从纵向来看，中国化学工业竞争力不断提升；从国际横向来看，中国化学工业相较于主要发达国家还有一定的差距，但差距在不断缩小。一方面政府出台了一系列政策促进化学工业的发展和竞争力的提高；另一方面也存在一些体制和政策因素阻碍了化学工业创新能力和竞争力的提升。未来的方向是进一步推进改革开放和创新，发展化工新材料，降低碳排放，以提升化学工业竞争力。
From the perspective of time，the competitiveness of China’s chemical industry is increasingly enhanced;compared with other international countries，there is still a certain gap between the chemical industry of our country and major developed countries，but the gap is shrinking. On one hand，government has some policies to promote the chemical industrial development and competitiveness，on the other hand，some system and policies impede innovation capability and competitiveness of the chemical industry. The future direction is further to reform and open up and innovation，the development of new chemical materials，reducing carbon emissions，to enhance the competitiveness of the chemical industry.
