Analysis of Innovation Trends in Inorganic New Materials Technology
2025-06-26
The 2025 New Materials Outlook Report of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology shows that the inorganic new materials industry presents a diversified expansion pattern. The new inorganic material projects supported by the National Key R&D Program, such as vanadium pentoxide, talc, silicon carbide, and transparent ceramics, have completed pilot testing and some have entered the mass production stage.
As a core industry link of inorganic new materials, the production of structural ceramics in Chinas alumina ceramics continues to grow. According to monitoring data from the China Ceramic Industry Association in March 2025, the annual production capacity of high-purity alumina ceramic grinding media in China has exceeded 280000 tons. The application proportion of silicon nitride bearing balls in mechanical equipment manufacturing has increased. According to the testing data of Guoce Group in April 2025, the comprehensive bending strength has been improved to 1485MPa, far exceeding the GB standard line. At the same time, silicon carbide ceramics are widely used in the fields of photovoltaics and new energy due to their high thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance. According to the statistics of the China Photovoltaic Industry Association in the first quarter of 2025, the annual growth rate of sales of new materials and equipment related to silicon carbide exceeded 35%.
Innovative achievements in the field of low dimensional inorganic materials continue to emerge. The National Center for Nanoscience and Technologys May 2025 technology update clearly states that single-layer molybdenum disulfide materials can be prepared on a six inch scale, with a stable defect density below 0.32 defects per micrometer square. Graphene modified cement building materials products, tested by the National Building Materials Testing Center in March 2025, showed a 38% increase in compressive strength compared to unmodified products.
Innovative applications of functional glass continue to enrich. In the 2025 evaluation of China National Building Materials Inspection and Certification Group, the Vickers hardness test value of microcrystalline glass mobile phone backboards reached 858HV, and the borosilicate glass material used in nuclear power passed the radiation stability limit test with an irradiation dose of 10 million Gy, meeting the high safety level requirements of power facilities.
The improvement of the standard system in segmented fields also provides a basis for industrial applications. For example, GB T33801 2025 requires solid electrolyte materials with an ion conductivity greater than one milliSiemens per centimeter to meet the performance requirements of the new generation of power batteries. Bioceramics for artificial bone must comply with YYT09972025 standard, with porosity accurately controlled within the specified range, further meeting the precision requirements for medical implantation.
