What exactly do the research institutes of various chemical companies study? Is it product development, technology introduction, or technological upgrading? Technical upgrade? Is it still a large frame?
Developing new products, introducing new research technologies, technological upgrades, product application research, and so on.

As the saying goes: learn*, introduce, copy, and then innovate – standing on the shoulders of giants….
Is it also a department responsible for technical development and transformation?
This is a feature that can’t be removed to preserve face, so we won’t discuss it here
For domestic enterprises (those that are not Sino-foreign joint ventures or foreign-funded enterprises), there is only a general framework in the initial stage, while in the later stages, technology introduction and technological upgrading take place (product development is left to universities).
The key issue is that universities invest little in research and development; graduates from a dozen or twenty previous batches are still working on graduation projects based on the same topics as before.
It should also be the department in charge of managing a company’s technological research and development, including: project initiation, allocation of funds, research and development plans, inspection and evaluation, application submission and award recognition, and so on. There is also a coordination department for joint research with external research institutions and universities.
Universities lack a clear purpose in research and development; their focus is mainly on principles, whereas the purpose of their own research institutes is practical application
Your summary is good; it’s similar to the technology departments in companies in the past
Therefore, it is necessary to combine industry and academia, as well as large-scale projects; the joint research project on the heated crude oil pipeline project in Alaska, United States, is an excellent example of this.
