A few days ago, SZXW Nano Technology Co., Ltd., which focuses on the research and development, production and diversified applications of advanced carbon nano materials, completed a round of financing of nearly 200 million yuan.
"New materials are the key to the future. I believe that the distance between us and the future is only one line apart. This line is our high-performance carbon nanotube fiber." SZXW Technology CTO Zhang Shenghua said.
The person in charge of the investment institution in this round of financing said that the new material industry has the characteristics of highly technology-intensive and high-value-added products. At the same time, due to the long R&D cycle and high R&D investment, new materials companies need a lot of long-term financial support to develop and grow. "SZXW is the world's leading manufacturer of carbon nanotube fiber materials. It has mastered the core technology for preparing key basic materials and has formed a high technical barrier. Through continuous technical accumulation, the company has found an excellent quality and cost. We have deeply explored the application scenarios in many fields and put them into practice. We are very optimistic that Enwan Technology can develop rapidly in this field and continue to occupy an advantageous position."
The high-performance carbon nanotube fiber independently developed by SZXW has outstanding mechanical properties and is hailed by the industry as the "next-generation new high-performance fiber material", breaking the technological monopoly of Japan and the United States on China's high-performance fiber materials, and is expected to fundamentally change the domestic market. Subject to the status quo of people on key materials.
As a basic material with excellent mechanical, electrical, thermal, optical and other properties, carbon nanotubes have a very wide range of applications and are called the ultimate material by academia. Through independent innovation, SZXW has developed a number of original technologies such as nanocrystalline catalyst, morphology in-situ control, photon modification method, and unique fully automatic integrated high-temperature furnace design, and has mastered the growth, preparation and mass production of array carbon nanomaterials. core technology. The performance of the three series of super carbon nanotubes, carbon nanotube films, carbon nanotube fibers and their composite materials have reached the leading level in the industry.
At present, SZXW has obtained and applied for more than 100 core invention patents at home and abroad. It has cooperated with well-known research institutes and industrial giants at home and abroad in aerospace, satellite optical coatings, automobiles, high-speed rail and other high-end equipment, such as lightweight, high-strength pressure storage vessels (such as Hydrogen storage tanks), wind power generation blades, advanced electronic packaging/shielding/heat dissipation materials, new energy lithium battery positive/negative conductive materials, enhanced and functional modified materials (plastic/rubber/metal/ceramics) and other fields for comprehensive cooperation .
Part of this financing will be used to upgrade SZXW's nanomaterials research and development and production base. The project is expected to be completed in 2021. After it is put into production, the mass production scale of carbon nanotube fibers will be greatly increased. At the same time, SZXW will continue to invest in product innovation and development, scientific research system construction and leading talent training to help companies consolidate and expand the current leading advantages in this field.
Zhang Shenghua said that SZXW has a very high positioning for itself, “As the world’s first company to realize the industrialization of carbon nanotube fibers, we are also a pioneer in the market. We must actively explore and think about market needs and guide this advanced material in The application in more fields has driven the entire industrial chain to realize a virtuous circle. Finally, SZXW will become a platform-level enterprise in the field of carbon nanomaterials, and become a "harbour" for high-end carbon nanomaterial applications."
Founded in 2016, SZXW is a high-tech enterprise founded by a team of overseas Chinese scientists from the United States, Japan and other places as the core. It is committed to the development and industrial application of advanced carbon nanomaterials, and is the first to realize the industrialization of carbon nanotube fibers in the world Breakthrough, known as a unicorn enterprise in the field of new materials.
