Leaders from Sinopec Corp., Sinopec Group Capital and others investigated liquid flow battery and hydrogen energy proton exchange membrane companies

On the afternoon of August 29, Yu Baocai, senior vice president of Sinopec, and his team visited the headquarters of Kerun Group. Yang Dawei, the company's founder and chairman, warmly received the research team.

Accompanied by the company's chairman Yang Dawei, Yu Baocai and his party first visited the company's exhibition hall and listened carefully to Chairman Yang Dawei's introduction to the company's development history, product system, application scenarios and market share; then he walked into the company's R&D center and production workshop to learn more about the R&D, production, testing, and application of proton membranes.

At the subsequent symposium, Chairman Yang Dawei extended a warm welcome to the leaders of Sinopec. He said that China's energy storage and hydrogen energy have achieved rapid development in recent years. The company is one of the earliest enterprises in China to engage in proton membrane research and industrialization, and it is just in time. The company has spent ten years to develop and solve the core membrane material problem that is "stuck in the neck" in my country's liquid flow energy storage and hydrogen energy fields, and has achieved the domestic independence of perfluorosulfonic acid proton membranes and perfluorosulfonic acid resins. At the same time, it has achieved remarkable research results in the downstream hydrogen energy PEM water electrolysis field, and successfully opened up the whole industrial chain layout from "fluorine monomer-resin synthesis-membrane preparation-detection application development". During the exchange, Cao Pengfei, head of the company's innovation and development department, reported in detail to the leaders and experts on the company's product system, leading technical indicators and innovative achievements in the field of hydrogen energy proton membranes and PEM hydrogen production equipment.

Yu Baocai highly recognized the company's achievements and development in the field of hydrogen energy core materials, and said that Sinopec is vigorously promoting the green transformation of energy and vigorously developing hydrogen energy integrated business, which will lead, promote, support and serve the development of the hydrogen energy industry. Sinopec will play the leading role in the hydrogen energy industry chain, continue to strengthen technological innovation, strengthen the collaborative research of enterprises in the industry chain, and promote the development of the domestic hydrogen energy industry. As an important hydrogen energy material enterprise invested by Sinopec, Kerun has developed rapidly. The two sides will further strengthen exchanges, collaborate on technical research, expand more application scenarios in the field of hydrogen energy and other fields, and jointly promote the high-quality development of the hydrogen energy industry.

Finally, he hoped that the company would continue to maintain its "original intention" and passion; continue to maintain "concentration" and make good hydrogen energy core materials; continue to stay ahead and be ahead of its competitors in product performance. In the field, it should continue to innovate, continue to iterate research and development, produce more results, and achieve greater results in energy storage and hydrogen energy scene applications.
