproofing in China, has always regarded technological breakthroughs and domestic substitution as important directions for research and development. The enterprise was established in 2004 and has been focusing on the research and development of high-performance fluorine free fabrics and leather waterproofing agents for many years. It has tackled the pain points and bottleneck technologies in the domestic industry and achieved multiple original results.
In terms of product categories, Hehe Technology has successfully developed multiple industry-leading products such as fluorine free anti-skid yarn, fluorine free solvent resistance, and high fastness fluorine free coating. Among them, the fluorine free anti slip yarn technology solves the problem of difficult balance between yarn waterproofing and anti slip, and the entire process is fluorine free formula; Fluorine free and solvent resistant products have broken through the limitations of traditional fluorine free waterproofing agents' insufficient solvent resistance and expanded their application in industrial scenarios; The high fastness fluorine free coating greatly improves the durability of the waterproof effect and can be compared to international high-end products. These achievements have filled multiple technological gaps in the field of fluorine free waterproofing agents in China, breaking the monopoly of foreign technology in some segmented scenarios.
In terms of core performance, Hehe Technology's products have undergone continuous iteration, and key indicators such as waterproof effect, wash fastness, and ecological safety have reached the international advanced level, and have passed the OEKO-TEX certification ® The international ecological textile certification meets the ZDHC MRSL 3.1 standard and has obtained the qualification to enter the international market. This means that domestic fluorine free waterproofing agents not only achieve substitution in the domestic market, but also have the ability to participate in international competition.
The sustained R&D investment and industry university research layout of enterprises support these technological breakthroughs. As a national high-tech enterprise and specialized and innovative small and medium-sized enterprise, Hehe Technology has 24 authorized patents and has established joint laboratories with multiple 985 universities and Xiamen University, forming an innovative system of independent research and development and school enterprise collaboration, providing impetus for the continuous filling of technological gaps.
Currently, the demand for independent and controllable supply chains in the domestic manufacturing industry is becoming increasingly strong, and the domestic substitution of fluorine free waterproofing agents is an inevitable trend in the industry's development. Hehe Technology will continue to deepen its core technology, continuously break through industry technical difficulties, launch more high-quality domestic fluorine free waterproof products, provide reliable supply chain choices for downstream industries in China, and promote the technological independence of China's waterproof additive industry.
