This new materials enterprise in Pudong became popular at an important exhibition, producing a "cotton blanket" that can withstand high temperatures up to 1400 degrees Celsius
On July 7th, on the last day of the SAMPE China 2023 Conference and the 18th International Composite Materials Exhibition, among more than 300 domestic and foreign exhibitors at the Beijing China International Exhibition Center, a corporate booth from Pudong was exceptionally popular.
Similar to ordinary cotton thread, but intact in a flame at 1200 ℃; It looks like an ordinary cotton blanket, with one side exposed to a high temperature of 1400 ℃, while the other side can be directly touched by hand... The core secret of this "miracle" lies in the key material - alumina continuous fiber, and the manufacturer is Shanghai Rongrong New Materials Technology Co., Ltd., a new materials enterprise in Pudong.
Rongrong New Materials settled in Pudong in 2019, focusing on the research and production of high-temperature resistant alumina continuous fibers. In 2022, it will become the third enterprise in the world and the first in China to have the capacity to produce continuous alumina fibers, undertaking strategic emerging industry projects in Shanghai. This exhibition also represents Shanghai manufacturing enterprises and participates in international industry exchanges.
"Focusing on science and technology innovation and rooted in Shanghai, our team all carries the same dream - domestic technology self-reliance and self-improvement," said Qian Bei, Vice President of the company. It is reported that alumina fiber is internationally recognized as a new generation of main material for high-temperature resistant hot end construction, widely used in aerospace, metallurgy and chemical industries, and has important strategic significance for the improvement of China's national defense equipment and major economic industries.

Rongrong New Materials fully utilizes the advantages of Shanghai's business environment and leverages technological innovation to support and lead the company's sustainable development. Its output growth rate is "fast", results output is "excellent", and innovation entities are "strong". Its high-quality development path is a microcosm of Shanghai's accelerated improvement of industrial infrastructure and modernization level.
Qian Bei stated that the company will complete the industrial promotion and application of alumina fibers within the next three to five years, striving to form a new material industry scale of billions of yuan, and provide high-strength and high-temperature resistant composite materials and composite shaped structural components for the upgrading and replacement of high-end equipment in China.
On that day, the exhibition booth attracted numerous experts, scholars, and industry colleagues to exchange ideas and discuss cutting-edge technologies and future development trends in the industry. During the three-day exhibition, the number of visitors reached over 5000, and the transaction volume is expected to exceed 35 million. Over a hundred customers expressed their intention to cooperate on site, covering multiple well-known top enterprises in the industry. Rongrong New Materials also won the "Innovative Materials" award of the "SAMPE China Composite Product Innovation Award" in 2023, thanks to its "Key Technology and Industrialization of High Temperature Resistant Domestic Alumina Continuous Fiber with a Capacity of 100 Tons" project.
