Gyeongsang National University Transfers 'Mold Technology for Carbon Composite Production' to Korea Mold Technology

Application Possibility of Carbon Composite Material Production Technology Using Rapid Heating and Cooling of Molds

The Technology Business Center of the Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation at Gyeongsang National University has signed a technology transfer agreement with Korea Mold Technology.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] The Technology Business Center of the Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation at Gyeongsang National University signed a technology transfer agreement with Hanguk Geumhyeong Technology on the afternoon of the 26th at the Technology Business Center meeting room on the 3rd floor of the Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation building at the Gajwa Campus.

This technology is used in a process that rapidly heats or cools a movable mold and polymerizes monomers to produce carbon composite materials. It is a mold technology that enables mass production of carbon composite materials such as fiber reinforced thermoplastics (FRTP) used in expensive aircraft and automobile parts.

Hanguk Geumhyeong Technology, which received the technology transfer, is a technology-specialized company established by investment from Daesin Jeonggong, a regional leading company, to promote the commercialization of new technologies in the aerospace field. Based on the existing technologies related to agricultural machinery and automobile parts owned by its parent company, it is developing molds for aerospace parts such as lightweight aircraft seats using composite materials.

Recent aircraft and automobile markets are focusing on "lightweighting" for eco-friendliness and fuel efficiency in their technology development. In particular, interest in "carbon composite materials," which are lightweight while maintaining or improving the rigidity of existing materials, is gradually increasing.

Hanguk Geumhyeong Technology expects that through this technology transfer, by developing mold technology for mass production of composite products, it will advance mold technologies related to various product groups in the aerospace and automobile fields and achieve localization in a market that has been mainly dependent on imports.
