Sanmei New Materials collaborates with top universities to build a platform for industry-university-research cooperation, where schools and enterprises join hands and innovation thrives together

On November 10, 2021, Fujian Sanmei New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. held a strategic cooperation signing ceremony with many top domestic universities and research institutions, officially establishing a long-term and stable industry-university-research cooperation relationship. This cooperation marks the full formation of Sanmei's "independent research and development + university-enterprise collaboration"; dual-wheel drive innovation system. It will further strengthen the supply of technology sources, accelerate the research and development, technology transfer and industrialization process of high-end fluorine-containing surfactants, and help the company seize the technological high ground in the industry.

Under the backdrop of the country's vigorous promotion of scientific and technological innovation and the independent control of the industrial chain, the collaboration among industry, academia and research has become an important path for new materials enterprises to break through key technologies and enhance their core competitiveness. Sanmei New Materials focuses on the "bottleneck" links of organic fluorine new materials, actively connects with the basic research advantages of universities and research institutes, and conducts in-depth cooperation in the directions of fluorine chemical synthesis mechanism, polymer structure design, preparation of environmentally friendly fluorine materials, development of special application formulas, new processes and new equipment, etc. Break through the entire chain from "basic research - application development - engineering - industrialization";.

According to the cooperation agreement, both parties will jointly build a laboratory, share scientific research instruments and testing platforms, jointly apply for scientific and technological projects, jointly carry out key technology research and development, jointly cultivate professional talents, and promote the transformation of patent achievements. Universities and research institutions provide theoretical support, cutting-edge technology directions, basic research data and expert guidance for the "Three Beauties". Sanmei provides universities with industrialization scenarios, market demands, pilot-scale platforms and engineering experience, enabling laboratory achievements to quickly move towards production lines and real application scenarios.

The cooperation focuses on four major directions: First, the design of environmentally friendly fluorine-containing surfactant molecules and the development of green synthesis processes to reduce energy consumption, minimize the three wastes, and enhance the environmental friendliness of products; The second is the application mechanism and formula optimization of special fluorine materials in high-end scenarios such as fire protection, oil fields, electronics, and coatings to enhance product compatibility and stability. The third is the research and development of new fluoropolymer materials to expand high-value-added application fields; Fourth, research on detection methods, standard systems and performance evaluation to facilitate the establishment of industry standards.

At the signing ceremony, the company's responsible person stated: "Enterprises are the main body of innovation, and universities are the source of innovation." Sanmei adheres to open innovation and does not work in isolation. Through cooperation among industry, academia and research, it transforms academic advantages into industrial advantages and scientific research achievements into customer value. We hope to work together with experts from universities to overcome a number of key core technologies, launch a batch of high-end new products, cultivate a group of professional talents, and jointly promote the high-quality development of China's fluorine new materials industry.

The representatives of the universities highly praised the cooperation: Sanmei New Materials is positioned at the high end, has clear goals, strong execution ability, and possesses a complete R&D platform and industrialization capabilities. It is an excellent partner for university-enterprise cooperation. In the future, we will fully leverage our disciplinary and talent advantages, conduct targeted research based on the real needs of enterprises, help them break through technological bottlenecks, and achieve efficient transformation of scientific and technological achievements.

This cooperation not only enhances the R&D capabilities of Sanmei Technology, but also promotes the company's upgrade from "product-driven"; to "technology-led";. By collaborating with top scientific research forces, the company can grasp the cutting-edge trends in the industry earlier, make early plans for next-generation technologies and products, and maintain long-term competitiveness. At the same time, the cooperation also provides support for the company's talent cultivation and helps the R&D team continuously enhance their professional capabilities.

In the future, Sanmei will continue to deepen the cooperation among industry, academia and research, expand the scope of cooperation, enrich the cooperation models, promote more high-level scientific research achievements to be transformed and applied in the company, drive product upgrading, market expansion and brand enhancement through technological innovation, and strive to become a benchmark enterprise for collaborative innovation among industry, academia and research in the field of organic fluorine new materials.
