Key investment points:
Core logic
The field of new chemical materials is an important direction for the future development of the chemical industry. With the slowdown of downstream demand growth in the traditional chemical industry, it is a general trend to concentrate the market share to the leader, and the core competition threshold is cost and efficiency; The downstream is still in the fast-growing field of new materials. The core competitive barriers are R & D capability, industrial chain verification threshold, service capability, etc. with policy support, China’s chemical new materials industry is expected to usher in an accelerated growth period. We recommend high-quality targets of new chemical materials with strong R & D capability and excellent management in the core supply chain, mainly including electronic chemicals (semiconductor materials, display materials, 5g materials, etc.), new energy materials, pharmaceutical intermediates and other fields. Give the industry a “recommended” rating.
