One booth connects the whole industry; one round of communication seeks common development.

This participation also allowed Xinxing to intuitively grasp new technologies, new applications and market changes in the field of advanced inorganic fibers and composite materials, providing useful references for the enterprise to further improve product and service capabilities.

This annual conference set up a main venue and multiple special sub-venues to conduct in-depth exchanges on technological innovation and application development of the advanced inorganic fiber industry. The main venue invited numerous industry experts to share development opportunities of the advanced inorganic fiber and composite material industry from multiple dimensions including material innovation, process upgrading, market trends and application implementation.

Three parallel sessions were held simultaneously: “Special Session on New Processes, New Materials and New Applications of Advanced Inorganic Fibers”, “Special Session on Electronic Information Application Technology” and “Special Session on Transportation Field Application Technology”, covering technological innovation, application breakthroughs and future development directions of different segmented sectors of the industry.

The Special Session on New Processes, New Materials and New Applications of Advanced Inorganic Fibers covered basic process and equipment innovations such as raw material optimization, sizing agent interface modification, bushing and kiln high-temperature resistant components, extended to application scenarios including large-scale wind turbine blades and high-end glass kilns, and also focused on intelligent changes brought by AI technology to glass kiln design as well as the green and low-carbon development trend.

The Special Session on Electronic Information Application Technology focused on material demand changes driven by the development of AI computing power, with exchanges centered on PCB supply chain, electronic-grade glass fiber raw materials, weaving processes, twisting equipment and downstream applications. The Special Session on Transportation Field Application Technology discussed the application value and industrial development prospects of high-performance fiber composite materials in new energy vehicles, low-altitude rotor aircraft, electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft structures, aerospace equipment, rail transit, aero-engines and other fields.
