Zhong Faping's research achievements

From 65438 to 0997, Zhong Faping, one of the youngest researchers in Chinese Academy of Sciences, returned to his hometown with the ideal of rejuvenating the country through science and technology and serving the country through industry. He led the entrepreneurial team to overcome difficulties and independently developed continuous strip nickel foam (the key material of Ni-MH battery), which filled a gap in the field of new energy materials in China and broke the technical blockade and market monopoly of western countries in this field.

Changsha Liyuan New Materials Co., Ltd., founded by him, has formed a production scale with an annual output value of more than 300 million yuan after just five years of development, and has become one of the largest continuous strip nickel foam production bases in the world, with a market share of 26%. The export rate of leading products reaches 50%, and the annual foreign exchange earning capacity reaches more than 20 million US dollars. He hatched and led the creation of three high-tech enterprises with independent intellectual property rights, and formed the embryonic form of industrial chain with advanced battery materials, high-energy batteries and power tools as the main line. He has published more than 30 papers in first-class journals at home and abroad, and obtained 8 national patents independently and cooperatively.
