　　01、 Application of blockchain in textile industry focuses on Integration

As a new generation of information technology with obvious characteristics, blockchain has become the focus of attention in recent years. Especially in October 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed in his collective study at the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee that the integrated application of blockchain technology plays an important role in the new technological innovation and industrial transformation. We should take the blockchain as an important breakthrough in independent innovation of core technology, clarify the main direction of attack, increase investment, and strive to conquer a number of key core technologies, We will accelerate the innovation and development of blockchain technology and industry.

In June 2021, the Ministry of industry and information technology and the central network and information office issued the guiding opinions on accelerating the application of blockchain technology and industrial development, which made deployment in accelerating the application of blockchain technology, and proposed that the blockchain should penetrate into many economic and social fields, and be deeply integrated with the Internet, big data, artificial intelligence and other new generation of information technology, It is widely used in various fields.

Textile industry is one of the advanced manufacturing industries in the world. Over the years, it has been developing in the fields of integration of industrialization and industrialization, intelligent manufacturing, etc., and the application of new generation information technology is deepening. In this process, we should give full play to the prominent role of blockchain in optimizing business processes, reducing operating costs, and building a credible system. We should actively expand application scenarios, promote the application of blockchain in the subdivision industry and key fields of textile industry, promote the upgrading of technical products and the improvement of industrial ecology by large-scale application, and cultivate new models and new formats, Supporting the digital transformation and high-quality development of textile industry has considerable development prospects.

The application of blockchain technology in the textile industry is still in its infancy. In order to successfully realize the integrated development, it is essential to grasp the characteristics of the textile industry and meet the industrial needs of enterprises. On the one hand, we should learn from the experience of other industries such as finance, set priorities, implement step by step, and deeply promote and apply them; It is also necessary to analyze the similarities and differences of industry applications, and implement them in specific application fields, instead of blindly copying some ready-made implementation plans.

　　02 Characteristics of key application fields supply chain management

Supply chain management is the most typical application field of blockchain. There are many cases in other industries. The experience and lessons are worth learning and learning. The data transparency and decentralization of blockchain can realize the whole life cycle management of textile and clothing products, trace the source of products, crack down on fake and shoddy products, and safeguard the rights and interests of consumers. It can not only enhance the transparency of the textile supply chain, but also improve the credibility of products and brand recognition. In addition, the use of blockchain can not be tampered with, multi-party sharing of distributed ledger features, can protect the supply chain enterprise credit, break information asymmetry, reduce trust costs, optimize the allocation of funds, ease the financing difficulties of suppliers and other issues. From the perspective of the whole industry chain, it can promote the development of industry trust economy, open up virtual and real economy, and connect industry and finance.

In the supply chain management system, the data transparent and decentralized blockchain technology enables customers and brand owners to check every production link and ensure the accuracy of information. In recent years, blockchain technology has been used in foreign countries to trace the surface accessories, manufacturers and key information of production and manufacturing of clothing products. From raw materials, spinning and weaving to clothing made by processing plants, every process is registered on the blockchain. Each garment is then given a unique numerical code containing specific data such as location, factory name and time. This information will be presented in the mobile app and can be accessed through QR code or NFC supported tags. This can improve the transparency of the textile production cycle.

In recent years, the textile industry has proposed the use of blockchain and smart contracts to establish the belt and road textile trading credit system; It is proposed to build corresponding credit ecosystem and optimize textile trading channels through blockchain Traceability Technology in industrial clusters and professional markets; The application of blockchain technology in the field of consumer shopping will sink the clothing channel to the terminal, gather brand collection stores in many places, and create a data-based supply chain platform. Many technology developers and solution providers are also involved in related fields, bringing new vitality. The period of large-scale integration of textile industry supply chain blockchain will be relatively long, and it is expected to achieve results in some good application of informatization foundation as soon as possible.

　 Industrial Internet

The construction of industrial Internet is an important content and infrastructure for the realization of digital transformation of textile industry. In recent years, it has created an overall solution closely combined with the characteristics of the industry in key fields, and gradually built and improved the technical support system of industrial Internet. As a new generation of information technology, blockchain has the characteristics of collective maintenance, anti tampering, multi-party consensus and traceability, which helps to solve the problems of traditional industrial data sharing, ownership confirmation, circulation, process traceability and industrial chain coordination.

The industrial Internet public service platform based on blockchain can realize the credible collection of data, controllable and reliable transfer of knowledge achievements, which helps the industrial Internet gain the recognition and trust of the majority of enterprise users, and better play the value of data as the core production factor. Its specific contents include promoting the integration and innovation of blockchain and identity resolution, building the blockchain infrastructure based on identity resolution, improving the technology integration application ability of "platform + blockchain", and creating a new industrial Internet mode and format based on blockchain technology.

For example, the medical and health textile industry internet platform built by Beijing Aerospace Intelligent Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has developed the reliable technology of textile industry supply chain based on blockchain, realized the online trade credit system of industrial products with guaranteed payment mode, and played a role in the rapid organization and production transformation of products in the emergency state. The industrial Internet platform of chemical fiber industry built by Tongkun group applies innovative services and products such as blockchain, and cooperates with upstream and downstream service providers and partners to help enterprises reduce costs and increase benefits.

　　 Intelligent manufacturing

In the "14 key areas" of "smart manufacturing" and "high-quality manufacturing" and "smart manufacturing" have been released as one of the five key areas of "smart manufacturing" and "high-quality manufacturing", A number of pilot demonstration enterprises and projects have been built. The outstanding characteristics of blockchain technology are distributed peer-to-peer, transparent and reliable, which can reduce costs, improve efficiency and enhance credibility, which is the focus of intelligent manufacturing.

The application of blockchain in this area is just in the beginning. Based on the analysis of the demand and status quo of intelligent textile manufacturing, the application of intelligent production line, intelligent logistics system, intelligent management, personalized customization and other aspects is worthy of in-depth discussion.

　　 Intelligent production line It is the core of intelligent manufacturing. The on-line monitoring of production line, optimization of production process and coordination of various production links are scenarios where blockchain technology can play a role.
