    In the past few years, the global chemical industry has carried out a series of mergers and acquisitions.
    At present, although the concentration of some sub-sectors, especially the industrial gas and agrochemical industries, is close to a high point, there are still opportunities for continued integration in some sub-sectors.
    Relevant industry executives have recently stated that they are still facing pressure from business development and business portfolio optimization this year.
    Most observers believe that the near-term integration will be a hot spot in the coatings industry.
