"We’ve been recognized overseas for the next generation of new materials developed in the lab."
Professor Kwon Han-sang
The university has attracted the attention of academia and industry by a professor who has established a company using technology developed in his laboratory and then made good results by signing a large sales contract with foreign companies. Kwon Han-sang, a professor of Pukyong National University and the representative of Next Generation Materials Co. Ltd., is the main character of this topic. Professor Kwon recently concluded sales contracts with four companies in Japan, Taiwan, Singapore and the United States for US $ 700,000 (about 800 million won). He has developed heat protection, high strength, ultra-light-weight pipes, profiles, heat sinks and other products. Professor Kwon founded the Next Generation Materials Co. Ltd., in 2015 and combined new materials such as carbon nanotubes, aluminum and copper to create a new hybrid composite material that is lighter or stronger than existing metals, ceramics and polymers. Professor Kwon, who has developed 10 different types of composite materials, has recognized the possibility of application of this kind of composite material to future high value-added industries such as electric vehicle frame and material parts for energy storage system. He has achieved a contract for technology transfer contracts worth 2.5 billion won with domestic companies. In recognition of this technology, Next Generation Materials Co. Ltd., which received 3.5 billion won in funding and investment from Korea Technology Finance Corporation, completed construction of a "heterogeneous composite mass production factory" in Chaesin Industrial Complex in Yeongcheon, Gyeongbuk Province on the 30th of April 2019. <기사보기 클릭!>
