LED lighting applications with a sapphire substrate proportion accounted for more than 90% of the sapphire substrate . From the current application sapphire structure, present in about 80% of the sapphire substrate , about 20% in a non- substrate material, wherein a sapphire substrate is mainly used for the LED lighting and related products SOS , wherein the proportion of the substrate material with LED more than 90 %, so the demand for LED sapphire substrate affect most directly , but also the most important.LED demand has picked up , driving up demand for sapphire . 2012 downturn due to the large economic environment , resulting in demand for LED lighting as expected , resulting in the upstream MOCVD equipment utilization dropped significantly in 2012 , according to statistics related to global MOCVD equipment utilization rate is only 59% , only 42% of the Chinese mainland , sapphire substrate resulting in significantly lower than expected growth in demand . The same time as the release of the sapphire succession of new capacity , supply and demand continues to worsen, the proportion is only 66% of demand supply , sapphire prices had fallen ; 2013 with the direct type LED backlight penetration acceleration, coupled with significantly improved LED lighting needs , stimulate MOCVD equipment utilization increased to 74% ( 63% in China ) , driven by demand recovery in the sapphire substrate , the proportion of demand supply gradually improved demand from the 2012 5,713 million / year demand , raised to 8,300 million / year demand ( equivalent to 2 inches calculation ) , the demand supply ratio of 80% , as prices rise sapphire main driving reasons.In 2014 LED demand continues to increase, sapphire demand is expected to continue to rise . Outlook 2014 , LED lighting products continued price cuts, prices of some products have been fairly and energy-saving lamps , LED lighting to stimulate demand accelerated upward ; same policy, the 2014 global ban incandescent phase into the new standard the European Union, Japan and other regions have been and 2013 H1 implemented in other regions is expected around the end of the relevant standards expected to be introduced , will further promote the penetration of LED lighting needs , recovery is expected to continue to drive demand for sapphire substrate material . We expect that in 2014 the proportion of sapphire demand will further increase supply to 91 percent , is expected to significantly improve the supply and demand relationship .Iphone mobile application or open a new application of the road sapphire. If the 2014 Apple Protection of New Varieties of sapphire screen , assuming 2014-2015 sales of 40 million , 120 million , corresponding to the new demand will drive sapphire 9,714 million / year , 29,142 million / year ( equivalent to 2 inches calculation ) , 2014 in almost equal to the number of integrated LED sapphire substrate , LED 2 -fold by 2015, will use the sapphire substrate demand, this calculation sapphire market size is expected to grow more than 5 times . |
