On May 30, the 2023 Zhongguancun Forum held a special conference on major scientific and technological achievements in Beijing. "30 micron flexible foldable glass " was released as a major achievement. Zhang Shaobo, deputy general manager of China Building Material Kaisheng Science and Technology Co., Ltd., introduced the research on flexible foldable glass with a thickness of 30 microns at the press conference.
Zhang Shaobo said that the flexible foldable glass with a thickness of 30 microns is only a quarter of the thickness of A4 paper, and the bending radius is less than 0.5 mm. It is used on the folding screen mobile phone, basically achieving a perfect fit, which can make the screen of the mobile phone thinner and thinner, and the overall design of the mobile phone lighter. At present, the product has successfully exceeded 1 million times in the bending life test, while the qualified standard in the industry is only 200000 times.
In the process of scientific research, the team has built the world's leading "high strength glass-extremely thin-high precision processing-flexible module fitting" full process, the national production of a complete industrial chain, from the source to ensure the safety of China's new display industry chain supply chain.
At present, the product has passed the audit and verification of well-known domestic terminal enterprises, and has begun to be delivered in batches. Domestic mobile phones using the product will soon appear on the market. With the continuous optimization of production line, ultra-thin flexible foldable glass is expected to expand and apply in flexible vehicle display screen, intelligent broadband, aerospace and other fields in the future.
