The 3rd International New Materials Industry Conference held in Bengbu, Anhui 
Province attracted many participants, where various cutting-edge new materials 
were unveiled, and new scenes, market segments and trends of the new materials 
industry were displayed, according to the Publicity Department of the CPC 
Bengbu Municipal Committee.

Among others, bio-based materials made from corn and straw by BBCA Group are 
quite noteworthy. These materials mark technical breakthroughs in the core 
process of polylactic acid preparation and full-chain use of straw covering 
sugar, polylactic acid, and related products. Being environmentally friendly, 
they have an advantage in clothing, tableware, wall panels etc.

Another eye-catching material is nano ceramic aluminum alloy developed by the 
Anhui (Huaibei) Ceramic-Aluminum New Materials Research Institute of Shanghai 
Jiaotong University. Nano ceramic aluminum alloy features high strength, high 
toughness and fatigue resistance, which make it suitable for national defense, 
aerospace, lightweight automotive structures and more.

Supported by rapid advancements and innovations, the new materials industry 
will lead global technological and industrial transformations. As the demand 
for sustainable development continues to grow, the demand for new materials 
will continue to increase. Products, technologies and models based on or 
related to new materials will be constantly updated. These innovations will 
provide huge impetus for green development.
