Top 10 Chinese Rare Earth Inventions in 2002
Sponsored by Chinese Rare Earth Information center, The technology and information Committee of Chinese Rare Earth Society, China Northern Rare Earth Productivity Promotion Center, and magazines including Chinese Rare Earth Information, Rare Earth, and Rare Earth Information, 10 inventions and research results are chosen as the most valued achievements in the Chinese rare earth industry in 2002.
1. NdFeB Permanent Magnetic Alloy Preparation by Co-Precipitation Reducing Diffusion
The new neodymium-iron-boron alloy preparation technology, invented by Professor Yongchia Zhou at Naikai University, gained patent world-wide. China hence becomes the 3rd country who owns the intelligence right of producing NdFeB materials after Japan and the US. The new production technology features lower energy consumption and low cost.
2. Rare Earth Nano Display Screen
The 1st rare earth nano display screen in China was invented by Changchun Applied Chemistry Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Science. The projection screen coated with nano rare earth oxide has wider viewing angle, high clarity, and stable brightness and color.
3. Environmental, Ecological and Toxicological Research on Rare Earth Application in Agriculture
The research covers rare earth pedology, botanical physiology, and rare earth application effect in agriculture, rare earth toxicological hygiene and super-microanalysis. The 4 year project is supported by the National natural Science Fund.
4. High Power Capacity NiMH battery for Automobile
Tianjin Peace Gulf Batteries Group Co. Ltd. successfully developed a book-sized sealed Ni-MH cell with 100 Amh. The cell was tested on electric vehicle and has a range of 228 kilometers and can reach the top speed of 128 km per hour.
5. Rare Earth Promotes Synthesis of Anti-Cancer Medicine
After 8 years' hard work, researchers in the Chemical Institute of Tianjin University develops a new technique using rare earth to promote the synthesis of taxol, the most important anti-cancer medicine. This new technique increases the output of taxol by 5 times.
6. Magnetic Refrigerating Materials at Room Temperature
Sichuan University and Sichuan Rare Earth Materials and Application Engineering Research Institute completed the research of room temperature magnetic refrigerating materials which is a foundation of air conditioning and nuclear waste treatment applications
7. Europium Electrolysis Reducing Process
The new process done by Beijing Non-Ferrous Metal Research Institute features higher product purity, shorter process time, lower production cost, and little pollution. A production line of high purity europium oxide utilizing this new technology has been set up in Gansu and will reach 18 metric tons per year.
8. Rare Earth Aluminate Blue Phosphor for High Colorable Lamp Awarded
The rare earth aluminate blue phosphor for high colorable lamp invented by Shanghai Yuelong New Materials Co. Ltd. introduces Mn into the composite of phosphor, improves the coloration of phosphor.
9. The Largest High Temperature Sm-B-Co Super Conductor Single Crystal
The Crystal Growth Lab at Shanghai Jiaotong University succeeded in growing the largest high temperature Sm-B-Co superconductive single crystal in the world.
10. New Rare Earth Semiconductor Material
Nanjing University, Physics Institute of the Chinese Academy of Science and Motorola Chinese Research Institute jointly announced that they found lanthanum aluminate and LaAion have better thermal stability than other materials with high dielectric constant. It plays an important role in replacing traditional silicon oxide for the next generation semiconductor devices.
