Production-study-research cooperation

We have been collaborating with Professor You Jinsong at Sichuan University. Professor You’s research team is mainly basedatInstitute of GreenChemistry and Technology at Sichuan University. His . Professor You’s laboratory is well equipped with the complete instruments, such as glove box, HPLC, GC, GC-MS,UV, etc. as well as other preparation and separation equipment. Both Sichuan University Analysis &Test Center and The Center Laboratory of The College of Chemistry have in situ FT-IR,NMR, MSand XRD, etc. This ensures the effective preparation and characterization of the synthesized compounds.

Professor You’s R&D team is mainly committed to the development of new organic synthesis reactions, the new methods, the new strategies, the new development of areas of chemical selectivity and high selectivity, environmentally friendly and atomic economy of synthesis methods of aromatic ring compounds, and to promote the development of green organic synthesis chemistry. This team is recognized as the one committed to the development of "high new selective organic synthesis reactions and the new strategies" by the National Natural Science Foundation of Innovation. The team currently has 4 professors. There are 2 people over 40 years old, 4 people between 35-40 years old, and 3 people between 25-35 years old. Among them, 1 person has been included in the new century excellent talents to support plan, 1 person has obtained the national outstanding youth science fund. Their research fields and backgrounds cover organic chemistry, material chemistry, supramolecular chemistry, and chemical biology. It’s a creative, high leveled and comprehensive team with a total of40 Ph.D. Master students.

Overall aims
We respond to the market demands driven by scientific research and development, in aim of regional economic development. We proceed progressively by the development of high technologies in order to benefit from research, pilot, production, operation, and service.

We track the cutting-edge technology of high-performance polyimide materials and related fields. We develop new technologies, processes, and products through the collaborations with universities and institutes. We strive to lead in the field of polyimide monomer both nationally and internationally. We also strive to build a talent team focusing on research, production, and applied technology to advance the development of polyimide in China, especially in Jiangsu Province.

We have developed some monomers to fill the domestic void. We anticipate to independently and progressively develop intellectual properties and apply for 3 – 5 patents in China. We strive to be in the leading production position of polyimide monomer materials to promote the rapid development in China, not only for replacing the imported ones, but also for exporting them.

R & D Direction

With the development of science and technology, as well as the rapid development in the fields of IT, microelectronics recently, more advanced and updated materials are needed. New varieties, technologies, and processes for polyimide are needed to be developed to meet the new requirements. Polyimide’s main developing trends are as the followings:

（3）Easilyprocessed, highlyflexibleand high heat-resistant polyimide matrix resins
a.Use asymmetric binary anhydrides or diamine monomers
b. Use triple-bond type of alkynyl end capping agents or benzynylend capping agents

（2）Low dielectric constant polyimides
         a. Fluorinated polyimides
         b. Cycloaliphaticpolyimides
         c. Porous polyimides

（1）Soluble polyimides
a.Introduce the fluorine atom into the polyimide structure to synthesizethe fluorinated polyimides
b. Introducebulky groups (steric hinderedgroups or substituents).
c. Introduce polar groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, etc.
d. Use cycloaliphaticmonomer, tosynthesizethesemi aromatic or whole cycloaliphaticpolyimides
