Intro to Hot Dip and Cold Galvanized Steel Pipe

Galvanized pipe can be classified into two kinds: cold galvanized steel pipe and hot dip galvanized steel pipe. The former has been forbidden, and the latter has been advocated temporarily in China.

1. Hot Dip Galvanized Steel Pipe

Hot dip galvanized steel pipe is to make the molten metal react with iron substrate so as to produce alloy layer so that the substrate can be combine with coating combination. Hot dip galvanized steel pipe is first taken acid pickling in order to remove iron oxide on the surface of the steel tube. After acid pickling, clean up in the tank of ammonium chloride or zinc chloride or ammonium chloride and zinc chloride mixed aqueous solution, and then sent to the hot dip plating tank. Hot dip galvanized has the advantage of uniform coating, strong adhesion, long service life, etc.

Steel substrate react complex physically and chemically with molten electrolyte solution, and then form into zinc-iron alloy layer with the compact structure of corrosion resistance. Pure zinc alloy layer, alloy layer and steel substrate are integrated with each other. So, its corrosion resistant ability is extremely strong.

2. Cold Galvanized Steel Pipe

Cold galvanizing is electricity galvanizing, but the galvanized quantity is very few about only 10 g to 50 g per square meter. Its corrosion resistance ability is weaker than that of galvanized pipe. Regular galvanized steel pipe manufacturers mostly do not use electric galvanized zinc (cold galvanized) in order to guarantee the quality. Only those small enterprises with small scale and old equipment adopt electric galvanized zinc. Of course, the price is relatively cheaper. At present, the Ministry of Construction has officially indicated to weed out cold galvanized pipe which is now lagging in technology and it is not allowed to use cold galvanized pipe as water and gas pipe in the future.

The zinc layer is electrodeposited coating, and zinc layer and steel substrate layered independently. Because the thin zinc layer attached on the steel substrate is simply easy to fall off, the poor corrosion resistance is not strong. In the newly-built residence, it is prohibited to use the cold galvanized steel tube as the feed pipe.

The Growth of World Economic Needs China 's Kinetic Energy

The overall global economy running smoothly at present, but the international financial crisis is far from end, the banking situation has not been well in nature. Hunan Shinestar Steel Research Institute said that as the world's big import and export country, China is an important driving force of world economic growth, world economic growth needs China's kinetic energy.

In the major economies, the banking crisis has not yet ended, the debt problem has not yet been resolved. Frankly speaking, the banking crisis is not a short-time and easy problem. Since 2008, a large number of debt problems became intensify, and the process to slove is extremely slow. People need more time to "digest" the debt problem, which is an important factor to affected the global economic.

In this context, the growth rate of Chinese economy remained at 6%, much higher than the global average of 2% to 3% in recent years. There is no doubt that China is a major contributor to the global economy. For a long time, people used to think the United States, Europe and other economies to replace the development of the global economy, and now the pattern has been broken, China is changing the world. With this situation, Communication is the most effective way to eliminate tension and fear. With the continuous enhancement of its comprehensive national strength, China is gradually approaching the center of the world economic, which creat opportunity for the East-West exchange. Chinese President Xi Jinping presebt at The Davos Forum is a good example. We take this opportunity to strengthen mutual understanding and find ways to work better.

In recent years, China's economic growth has shifted from high-speed growth to medium high-speed growth, and China's active structural reform is more conducive to the long-term and stable development of China's economy, which shows that China's economy is maturing. It is foreseeable that China's mature economy will play a greater role in promoting global economic growth. Shinestar Group as a supplier of angle steel, galvanized angle, channel, hot galvanized channel steel, galvanized I-beam, stainless steel I-beam etc. always concerned about China's economic and global economic development, and strive to achieve theirselves transformation upgrade.

President Xi delivered a keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in 2017, signaling to the world China's willingness to participate in global economic governance. China's current economic position and strength, as well as China and the rest of the world's economic ties, determines China will play an important role in global economic governance. The global economy has long been inseparable from the depth of China's participation and cooperation, China has sufficient capacity and experience to promote global economic governance.

In the future, Shinestar Group will continue to upgrade its technical strength and strive to produce more quality angle steel, galvanized angle steel, channel steel, hot galvanized channel steel, galvanized steel pipe, stainless steel I-beam products to add new vitality for the Chinese Economic and the world Economic development.

China's foreign trade inventory in 2016

Look back over past 2016,though China’s foreign trade growth fell,structure optimization,benefits of quality and so on showed many new changes and bright spot.As a Welding steel pipe, line pipe, straight seam submerged arc welding pipe, galvanized pipe, submerged arc weld spiral welded pipe, scaffolding and other products of steel production services provider,Shinestar group has been paying close attention to the development of foreign trade.Shinestar Steel Research Institute said the development way of China's foreign trade on the import and export trade structure, market distribution and trade subject has different degree of optimization and improvement in 2016 that mainly embodied in these aspects:

First,internal production of power to further strengthen,private enterprises import and export growth of 2.2% in 2016,accounting for 38.1% of China's total foreign trade, up 1.2 percentage points from 2015.Our trade way tend to be more reasonable,the general trade import and export growth of 0.9%,accounting for 55% of the total cost of the foreign trade of our country,up 1 percentage points from 2015.Gradient transfer of processing trade progressed steadily,the import and export of processing trade in the central and western regions increased by 3.2%,accounting for the proportion of total cost of the foreign trade in our country ,up 1.3 percentage points from 2015.The international market diversification has made some progress,some "along the way" along the country's rapid trade growth,to India, Russia, Pakistan, Poland and Bangladesh and other countries import and export growth of 4.1%, 8.7%, 7.2%, 4.1% and 9.2%.

Second,in the superior products in optimal out has made good progress.In terms of exports,China’s traditional advantage products exports growth remained,textiles, plastic products and toys export growth of 1.9%, respectively, 0.5% and 24.9%,still keep a good competitive advantage.At the same time benefit from China's abundant capital, perfect industrial system and strong manufacturing capacity, our country enterprise in the speed up to go out and promote the international cooperation capacity also led equipment manufacturing and export of high value-added products,China's enterprises in accelerating to go out and promote international capacity cooperation also led the equipment manufacturing and high value-added products exports.Some mechanical and electrical products and equipment manufacturing exports also maintained a good momentum, such as medical equipment export growth of 6.1%, auto parts export growth of 3.5%.

Third,in terms of import,China's crude oil, copper and other commodities imports in 2016 continue to maintain the growth momentum, which also shows that China's domestic economy is running smoothly, demand has picked up.At the same time, the policy effect of expanding imports and optimizing import structure shows that some high-tech products such as advanced technology, key parts and important equipment have a rapid growth in import.In 2016, imports of electrical products increased by 1.9%, of which turbojet engine imports increased by 26.8%, ship growth of 26.6%, measurement and analysis of automatic control equipment and apparatus increased by 10.7%.

The future, we need to be more active in the face of complex and volatile international and domestic economic situation and import and export environment, and strive to build an open economy new system, and continuously improve the quality and efficiency of foreign trade development, build a higher level of open economy, the full realization of the "big Into the big out "to" excellent into excellent "change. Shinestar Group will also adhere to independent innovation, pay more attention to cultivate technology, brand, quality, service as the core of the new advantages of foreign trade competition, to produce more high-quality welded steel pipe, pipe, straight seam submerged arc welded pipe, galvanized steel pipe, ERW steel pipe, scaffolding and other products, playing an international competitiveness of the steel group.

Talking About The Risk of Economic Growth in 2017

At present China economy is slow in stabilization, steady for the better.Supply side structural reforms achieved interim results.The positive factors of economic growth  are increasing, but the structural contradictions and risks of economic development still exist.As the SSAW steel pipe,welded carbon steel pipe ,stainless steel pipe,and  other products manufacturers service,Shinestar group has been very concerned about the development of Chinese economy.Today, shinestar Steel Research Institute talk  about the risk of economic growth in 2017.

First, the risk of external shocks.  The global economy is facing increasing conflict, after the international financial crisis, the developed countries in Europe and the  United States have been mired in structural problems, economic reform is sluggish, slow economic recovery, conservatism tends to rise.Global economic growth is  expected to be generally weak, developed economies are still slow growth, emerging markets and the development of the economy will only moderate growth.U.S.  inflation is expected to push up interest rates and the dollar exchange rate,the new president of the United States proposed to reduce income tax, expand the scale of  infrastructure, repatriation of immigrants and other policies tend to push up U.S.Emerging market countries economic recovery is not solid, accompanied by domestic risk  is intensifying,especially continue to rely on credit to drive economic growth eventually leads to increased risk of damaging adjustment.

Second is the real economy from the bottom of the recovery, the economy is still downward pressure.In 2016, the real economy from the bottom of the recovery,Mainly  rely on supply side reform is expected to promote the recovery of PPI from the bottom, the real estate market driven by the growth of real estate investment growth  picked up.At present, the fixed asset investment growth downward pressure, has not yet appeared signs of cyclical rebound in fixed asset investment.Private fixed asset  investment growth continued to fall, real estate development investment growth may slow down.

Third is the real estate market than expected development potential risks.2016 real estate market than expected development of stable economic growth has played a  positive role, but its negative impact in 2017 need to be concerned.The real estate market regulation will have a negative impact on investment and bank profitability  indicators.2016 in October, some cities have adopted a more stringent measures to regulate real estate, real estate investment may also be down accordingly.At the end  of June 2016, commercial banks non-performing loans 1 trillion and 437 billion yuan, more than the same period last year 31%.Although the proportion of non-performing  loans of commercial banks is only 1.75%, but the proportion of non-performing loans and non-performing loans rising trend both need to remain vigilant.

Four is the pressure of capital outflows and devaluation is expected to rise. Since 2016 halfyear, China's foreign exchange reserves continued to decline significantly.  From January to November of 2016, the foreign exchange reserves accumulated decreased by 278.76 billion USD, the foreign exchange reserves of 3.05 trillion USD to the  end of November.After CNY joined the SDR, the CNY against the USD accelerated depreciation, as to December 29, 2016, has exceeded 6.95 CNY/ USD. Next year, IMF  will do more rigorous evaluation to CNY exchange rate control measure, which will make CNY capital control more difficult.

Shinestar Group will face marketing risk and challenges, and will make great efforts to produce more high quality ERW Steel Pipe,galvanized steel pipe ,stainless  steel pipe accelerate enterprise transformation and upgrading, and develop China's economic.

Prime at belonging to Shinestar of iron steel group. As a base, service global production of large steel enterprises in China, Shinestar of domestic and international trade in 2016 double wave red, topped the top 100 enterprises of hunan. Its high quality steel products won a good market both at home and abroad. The future, Shinestar will toward building the "aircraft carrier" domestic steel procurement service as a whole and benchmarking enterprise's target for one hundred, and continuously.

Iron and steel industry prices fell, the reason why?

As we all know, often drop large iron and steel industry, the price is extremely unstable, so what is the cause of this phenomenon?Shinestar Steel Research Institute found through research, technology and the characteristics of the iron and steel industry, the cost structure resulted in the imbalance between supply and demand environment quantity adjustment special difficulties.

Specifically, the characteristics of modern steel production technology determines that the industry has a strong scale effect.This means that the iron and steel enterprises need to spend a huge amount of money to buy equipment and equipment to build production systems, resulting in a higher proportion of fixed capital amortization of depreciation in the total cost.Shinestar Steel Group attaches great importance to R & D investment, its R & D production of carbon steel pipe, welded steel pipe, line pipe, galvanized pipe and other excellent products, the market was highly recognized.

Under normal market conditions, the characteristics of the industry makes the steel enterprises with the average cost per unit of output with the output scale and reduce the advantages, is conducive to enhancing the competitiveness of enterprises by expanding the scale, so the rapid growth in market demand under the environment of enterprises with strong expansion impulse.However, the demand for reverse change and under the conditions of excess capacity, the objective needs of sales compensation huge cost sharing, will lead to reduced production enterprises facing special difficulties,makes an ordinary enterprise may have to accept the price is far below the average cost, the formation of the iron and steel industry seems to be more willing to price competition and regardless of the loss of the phenomenon.

At present, the entire industry is under the background of the capacity to understand the difficulties behind the steel enterprises are more conducive to the promotion of structural adjustment.Huge amortization cost constraints, in addition to the mentioned steel blast furnace if stewing furnace boiler stop need extra pay huge cost, which further increased the steel mills production scale down the economic difficulties.In addition, the government protection measures from the Angle of system distortion may prevent enterprises from the number and scale down.

Requires industry to face the question is: in 2009, 460 million tons of crude steel production in China, in 2015 the actual production capacity of more than 1.25 billion tons of crude steel in our country, production of 804 million tons.By profit nature of the enterprise, industry concentration degree increase, corporate profitability increased, the influx of capital, capacity expansion again, a single merger can not limit production capacity expansion.

Product navigation, production escort,Shinestar Steel Group has been very focused on product development and production, which owns the layout of Changsha, Xiangyin, Nanchang, Tianjin four production bases,combined shinestar steel R & D and production of the powerful platform, R & D and production of carbon steel pipe, welded steel pipe, line pipe, galvanized pipe and other excellent products, praised by customers.The future, Shinestar will continue to increase investment, the introduction of advanced technology and equipment, the more the production of more and better quality products, in order to adapt to the development of the globalization strategy.
