RnT Ceramics Acquires Mobility Heat Dissipation Substrate Company

Test for Application by Korea's No.1 Complete Vehicle and Auto Parts Manufacturer
Targeting Expansion of Power Semiconductor Heat Dissipation Substrate Market for Electric Vehicles

[Asia Economy Reporter Hyungsoo Park] RNT Technology announced on the 14th that its subsidiary RNT Ceramics has acquired shares in SMTPC.

SMTPC is a company that has secured technology and production capabilities for power semiconductor heat dissipation substrates for mobility. RNT Ceramics has acquired all patents, manufacturing processes, and production lines related to the heat dissipation substrates, including the specialized personnel who developed the technology.

Power semiconductor heat dissipation substrates for mobility are necessary for devices that convert and control power such as converters, inverters, and powertrains. They are key components that dissipate heat, which causes performance degradation and shortened lifespan.

RNT Ceramics, which holds structural and process patents, is conducting tests on power semiconductor heat dissipation substrates with domestic automakers and automotive parts companies. In process evaluations and reliability assessments conducted on production lines of mass-produced products by automotive parts companies, the product showed superior performance and reliability in maintaining characteristics in terms of ease of assembly for customers compared to existing competitors, heat dissipation, and thermal shock. After continuous testing and verification, once the review for product application is completed, it will be applied to new electric vehicle models launching from 2025.

An RNT Technology official said, "Based on ceramic materials and circuit board technology, we plan to expand into both the domestic and overseas electric vehicle markets."

The ceramic chip fuse REP, produced by RNT Technology for preventing secondary battery fires, is expected to achieve significant sales growth. Following its registration as a parts supplier to a global secondary battery company last year, it is preparing for on-site inspections for applying REP to products of a domestic home appliance company in the second half of this year. An RNT Technology official stated, "REP is entering the eco-friendly e-mobility market from laptops and mobile devices," adding, "It will be one of the pillars of the company's growth after 2023."
