Magnet popular new energy products exports surged sevenfold

 New energy vehicles and other new energy products, call getting high, stimulating the domestic demand for rare earth permanent magnet materials

According to Chengdu Customs analysis of the size of the surge in exports, partly because their own well-developed, but also reflects the international market demand increases. Extensive use of rare earth permanent magnet, especially new energy vehicles, energy products and other new appliances frequency voice gradually, corresponding stimulating the demand for rare earth permanent magnet materials.

reporter learned from the Chengdu Customs, with the new energy vehicles, frequency appliances increasingly hot, rare earth permanent magnet is more popular in the international market. Over the past year, Sichuan exported 580.1 tons of rare earth permanent magnet, it compared with 2009 (below) surged 7.1 times the total value of $ 27,430,000, an increase of 7.1 times. At the same time, exports averaged $ 47,000 per tonne, an increase of 1%.

average export price: the year remains high

according to customs statistics, exports of Sichuan, the average price of rare earth permanent magnet running smoothly. Since December 2009 since the average export price has been maintained at $ 46,000 per tonne from top to bottom, in the December 2010 average export price per tonne $ 47,000, an increase of 23.6%. In the export scale, Sichuan, rare earth permanent magnet from December 2009 export a record 62.7 tons of the highest monthly export volume after the scale of exports in 2010 were significantly enlarged compared with 2009. The year 2010 the export volume of above 580 tons, up by as much as 7 times.

It is understood, rare earth permanent magnetic material is samarium, neodymium and other mixed rare earth and transition metal sintering obtained after magnetization of a magnetic material, as the latest generation of permanent magnet, with lightweight, high efficiency, high energy product, corrosion resistance and other characteristics, mainly for new energy vehicles, direct-drive permanent magnet wind generator, inverter and other energy saving appliances.

in the past year, ASEAN, China's Hong Kong, the United States of rare earth permanent magnet Sichuan top three export markets. In particular, ASEAN exports reached 301 tons, an astounding increase of 10.1 times, accounting for 51.9% of total exports. Meanwhile, exports to Hong Kong 151.3 tons, an increase of 4.3 times, accounting for 26.1%; exports to the U.S. 32.2 tons, an increase of 10.6 times. Currently, the private sector for the export of Sichuan, the main force of rare earth permanent magnet, accounted for more than 99% of total exports.
