Advanced technology of focusing photoresist and polyimide

ShanghaiSeptember 16, 2022/ PR Newswire /-- at present, promoting the technological innovation of domestic high-end photoresist and polyimide and speeding up the breakthrough of core technology and industrial application have become a major focus of the development of domestic materials field. September 7-8, the 2022 Seminar on Advanced Technology and Industrial Application of Photoresist and Polyimide, co-sponsored by the Electronic Chemical New Materials production Line Alliance and China Electronic Materials Industry Association, co-sponsored by Anqing Municipal Government and Feikai Materials, was successfully held in Anqing City, Anhui Province. Experts from enterprises, scientific research institutes and financial investment institutions from the upper and lower reaches of the industrial chain gathered to discuss the development strategy and layout of photoresist and polyimide industry. The visiting activities of Feikai materials in Anqing production line are also specially arranged on the agenda of this seminar.

The market demand for core materials such as photoresist is huge.

This meeting actively responded to the call of the national "2025 manufacturing", focused on the advanced technology of photoresist and polyimide, promoted the exchange and cooperation of photoresist and related industrial chain enterprises in the display and integrated circuit industry, and contributed to the healthy and stable development of the industry. At the same time, the meeting played a positive role in enhancing the influence of Anqing Economic Development Zone, publicizing local related industries and development layout, so it was strongly supported by the government and concerned by various authoritative fields.

At present, there is still a certain gap between China's new materials industry and the international level, and the development of the domestic electronic information industry has driven a huge market demand, so domestic materials will become the main theme of the industry development in the future. Photoresist is a key material for micro-pattern processing in the electronic field, which is widely used in the manufacture of integrated circuits, flat panel displays and semiconductor separation devices. As one of the organic polymer materials with super comprehensive performance, polyimide is regarded as an indispensable "super chemical new material" for the future high-tech development, which can solve the thorny problems of many technical scenarios. The importance of both to the development of China's high-tech industry has become increasingly prominent. Guohai Securities pointed out that in recent years, the upgrading of the electronic information industry has been accelerated, the superimposed semiconductor and display panel industry has moved eastward, and the domestic demand for photoresist has increased rapidly. According to its estimates, from 2022 to 2025, the size of this market will reach 222,250,281 and 31.6 billion yuan, with broad room for growth.

Promote industrial upgradingThe localization of materials is accelerated.

Feikai Materials, as a technology company that provides high-quality materials for high-tech manufacturing, has been committed to the innovation of material applications since it was founded in 2002. Over the years, it has actively expanded the technological collaboration among industries, through independent innovation and mergers and acquisitions, the core business scope has been extended from the field of optical communication to semiconductors, screen display, pharmaceutical intermediates and other fields.

At present, Feikai Materials has four plate businesses: UV curing materials, screen display materials, semiconductor materials and pharmaceutical intermediates, and the business of each plate has achieved balanced development. Its wholly-owned subsidiary "Jiangsu Hecheng display Technology Co., Ltd." is a high-tech enterprise specializing in the research and development, production and sales of liquid crystal display materials. The company insists on independent innovation, takes the lead in breaking the technological monopoly of international liquid crystal giants, gradually establishes its important position in the industry of liquid crystal materials for flat panel display, and is an important supplier for major domestic panel enterprises. Since joining Feikai Materials formally in 2017, it has carried out a high degree of resource integration and allocation with the head office, constantly releasing its own potential, deepening research and development in the field of display materials, expanding product categories, and upgrading production capacity. it has further strengthened its position in the field of display materials.

In the field of photoresist products, Feikai materials can now provide positive and negative photoresist used in TFT-LCD manufacturing, as well as I-line photoresist, BARC and other products used in semiconductor manufacturing, which are highly dependent on imported materials with high domestic technical barriers.

The breakthrough innovative products have consolidated the position of Feikai Materials in the industry and laid a solid foundation for further promoting the development of the industry. In order to realize the large-scale production of innovative products, the group has laid out its own production base early. The Anqing production base of Feikai materials visited in this meeting is an important link. The Group has successively set up Anqing Feikai New Materials Co., Ltd. and Anhui Jingkai Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. in Anqing City, Anhui Province, to build a large-scale modern production base, covering a total area of about 603mu. The main business is photoresist and supporting materials, screen display materials (LCD,OLED Special film), integrated circuit electronic packaging materials (EMC) and other products, UV curing optical fiber and cable coating materials, halogenated hydrocarbon pharmaceutical intermediates, new photoinitiators, special surface coatings and resins and other products R & D, production and sales.

This meeting mainly visited the production workshop of screen display materials (LCD,OLED, special film) and integrated circuit electronic packaging materials (EMC) of Anhui Jingkai Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. Let the guests have a close understanding of the industrialization of Feikai materials in the display field such as OLED products. In the course of the visit, Feikai Materials and colleagues in the industry jointly exchange the experience and methods accumulated in the process of development, with a view to bringing more discussion and inspiration.

Give full play to the advantages of platform and promote the coordinated development of the industry

This Feikai material takes the "2022 Photoresist and Polyimide Advanced Technology and Industrial Application Seminar" as the exchange platform to open up the communication chain between the upstream and downstream of the industry, allowing people in the industry to exchange technology and ideas, exchange needed goods, and inject full power into the industry, and join hands with the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain to promote the vigorous development of the industry.

It takes a good blacksmith to make good steel. Feikai material has continuously strengthened its innovation in products, technology and technology since its inception. As CEO Mr. Su Bin stressed in an interview with Xinhua News Agency, the Group has been committed to providing high-quality materials for high-tech manufacturing and striving to achieve self-control of new materials. As a diversified development platform of high-tech materials, innovation is the core of the enterprise. The annual R & D cost of Feikai Materials accounts for about 7% of the total revenue, and the huge R & D investment has established the enterprise's deep technology reserve. In the future, Feikai material expects to strengthen exchanges with brother companies in all aspects of the industrial chain to jointly promote the vigorous development of China's high-tech manufacturing.
