Li Guimei, the president of the China Industrial Textiles Association, first delivered the project's opening report on behalf of the overall group. She first reported the basis for the project's initiation. She pointed out that emergency security products are an important guarantee for improving people's health and meeting major national demands. Currently, the development of the emergency security fiber products industry in China has the shortcomings and problems of being large but not strong, comprehensive but not excellent. It is urgent to achieve high-quality and leapfrog development to provide strategic support for enhancing the public safety level of the entire population. Subsequently, she, on behalf of the overall group, elaborately introduced the research objectives, research contents, expected outcomes, research plans, team composition, budget and framework division of labor of the project. Li Guimei stated that the project team will, based on the current development status of the emergency security fiber products industry, the list of key technologies that are bottlenecks, and the standardization system, formulate a list of breakthroughs and implementation paths to promote domestic emergency security fiber products and their industry, providing strong support for decision-making by the state and relevant departments.

Si Yang, a researcher from the Textile Science and Technology Innovation Center of Donghua University, delivered the opening report on behalf of the Natural Disaster Group. He explored the current industrial development status of emergency security fiber products in the field of natural disasters, key "bottleneck" technologies, and factors restricting high-quality development. Starting from four aspects: fiber materials, forming technology, functional integration, and equipment intelligence, he examined products for natural disasters such as fire suits, water rescue suits, cold-proof suits, anti-fall safety ropes, and tents Put forward suggestions on key development routes and strategic development goals.

Professor Sun Runjun from the School of Textile Science and Engineering of Xi 'an Polytechnic University delivered the opening report on behalf of the Accident and Disaster team. Centering on the types of accidents and disasters, he pointed out the current development bottlenecks of the emergency security fiber products industry in this field and put forward key special projects and policy suggestions. The research focuses on products such as arc protective clothing, melt splash protective clothing, explosion-proof clothing, and high-altitude operation protective clothing, clarifying their current status in terms of materials, equipment, processes, and domestic and international development trends, and proposing collaborative research and optimization plans to enhance the core competitiveness of the industry.

Professor Liu Xin from the School of Materials Science and Engineering of Wuhan Textile University delivered the opening report on behalf of the Public Emergency Group. Facing the current situation of insufficient innovation in medical protective products and reliance on imported core materials, as well as the demand for lightweight and multi-functional military and police products, he pointed out that the focus will be on analyzing the domestic and international development and industrial chain of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and aramid products. Focus on the fiber raw materials, spinning and weaving, and independent development capabilities of products such as chemical protective textiles, bulletproof suits, cut and puncture resistant suits, and low-equivalent ionizing radiation protective textiles, strive to address the gap between China and foreign countries, and explore the implementation path for high-quality development in this field.

During the expert discussion and exchange session, Academician Jiang Shicheng, Academician Xu Weilin, Academician Sun Jinliang, Academician Sun Yize, Academician Wang Yuzhong, Li Lingshen, Vice president of the China National Textile and Apparel Council, as well as representatives from various universities, research institutes and enterprises respectively put forward opinions and suggestions on the research ideas, methods, key contents and goals of the project. Offer suggestions and strategies for the development of the fiber products industry for emergency security.

Sun Ruizhe, the president of the China National Textile and Apparel Council, emphasized that the emergency security fiber products project is related to the lives and safety of the people and social stability, and reflects the new dimension of high-quality development of the textile industry that is technological, fashionable, green and healthy. At the crucial juncture of planning the 15th Five-Year Plan, conducting such research on a subject holds special significance. We should closely integrate the national strategy and relevant policy arrangements to advance the research work of the subject. To this end, he put forward three suggestions: First, establish a new policy logic, which should not only promote academic and technological innovation but also optimize the policy orientation of procurement, and sort out and improve the system around key categories. Second, a new development logic should be established, and scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation should be deeply integrated. At the same time, optimize the industrial and spatial layout and cultivate future industries; Third, establish a new value logic, promote the high unity of economic benefits, social benefits and ecological benefits, deepen social responsibility, focus on the overall value of the industrial chain, and serve a broader market from military supplies to civilian use, from emergency security to daily consumption.

Wang Xiaowen, director of the Office of the Department of Environmental and Light Textile Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said that emergency security fiber products are related to people's lives and health as well as national security, and conducting strategic research in this field is of great significance. She highly affirmed the extensive pre-research work carried out by the entire project team led by Academician Yu Jianyong in the early stage. Express gratitude for the opinions and suggestions put forward by the academicians and experts attending the meeting. We express our gratitude to the China National Textile and Apparel Council for its long-term support of the consulting work of the Engineering Academy. Finally, she proposed that the project should further focus on key points and clarify goals. Through a year of strategic research, it should provide technological support and decision-making basis for the development of the fiber industry for emergency security.

At the end of the meeting, Academician Yu Jianyong made a concluding speech on behalf of the project team. He stated that the development of fiber products for emergency security is an important part of the high value-added development of the industry. The work of the project team should be combined with the medium and long-term planning of the textile industry, fully integrated into the development strategy of a manufacturing power, and further understand the significant meaning and industrial value of the project. The project team should absorb and sort out the valuable opinions and suggestions of the experts, implement them in the specific implementation process of the project, further break down the tasks, clarify the goals, and ensure that the research results effectively promote the development of the industry. At the same time, enhance coordination with relevant departments to ensure that research results can be applied in practice and promote industrial upgrading.
