Industrial Textile Materials in China: Development Status, Demand and Countermeasure

Abstract

Industrial textile materials are a new type of basic functional or structural material produced by weaving, knitting, or non-weaving of fibrous materials. They have been widely applied in the fields of aerospace, national defense, ocean engineering, energy, environmental protection, transportation, and civil construction. The rapid development of industrial textile materials can significantly promote China's manufacturing industry, transform and upgrade China's textile industry into an emerging resource industry, and contribute to the dual international and domestic circulation of China's textile industry. In this study, we analyzed the development status, application scenarios, industrial demand, and manufacturing technologies of industrial textile materials, clarified the development direction and focus of relevant technologies and equipment, and proposed countermeasures. China must formulate specific policies to coordinate technological research, equipment development, production, and application of the industry, establish a standards system for industrial textile equipment, and develop strategies for innovative services and talent training.
