Fujian Enterprises Get National Patent "Plant Fiber + Graphene" Leveraging Textile Transformation

"The pace of innovation can not stop." On the 7 day, Yan Zhanggen, chairman of the board of directors of Fujian Yongchun businessmen and Fujian Xiang Ye group, returned home, saying that the "graphene composite fiber yarns and their preparation methods and Applications" have been patented by the state, and have also filled the gap in the international market.

Yan Zhanggen was born in a peasant family in Yongchun mountain village of Fujian in 1956. He went to settle in Hong Kong in 1982. In 1984, he founded his ronghua cloth shop with his wife, Chen Li Chun. After years of hard work and accumulation, they began investing in real estate, mining, high-tech and financial industries in the mainland in 1989. The couple, who are enthusiastic about public welfare, have also actively donated funds to study and set up foundations, which have been recognized by the society.

13 years ago, Yan Zhanggen and his wife, who started from traditional industries, put their eyes on green sustainable agricultural products. After many years of research and practice, in 2018, the "bio enzyme extraction of plant fiber technology" including four practical patent certificates, including "ultrasonic assisted bleaching equipment", "ultrasonic water treatment device", "ultrasonic assisted enzyme enzyme pulping equipment" and "comprehensive utilization equipment for crop straw", were listed as the key practical technology of environmental protection in the country. As the winner of the above patent, Chen Lichun often sighs that all these are hard won.

Chen Lichun introduced that biological enzyme extraction of plant fiber technology has broken through the technical bottleneck of papermaking traditional technology, "no alkali and no pulp", turning cornstalk, straw, wheat straw, sorghum stalk and other crop straw into treasure, making paper for daily use and cultural paper, which not only solved the problem of large annual crop stalks, but also increased the income of farmers, increased the efficiency of paper making enterprises, and increased taxes by the government.

The technology of "graphene composite fiber yarns and their preparation and application" is based on the technology of "enzyme extraction of plant fiber" and combined with high technology materials graphene. The two technologies come down in one continuous line, condensing the efforts of Yan Zhanggen and Chen Lichun for more than 10 years, and practicing the green development concept of "green water, green hills, and Jinshan Yinshan".

Yan Zhanggen, who is good at thinking and inventions, has been over the world for a long time. But he still studies late at night and constantly improves himself. He has been studying how to create more wealth for his society through his invention. As a good wife, Chen Lichun has been supporting her husband's invention career silently. The two husband and wife cooperate with each other in a tacit understanding.

"After the successful development of bio pulping technology, I was thinking about what technology could be used in addition to paper making." Yan Zhanggen told reporters that China is the largest importer of cotton in the world, and Quanzhou is a big market of China's private economy, especially the textile industry. To this end, he broke through the "plant fiber + graphene", and ultimately developed a new textile technology, and the technology will produce a warm, antibacterial, radiation protection and accelerate the effectiveness of blood circulation and other functional textile fabrics.

Expert evaluation said that the promotion of the technology not only effectively cracked the dependence of Chinese textiles on cotton planting and imported cotton, but also saved foreign exchange. It could also reduce the planting area of cotton in China and improve the land use efficiency.

Coincidentally, the global fiber fiber production leader group recently announced that it will invest $200 million to develop related textile cellulose fibers. "They just want to invest, and Quanzhou enterprises have mastered core projects." The industry pointed out that the core technology of Fujian's Xiang Ye group, which is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, has basically matured. The textile made of new materials of graphene and plant fiber has the conditions of landing production, and will bring great changes to the trillions of textile industry.
