https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/5febbfad-e71f-40e8-8b83-daea476c3b08 China has achieved large-scale production of polyolefin elastomer (POE) at Dushanzi Petrochemical in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, reducing reliance on imports of key materials for industries such as photovoltaics. Dubbed "industrial gold," POE combines the processability of plastic with the elasticity of rubber, enhances solar module efficiency and extends panel lifespan to over 30 years. The self-developed gas-phase polymerization process saves 40 percent of energy compared to international methods, which is equivalent to the annual electricity use of 120,000 households. By 2026, China's POE capacity is expected to exceed 300,000 tonnes, securing the supply chain for emerging industries like new energy. #coolchina Subscribe to us on YouTube: https://goo.gl/lP12gA Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://news.cgtn.com/news/2026-02-01/China-s-homegrown-industrial-gold-POE-achieves-mass-production-and-market-availability-1KpBy8YmBGM/p.html Thu, 09 Apr 2026 03:32:13 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://tankie.tube https://tankie.tube/lazy-static/avatars/3ba3ff73-a8b6-49c9-add8-9653ef090c7f.webp https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/5febbfad-e71f-40e8-8b83-daea476c3b08 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://tankie.tube/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
