Recently, at the Shandong Provincial Science and Technology Conference, the project "Manufacturing and 10,000-ton Industrialization of High-Grade Polybutene Series Materials Based on Industrial Foundation Technology Innovation" jointly carried out by Dongfang Hongye and Qingdao University of Science and Technology and other units won the first prize of Shandong Provincial Technological Invention Award. This award not only affirms the achievements of the cooperation between the two sides, but also marks that Dongfang Hongye's technological innovation and industrialization capabilities in the field of polyolefin materials have reached a new level.

This project is jointly carried out by Dongfang Hongye and Qingdao University of Science and Technology and other units through the in-depth integration of industry, academia and research, focusing on the research and development and industrialization of new polybutene materials. As early as 2010, the two sides had already begun in-depth cooperation. By undertaking the national "863 Science and Technology Program" projects, they jointly committed to the research and development and industrialization of polybutene technology. The teams from both sides worked closely together and successfully developed a new type of polybutene material with independent intellectual property rights by adopting the bulk precipitation polymerization process. In 2014, Dongfang Hongye completed the construction of the first domestic 10,000-ton SPG continuous process industrial demonstration facility with independent intellectual property rights and achieved stable operation of the facility. The completion of this device marks a crucial step forward in the industrialization of polybutene in China.

This project mainly focuses on core technical challenges such as catalysis, materials, processes, and engineering, achieving breakthroughs in the full-process core technologies of high-end tube materials. It has broken the long-term foreign technological monopoly, filled the domestic gap, and realized the import substitution of key materials, providing strong support for the vigorous development of related industries.

Dongfang Hongye has always been driven by technological innovation and has established close cooperative relationships with universities and research institutions such as Qingdao University of Science and Technology. In the future, Dongfang Hongye will continue to rely on its advantages in industrial research and development and engineering, and join hands with Qingdao University of Science and Technology. Focusing on national strategic demands, it will strengthen fundamental research on catalysis and polymerization as well as industrialization research on engineering equipment, and concentrate on key technological breakthroughs in polyolefin materials, making greater contributions to the upgrading and development of the polyolefin materials industry.

Taking this as an opportunity, Dongfang Hongye will continue to increase its investment in research and development, strengthen cooperation with universities and research institutions, and constantly launch high-performance polyolefin materials with independent intellectual property rights. The "Key Core Technology Research and Industrialization Demonstration Project of Ultra-High Performance Semi-crystalline Polyaryletherketone" applied for by Shandong Dongfang Hongye Chemical Co., Ltd. successfully won the special project of "Major Scientific and Technological Innovation Project of Shandong Provincial Department of Science and Technology". This is not only a high recognition of the company's technological innovation capabilities, development potential and social value, but also a powerful testament to our deep commitment to the industry and our determination to break through, providing an important guarantee for future research and development.

Polyaryletherketones mainly include polyetheretherketone (PEEK), polyether ketone (PEK), etc. Polyetheretherketone is a semi-crystalline ultra-high-performance thermoplastic polymer material, featuring outstanding fatigue resistance and chemical resistance, as well as excellent impact resistance. It can maintain its superior mechanical properties at a continuous high temperature of 260°C. Regarded as one of the best-performing semi-crystalline thermoplastic polymer materials today, it can effectively replace metals in some extremely harsh end-use environments for injection molding, extrusion, additive manufacturing (3D printing), and composite material manufacturing.

Since its establishment, Shandong Dongfang Hongye Chemical Co., Ltd. has always adhered to the mission of creating a better life for mankind through science and technology and innovation. It has continuously increased investment in research and development, gathered top talents, and overcome technical difficulties. This major breakthrough in provincial-level scientific research and innovation is the result of the company's scientific research team's years of working day and night, overcoming difficulties, and constantly innovating and exploring. This is not only an affirmation of our past efforts, but also injects strong impetus into the future development of the enterprise, marking that the company has reached a new stage of research and development innovation with its outstanding strength. Taking this as an opportunity, the company will further increase its investment in research and development, deepen the cooperation among industry, academia and research, accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, enhance its core competitiveness, and repay the society with better products and services, contributing more to the development of the industry.
