The prices of fluorosilicone rubber raw materials have fluctuated. The industry is accelerating cost control and supply chain optimization. 

1. Divergent price trends and multiple factors influencing market fluctuations
Since 2025, the price of fluorosilicone rubber raw materials has shown a fluctuating pattern of "initially high and then stable". The core influencing factors include fluctuations in international crude oil prices, changes in the supply pattern of raw materials, environmental policy constraints, and exchange rate fluctuations. As the main raw material for fluorosilicone rubber, hexafluoropropylene (HFP) and vinylidene fluoride (VDF), affected by the high and volatile crude oil prices in the first half of the year, saw a year-on-year increase of 5% - 8%. In the second half of the year, as new production capacity was released, the prices gradually stabilized, presenting a differentiated fluctuation characteristic.

2. Limited raw material supply and industry facing cost pressure
The supply stability of fluorosilicone rubber raw materials faces multiple challenges. On one hand, factors such as international geopolitics and production capacity layout affect global raw material supply, and some core raw materials have a high degree of dependence on imports, with supply fluctuations directly transmitted to the downstream. On the other hand, the tightening of environmental policies has led some small and medium-sized raw material production enterprises to reduce production or withdraw, further exacerbating the shortage of raw materials, causing fluorosilicone rubber production enterprises to face certain cost pressure and squeezing their profit margins. 

3. Enterprises Take Actions and Implement Multiple Measures to Strengthen Cost Control
In the face of fluctuations in raw material prices and cost pressures, enterprises in the fluorosilicone rubber industry have actively adopted various measures to enhance cost control. By optimizing production processes and improving raw material utilization rates, they have reduced the consumption of raw materials per unit product. At the same time, they have strengthened supply chain management, expanded diversified raw material procurement channels, established long-term cooperation mechanisms with raw material enterprises, and locked in the purchase prices of core raw materials to mitigate the impact of price fluctuations and enhance the enterprise's ability to resist risks. 

4. Supply Chain Optimization Promotes Sustainable Development of Industries
To address the challenges in raw material supply, the fluorosilicone rubber industry is accelerating the optimization and upgrading of its supply chain. On one hand, domestic enterprises are increasing their research and development investment in core raw materials, raising the self-sufficiency rate of core raw materials such as hexafluoropropane and fluorosilanes, and reducing reliance on imports. On the other hand, the industry is accelerating the establishment of an integrated supply chain system from "raw materials - production - application", promoting the coordinated development of all links in the industrial chain, enhancing the stability and resilience of the supply chain, and laying a solid foundation for the sustainable development of the industry.
