Postdoctoral research workstation

The postdoctoral research workstation (hereinafter referred to as “Workstation”) of Kingfa Science & Technology Co., Ltd. was established in December 2003 after being approved by the State Personnel Board. The workstation has a postdoctoral leading group, with Zhimin Yuan, the chairman of Kingfa Science & Technology Co., Ltd. as the group head, dominated by the technical system, cooperated by Human Resources Department, Project Management Department, Finance Department and other departments, which provide support for the normal operation of the workstation. To culture outstanding senior talents and promote high-quality research results, a number of academicians, experts and professors have been hired to provide guidance to the staff in the workstation and the mobile stations in universities, national engineering laboratories, the state key laboratories and the state-level enterprise technical centers and other platforms are utilized to culture outstanding high-level talents.

Since its establishment, the workstation has trained more than 40 researchers with postdoctoral degree, of which 23 persons have successfully completed their research work. Many researchers who have been outside or in the postdoctoral station jointly participated and are responsible for 3 national projects, such as “National Science and Technology Support Program”, “National 863 Program Project”, “National Major Scientific Instruments and Equipment Development Project” and over 10 provincial and ministerial level research projects. In recent years, the workstation had innumerable great achievements, including more than 200 patents for invention, dozens of high-level papers, and dozens of national and local standards. In addition, the research results researched and developed by the workstation were industrialized and created enormous economic and social benefits for the company.

All postdoctoral researchers can not only enjoy the subsidies from the state and local governments but also favorable remuneration from the company, including salaries, benefits, housing and professional title evaluation. Furthermore, the company actively promotes the industrialization of postdoctoral research results and will give rewards to researchers who create obvious economic benefits.

Scientific research projects:

I. Special engineering plastics

 Speciality engineering plastics   Speciality engineering plastics are at the cutting edge of engineering plastics and characterized by outstanding properties including high strength, radiation resistance and high temperature resistance. They are an important part of advanced materials in the strategic emerging industries nurtured and developed by the state. They play a fundamental role in supporting the development of other strategic emerging industries and main industries, such as new energy, and can be widely used in military, electronic appliances, automobiles, aviation and other fields. Kingfa has the leading-edge R&D team in this field at home and abroad. It has made breakthroughs in key preparation technologies of PA10T, PEEK and other speciality engineering plastics and has independent intellectual property rights. The quality and sales of some products have top ranks in the world.  

II. Fully biodegradable high-performance plastic 

Fully biodegradable plastics can be decomposed into environmental friendly substances in a relatively short time under natural conditions. They represent an important way to solve the “white pollution” problem caused by plastic, especially disposable plastic products. As a leading modified plastic enterprise in China, Kingfa Science & Technology has grasped key technologies of the synthetic process of biodegradable plastics and its equipment. The degradation performance of the product has passed many international authoritative certifications such as USA BPI, EU EN13432, Australia AS4736-2006, meeting the most stringent international standards. The technology reaches the international advanced level and the performance is similar to or even superior to international similar products. In 2007, the product was named the national key new product. On the basis of the key technology of synthesis, the company has successfully developed three series of fully biodegradable high-performance plastic products such as Flex series, Bio series and AFR series, completely meeting the demands of different markets for biodegradable and biology based products; therefore, Kingfa becomes one of the companies in the world with the most complete fully degradable plastic product portfolio.

III. High-performance carbon fiber

Carbon fiber is a kind of key raw material for developing strategic emerging industries in the country. It has an excellent comprehensive performance, characterized by lightweight, high strength and hardness and high temperature resistance. Therefore, it is widely used in civil aviation aircraft, clean energy, transportation and other national economic fields. High-performance carbon fiber project is a key provincial and municipal key construction project undertaken by Kingfa Science & Technology and included in the key construction projects of “four-year great development” planned by the provincial Party committee and government for the Pearl River Delta.
