Ten years of rapid development in chemical technology – praise for China’s prosperity and strength. This is just a starting point; more participation will make things even more lively. HaiChuan becomes even better with you here; we welcome everyone to join in the forum discussions. The fragrance of rice flowers in August ------------------------------------------- In July 2023, the thousand-ton pilot plant for electronic-grade phenolic epoxy resin at the Resins Department of Baling Petrochemical Company was successfully commissioned for the first time. Through process tracking and process optimization, the plant is now operating stably with qualified product quality. After the successful commissioning of the pilot plant for electronic-grade phenolic epoxy resins, Baling Petrochemical established a \"one-stop\" production and sales framework for o-cresol phenol resin, phenol phenol resin, DCPD (dicyclopentadiene)–phenol resin, and phenol-biphenyl epoxy resin. Among them, phenol-biphenyl epoxy resins are primarily used in epoxy molding compounds and 5G copper-clad laminates; before domestic production became possible, they were entirely imported. With the development of 5G communications and the increasing commercial demand, the production of this device represents a milestone in the localization of epoxy resins. It is understood that electronic-grade phenolic epoxy resins possess excellent high heat resistance, corrosion resistance, electrical insulation properties, and high adhesion and sealing capabilities, and are widely used in fields such as mechatronics, aerospace, transportation, and construction. In recent years, Baling Petrochemical has focused its efforts on scientific and technological innovation. In response to the demand for epoxy resins in the electronics industry, it has developed a series of electronic-grade phenolic epoxy resins, striving to overcome the key technical challenges related to resin matrix materials used in fields such as electronics and communication, as well as carbon fiber composites. As the electronics industry’s demand for phenolic epoxy resins continues to rise, and given the limited capacity of its existing testing facilities, the company upgraded its equipment to create a pilot-scale production plant capable of producing phenolic epoxy resins in quantities of up to a thousand tons per year, thereby enabling it to manufacture various types of electronic-grade phenolic epoxy resins.
