Since 2009
Our R&D center has been operating since 2007. It’s our core technology center. We take on leadership positions in different steel associations(China Special Steel Enterprises Association, China Iron and Steel Association).
Multiple R&D Centers
We both have national, provincial, and municipal-level research centers:
2015: National Postdoctoral Research Station
2011: Jiangsu Provincial Enterprise Technology Center, and more than three municipal technology centers.
National & Provincial Project
Our powerful R&D capabilities can undertake multiple national and provincial research projects:
National: Since 2012, we have undertaken 2 National Torch Program Projects, including “High-Strength Ultra-Low Carbon and Nitrogen-Controlled Austenitic Stainless Steel.”
Provincial: We have undertaken 4 key projects, including “Jiangsu Province Scientific and Technological Achievement Transformation” and “Jiangsu Province Industrial Technology Support.”
Our Patents & Key Products
By 2024, we will have 118 patents, including 27 invention patents, 2 national key new products, and 11 Jiangsu provincial high technology products.
Setting Standards
Since 2012, we have revised 6 national standards and 5 metallurgical industry standards and set 2 new industry standards.
Advanced Testing Centers and Research Facilities
We have established an independent Testing Center, which incorporates multiple specialized laboratories, including a Spectral Analysis Laboratory, Corrosion Resistance Testing Laboratory, Metallographic Analysis Laboratory, Chemical Analysis Laboratory, Mechanical Property Laboratory, and Carbon Analysis Laboratory.
The center is equipped with advanced R&D and testing equipment, such as direct-reading spectrometers (e.g., SPECTRO models from Germany), metallographic microscopes, oxygen-nitrogen-hydrogen analyzers, carbon-sulfur analyzers, universal testing machines, impact testing machines, salt spray testers, stainless steel wire rope bending fatigue testers, torsion testing machines, winding testing machines, and automatic calorimeters.
