[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Seoyoon] Doosan Enerbility announced on the 22nd that it will accelerate its extreme materials business, leveraging the establishment of the 'Extreme Materials Demonstration Research Complex' being promoted in Changwon, Gyeongnam.


The demonstration research complex, promoted by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the Korea Institute of Materials Science, will be established on a 78,080㎡ site of the former Army University in Jinhae-gu, Changwon City, from next year until 2028.


Extreme materials refer to materials that withstand specific extreme environments such as ultra-high temperature, ultra-low temperature, pressure, impact, radiation, and corrosion. Doosan Enerbility is expanding the use of extreme materials in key businesses such as gas turbines (ultra-high temperature, oxidation, corrosion), SMR (radiation, impact), hydrogen (ultra-low temperature, impact), and 3D printing (strength, oxidation, corrosion).


Song Yongjin, Vice President of Strategy and Innovation at Doosan Enerbility, said, "We welcome the establishment of Korea's first extreme materials R&D and demonstration infrastructure, promoted by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the Korea Institute of Materials Science, with support from local governments such as Gyeongsangnam-do and Changwon City." He added, "Going forward, an organic industry-academia-research cooperation cluster will be formed centered on the Extreme Materials Demonstration Research Complex, which will not only verify the results of technology development but also further revitalize the extreme materials industry."



Meanwhile, Doosan Enerbility participated in 'KIMS TECHFAIR 2022,' held over two days from the 21st at the Changwon Convention Center, introducing the status and plans of its extreme materials business. Hosted by the Korea Institute of Materials Science, KIMS TECHFAIR is an event that shares the latest trends in materials technology.
