Guangdong Sanqiyi Technology establishes a collaborative industry-academia-research system to accelerate the commercialization of technological innovations.
2025-10-24
To tackle the critical challenge of "bottlenecking" high-end materials, Guangdong Yisanqi Technology recently established a tripartite technology collaboration with the School of Chemical Engineering at South China University of Technology and BASF Group of Germany. The partnership will focus on optimizing bio-based material formulations and developing intelligent production processes.
The collaboration will revolve around three key areas: First, leveraging the company’s existing patented technologies, the team will jointly develop a polyurethane prepolymer containing over 70% bio-based content in collaboration with the university, aiming to reduce raw material costs by 15%. Second, BASF’s reactive catalyst technology will be integrated to enhance the curing speed and mechanical properties of 3D-printing materials. Finally, the two partners will co-create an advanced smart R&D platform that uses big data analytics to accelerate formulation iterations, cutting the typical R&D cycle from 18 months down to just 8 months.
This collaboration is no coincidence—since 2024, the company has established a seamless "patent-R&D-production" synergy mechanism. In 2025, the company licensed its patented "bio-based waterborne polyurethane," which has already entered joint pilot production with flexible electronics firms. This innovative material boasts a self-healing efficiency of up to 95% and a tensile strength exceeding 30 MPa, paving the way for its upcoming large-scale application in smart wearable devices. By fostering industry-academia-research collaboration, the company is now poised to make a transformative leap—from "technology follower" to "standard setter."
