Chapter 463: New research ideas

Hirano Masao and Nakagawa Motohisa left like a baby with a small piece of samarium ferroalloy from Sun Yuzhi, and they will return to Japan on the earliest flight for the most comprehensive test of this sample. Evaluate the value of this new type of permanent magnetic material.
Sun Yuzhi sent Hirano and her entourage to the Daqin Group Office in Beijing and watched them take a taxi to leave. Then they returned to the building and came to Qinhai's office. Qin Hai greeted Sun Yuzhi and sat down on the sofa, watching him look worried, and asked with a smile: "Why, Sun, haven't you figured it out?"
"Taking the ferroalloy patent in exchange for the neodymium-iron-boron patent, isn't this deal a bit of a loss?" Sun Yuzhi asked.
Qin Haidao: "Although samarium ferroalloy has better performance than NdFeB in all aspects, its high price is its biggest problem. This problem determines its future as a chicken rib. The market for NdFeB will further expand A big piece of fat. What's not worth it for a piece of chicken ribs for another piece of fat? "
"I'm engaged in scientific research and don't know much about the market. President Qin, do you really believe that ferroalloy will be too expensive to be promoted?" Sun Yuzhi asked neatly.
The research idea of ​​hafnium alloy was first provided to Sun Yuzhi by Qin Hai. Based on Sun Yuzhi's initial thoughts, he also felt that the price of 镝 and 铽 is too high, and the market prospect of new materials is not good. But at that time, Qin Hai was actively encouraging him to conduct research, and also said that as long as it was researched, it would be useful.
Sun Yuzhi mixes samarium iron boron and samarium iron boron with different formulas. It was unexpectedly found that the mixed sinter has a high magnetic energy product and Curie temperature, far exceeding the properties of neodymium iron boron. But when he was excited and pleased to Qin posters, Qin Hai said that what he had made was nothing more than tasteless. Might as well exchange the patent of NdFeB with Chunshan Company.
Qin Hai's practice of turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands with rain turned out to make Sun Yuzhi incomprehensible. However, people are bosses and they are just employees. Since the boss has decided so, what else can he say? He faintly felt that Qin Hai must have said nothing. This is not something he should ask.
Qin Hai did have something to hide from Sun Yuzhi, not because he did not believe in Sun Yuzhi's loyalty. I was just worried that this nerd would inadvertently say that it leaked and leaked the secret. Qin Hai's plan is to lead Chunshan to the evil road of thorium alloy, and then use the rare earth monopoly right he just acquired. Raising the prices of osmium and osmium ten times, making osmium ferroalloys a luxury that no one can afford. At that time, Chunshan Company should regret the concession of the NdFeB patent.
In addition to the rare earth management right, Qin Hai also has another hand, which is another cheaper research idea for new rare earth permanent magnet materials. After Chunshan Company has gone far enough on the road of ferroalloy, if this new material can come out, it will ruin Chunshan's efforts once.
"Old Sun, rest assured, the group will not do things that are unsure." Qin Hai said. "By the way, from now on, you leave the research of hafnium alloy to students. I have another research idea. I want you to try it."
"What's the idea?" Sun Yuzhi asked curiously.
Qin Haidao: "If you think about it, in the periodic table, boron is next to silicon and carbon, and further away, nitrogen and phosphorus. The properties of these elements are similar. If you use boron with these elements, Instead, replace neodymium with adjacent samarium, cerium, and lanthanum. Can it produce one or more new permanent magnet materials? Especially replace cerium with cerium to form a cerium-based rare earth material with strong magnetic properties. . "
"Cerium is used to replace neodymium. Carbon or nitrogen is used to replace boron?" Sun Yuzhi stared at his eyes with an unbelievable look. "This idea is quite novel. I think that the synthesis of carbides is a bit difficult. What about nitrides? The stability is not enough, and it is easy to escape during the sintering process. How to solve this problem? "
"Old Sun, shouldn't this problem come from your mouth?" Qin Hai laughed. "You are confused, there are always ways to solve the process problems. In the worst case, the sintering process is not feasible, and the bonding process is also not possible. Can't it? "
Sun Yuzhi also laughed embarrassedly. He also cares and messes up. In fact, there is no need to worry too much about the technical issues. There are always more ways than difficulties. He patted his head and said, "It's really confusing, it's really confusing. However, President Qin, your idea is really interesting. If you can really succeed, you can use cerium instead of neodymium, then the price of permanent magnet materials can be suddenly It's 70% or 80% lower. This is an epoch-making invention ... By the way, the ferroalloy will really become a chicken rib! "
Speaking of the last sentence, he suddenly felt a sense of realization. The biggest problem of samarium ferroalloy is that it is expensive. From the perspective of cost performance, it is still insufficient than neodymium iron boron. If one day, if you can invent a cerium-based permanent magnet material that is cheaper than neodymium-iron-boron, then the ferrite alloy will be even less valuable. No wonder Qin Hai was so generous about willing to exchange ferroalloys with Chunshan Company, which turned out to be such an idea.
Thinking of this, Sun Yuzhi faintly felt that perhaps Qin Hai had already had a very mature idea about what he called the cerium-based rare earth permanent magnet material, otherwise he would not dare to lay such a big round and wait for the Japanese to jump in. Qin Hai's previous actions have proved that he has an exceptionally accurate intuition in materials research. So, this time, his intuition should not fail, right?
"This is just an idea of ​​mine. Whether it will work or not depends on your research." Qin Hai naturally will not reveal where his prophets came from. He said, "Once Chunshan is willing to produce NdFe In exchange for the patent of boron, the group will immediately enter the neodymium-iron-boron industry. I will use 30% of the profits obtained to support the research and development of new cerium-based materials. You can let it go. Money is not a problem.
"Haha, okay, with the words of President Qin, I will bring you new materials anyway." Sun Yuzhi was so excited that he patted his chest and assured Qin Hai.
Regarding scientific research, what Qin Hai can do now is to do his best to provide some inspiration, and then give strong support in terms of people, finances and things. The School of Materials has now formed a good set of scientific research mechanisms. Whether it is scientific research services or incentives, it is very mature, reaching Qin Hai's original vision.
The Materials Science and Technology Exhibition was held for a week, attracting the attention of a large group of people, from central leaders to ordinary elementary and middle school students. Numerous Chinese and foreign media have been reporting various tidbits at the material exhibition, from magical new materials to various ingenious experience games. Popular science work related to materials science has also taken the opportunity to set off a boom. A group of materials scientists, including Chen Heqian, have received letters from several publishing houses.
Dozens of new material patents invented by Anhe Material College have found buyers at the exhibition. Although the sales income is only more than 10 million yuan, for the scholars of the Material College, it has been an unexpected gain. They have finally been able to prove that they are not eating for nothing, but that they can generate revenue for the School of Materials. According to the incentive policy of the School of Materials, patent inventors can get a portion of the patent sales income as a reward. In just a few days, six or seven "ten millionaires" have been added to the college, as for "ten thousand households" and the like , Then no one will pay attention.
The sales of various patents of the Anhe Institute of Materials Technology have also had a demonstration effect on other domestic universities and research institutes. Some leaders with flexible brains have proposed slogans such as "patenting schools" and "applying first", forming a theory in each unit. A combination of practice and practice.
The biggest achievement of the Material Science and Technology Exhibition is to let the central leaders and a large number of ministries and officials recognize the position of materials in modern industry. A few days after the end of the material exhibition, the State Planning Commission submitted to the central government a plan for a new round of major key equipment tackling actions. The plan clearly stated that the key task was to tackle key issues with materials and processes, abandoning the past heavy products and light materials. And craft thinking. This plan was affirmed by the leaders of the central government. Several leaders gave instructions in the plan, stating that they should focus on the development of new materials and processes. These leaders' instructions became the precious swords in the hands of the Planning Commission, and quickly passed to the hands of key enterprises involved in tackling key problems.
The reinstallation office conducted another bidding ~ EbookFREE.me ~ This time, the plans reported by various enterprises have changed significantly, and the material and process issues that have been plagued by the development of the equipment manufacturing industry have been raised to important positions. In fact, the leaders and technical staff of various companies are veterans who have worked in the industrial field for many years. Where can I not know which things are most important. In the past, they were only guided by a baton from their superiors, and they were afraid to put too much energy into the materials. Now they have reached a consensus from top to bottom, and they naturally focused their work on the right Position up.
Qin Hai, along with Chen Heqian, Li Linguang, and other dry material experts have become busier. As for the materials research projects declared by the enterprises, they not only need to review, but also discuss with the enterprises, make suggestions for the enterprises, and help them find channels to solve the problems. Many enterprises have problems that have certain commonalities, and Qin Hai has helped them establish a cooperative relationship and work together to solve the problem.
After being busy for more than two months, all the work is considered to be an end, only to wait for the fruits to ripen, and to harvest fruitful scientific research results. Qin Hai handed over the work of reinstallation to Wang Hongsheng, and then took Chen Heqian, Li Linguang, Yue Kun and others, accompanied by a naval officer, to 33 naval forces. (To be continued)
ps: Students in science and engineering can look at the periodic table. Carbon and nitrogen are really close to boron. The idea of ​​replacing boron with nitrogen is feasible ... well, this is the fourth generation rare earth permanent magnet material now said
