Thermoplastic Polymer Structure Design and Functional Material Development Platform
■ Technology Overview
• Through polymer structure design and formulation development, innovative polymer application technologies are developed, and additives can be used to optimize material properties
• Reducing CO2 emissions and carbon credit are important trends in the petrochemical industry. Our lab use chemical depolymerization recycling technology to endow recycled materials with high-value applications
▣ Soluble Liquid Crystalline Polymers (SLCP) and Their Low Df Formulations
Establishing an LCP polycondensation platform, together with low Df formulation and dispersion technologies:
1. To improve the orientation problem of LCP material film formation
2. Additives can be used to control the processability of coating and film formation and the dielectric properties of materials
3. Commercial monomer utilization
4. Mass production capability
Halogen-Free Polyphenylene Sulfide Resin (PPS)
▣ Building an electrophilic polycondensation platform with monomer design:
• Halogen-free PPS polymerization technology
– Through monomer structure design, the obtained PPS product has the characteristics of undetected halogen content and higher molecular weight.
• Soluble PPS material design & development
– Polymerization reaction path design, PPS can be dissolved in NMP, DMSO, and other organic solvents.
