The Price Rise Of Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor And Solid State Capacitance 8-10%

The largest aluminum electrolytic capacitor factory in mainland recently announced the price of 8%. It is expected to follow the price of 8%. It is expected to follow the third wave of the passive component after the ceramic capacitor (MLCC) and the chip resistor.

Due to the difficulty of the aluminum foil shortage structure of the important upstream materials, it is widely estimated that the shortage of aluminum electrolytic capacitors may be more severe than the ceramic capacitor (MLCC) this year, with the increase of last year's increase, which may be more obvious this year.

Aluminum industry has been a high power consumption, high pollution industry, coupled with the past common environmental assessment of the phenomenon, so Xinjiang area in the last year to clean up illegal factories, linked to the supply of aluminum foil, this is a wave of aluminum foil shortage, rising price of the prime culprit.

After a sudden drop in aluminum foil supply, many manufacturers turned production bases to Japan and the United States, but the cost of production remained high, resulting in high prices for aluminum foil last year, and again 8% to 10% in April this year, with a cumulative rise of more than 30%.

Because aluminum and aluminum foil are the important raw materials for aluminum electrolytic capacitors, aluminum material accounts for about 50% of aluminum foil cost, aluminum foil and aluminum electrolytic capacitor cost two to 30%. For aluminum electrolytic capacitor plants, the cost pressure index burst meter.

Since last year, MLCC, aluminum electrolytic capacitors, solid capacitors, tantalum capacitors and many other products began to run out of stock, and then raged. From the rise of the trend, last year, the biggest increase in the first product of the first push MLCC, aluminum electrolytic capacitor, solid capacitor only daily factory micro surge 3%-5% range, not if MLCC ferocious.

This wave of aluminum electrolytic capacitor rose because of the Rubicon's earliest claims bank to improve the profit structure. Last year, the third quarter dropped out of the non profitable field, and raised the price of 10%, Nippom Chemi-Con and Nichicon in the fourth quarter.

In addition to the aluminum electrolytic capacitor, the other product of the passive component of the solid state capacitance is also due to high cost, and the market supply is tense. Taiwan Yubang, Jinshan electric, Li Long and Zhi Bao have been winning the price up to the client. The increase is less than 10%.

As the daily aluminum electrolytic capacitor and the solid capacitor supplier Rubycon announced the withdrawal of the chip type solid-state capacitor market in the second half of last year, the order turned to the Yubang and Jinshan electric power plant. In the fourth season, the demand for the digital money heat driven server turned hot, and the solid capacitor gap was widened.
