Battery materials
The tide in the automobile industry is currently turning towards electrification with hybrid and electric vehicles, and cathode material (the material that the positive electrode in a battery is made from) is one of the
battery materials that facilitates this electrification.
快猫视频 mainly produces battery cathode material for vehicles, and it maintains a high market share globally thanks to its technical capabilities and quality control system that enable stable quality mass production of
cathode material which has a high nickel content and often tends to be unstable.
Crystal materials
Crystal materials produced by the 快猫视频 Group include lithium tantalate (LT) and lithium niobate (LN) that are used in filters for communication devices such as smartphones to prevent noise and interference as well as optical isolators and faraday rotators that support fiber optic environments, and these materials are being increasingly utilized to fulfill essential roles in a society witnessing a massive growth in the volume of communication and rapid digitalization.
Powder materials
Thanks to their originality, the 快猫视频 Group鈥檚 powder materials continue to grow in terms of application and potential. These materials include our own original CWO庐 (cesium tungsten oxide) and other near infrared ray absorbing materials, thick film pastes that are used as electrodes in compact electronic components, resistor elements, and insulators and can be provided to fit the intended use, and fine grain metallic powder products produced from our outstanding powder synthesis technology based on wet synthesis.
Package materials
The 快猫视频 Group offers package material such as copper-clad polyimide films and printed wiring boards. The copper-clad polyimide films, S鈥橮ERFLEX, incorporate refined high-level metallizing technology and achieve the high-quality characteristics demanded of COF for LCD panels. The printed wiring boards achieve high-quality at a low cost with their foundation of a long track record in circuit boards for vehicles, and a policy of integrated in-process production system.
Silicon Carbide (SiC) Substrates
Silicon -Carbide (SiC) is a semiconductor material that is used in power semiconductors that control electric power. The market for SiC, as an excellent material that can reduce energy loss, is expected to expand, particularly for high-capacity types (large current, high withstand voltage), which are necessary for drive controllers in electric and hybrid vehicles.
Our direct bonded SiC substrate, SiCkrest, is able to realize a low resistance and a high strength throughout the entire substrate while maintaining the characteristics of a monocrystalline SiC. This is accomplished through bonding a low-resistance polycrystalline SiC support substrate with a thin, high-quality monocrystal. Furthermore, SiC monocrystal require a lot of energy to produce, but our technology can increase the supply to the market while reducing overall energy consumption by repeatedly using this rare monocrystal. This feature has attracted a lot of attention from the market.
* Registration of the 鈥淪iCkrest鈥� trademark is currently pending.
Catalyst Business
Catalysts perform an important role in chemical processes for products by acting as a promoter that brings about a variety of chemical reactions. In the 快猫视频 Group, N.E. Chemcat Corporation manufactures automobile exhaust gas purification catalysts and chemical catalysts, while Nippon Ketjen Co., Ltd. manufactures hydrotreating catalysts that are used in the desulfurization process in oil refining.
