On April 20, 2004, Dr.
Long L¨³,
vice director of Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry (SIOC)
CAS and Chairman of Shanghai TL Chemical Co., Ltd (STLC)
paid a visit to Powerzinc Electric (Shanghai), Inc.
together with Mr. Huangkuan Kong, the Executive Vice
General Manager of STLC.
STLC was established in
Feb. 2002, organized and set up by Shanghai Institute of
Organic Chemistry of Chinese Academy of Sciences (SIOC),
Shanghai Tong Ji Science & Technology Industry Co., Ltd.
and Shanghai Shen Li Hi-tech
Co., Ltd. STLC, a hi-tech company, is mainly engaged in
the research and development of the key materials and
components of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC)
such as Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM), Membrane Electrode
Assembly (MEA) and
Flow Field Plates etc.;
meanwhile it also engages in the development of and
technical service for fine chemical products. STLC
currently assumes the responsibilities of both developing
innovative projects for CAS and the National Hi-tech
Research and Development Program (customarily called 863
program) for The Ministry of Science and Technology of
China.
Dr. L¨³,
Long had the experience of working in Dupont (US) Company,
the world largest Chemical Company. He has been engaged in
the research and development of organic fluoride chemistry
and fluoric materials. Currently, he is the specialist in
the Specific Theme Group for materials of special
functions in the field of advance materials in the 863
Program. He is quite familiar with the research and
development of the various fuel cells and related
materials. During the visit, Dr. L¨³
got acquainted with Powerzinc¡¯s product - DQFC zinc air
fuel cells, its development progress, technical
advantages, business pattern and current market feedbacks
in detail, he also visited the plant and tried the e-bike
powered by DQFC zinc air fuel cells. He appreciates very
much the everlasting efforts that Powerzinc has been
endeavoring to promote the industrialization of zinc air
fuel cells and the outstanding achievements already
acquired. Dr. L¨³
considers that DQFC series of zinc air fuel cells, as a
kind of power cell, has tremendous potentials and vast
developing spaces.
As STLC is rather strong
in the R&D of fuel cell materials and in the organic
synthesis field, Powerzinc Electric and STLC reached a
friendly cooperation agreement during the visit. In the
future, STLC will actively cooperate with Powerzinc to
develop the key materials used in DQFC zinc air fuel cell
to enhance the product performance and reduce the cost at
a large scale, thereby to speedup the progress of market
popularization of DQFC zinc air fuel cells, which are the
most advanced fuel cells in the world.
