Material Empire

"Mr. Nim, hello, it's nice to meet you. ＠ dǐng ＠ ǎn ＠ Xiao ＠ said, ¤.2√↖"

Qin Hai stood up with a smile and shook hands with Nim, let him sit down on the sofa, then looked at him silently, waiting for him to speak.

"Mr. Qin, if you are not busy, I hope I can introduce you to my research, if you are interested ..." Nim rubbed his hands and said indifferently. He heard of Qin Hai's generosity and made a special trip to fate. He had never dealt with the Chinese before and did not know the habits of the Chinese, so he was quite nervous.

Qin Hai laughed: "Mr. Nim, rest assured, we are interested in all valuable research."

"That's great," Nim responded cheerfully. "My research direction is magnetic polymer microspheres. First of all, please allow me to introduce you to this amazing new magnetic material ..."

Qin Hai politely interrupted his opening remarks, saying: "I'm afraid this is not necessary. If I'm not mistaken, what you said is based on the microencapsulation method, which combines organic polymers with magnetic inorganic substances to form New materials, which are magnetically responsive and have good workability. "

"Uh ..." Nim stunned. The technology of magnetic polymer microspheres is very new and eccentric in the material circle. I am afraid that people in this direction in the world can count them with one slap. Some scholars who have been in contact with this field think that this technology can't produce any interesting results, so this field is currently shrinking.

In Nimes, few people in the United States even know about magnetic polymer microspheres. China's technological level is far behind that of China in the United States. I am afraid that no one has even heard of this concept. He had planned to spend some time explaining the characteristics of this material to Qin Hai, and it would be better to add some flicker to make Qin Hai dizzy. In order to induce Qin Hai to provide some funding for this research.

But he never thought about it, he just said this concept, Qin Hai has described the characteristics of this technology clearly, how does this make him open his mouth?

"Mr. Qin has heard of this technology?" Nim asked stupidly.

Qin Hai said lightly: "I said that the Daqin Group is a professional material industry group, everything related to materials. We are concerned, and naturally also include magnetic polymer microspheres. However, we have not yet carried out this aspect Research, so I'm interested to hear your introduction to this technology. "

"Since Mr. Qin has paid attention to this material, do you think the research of this material is promising?" Nim asked honestly, because his own research was considered to have no future direction in the United States, so it was gone. Sources of funds. If Qin Hai also thinks that this technology is worthless, then he really can only change his career.

Qin Hai said: "The technology of magnetic polymer microspheres has not yet been successfully applied. So I cannot say clearly whether it has a future. However, our group has a certain interest in various new technologies. Mr Nimes can make some achievements in this regard and obtain related patents, and we are still willing to pay some price for it. "

"No, no, Mr. Qin, I believe this technology must be promising. I have considered that magnetic polymer microspheres have good processability. Polymer modification methods can be used to form some on their surfaces. Specific polar functional groups. This makes it have some special properties. If my vision is successful, this material will be able to be used in biomedicine, optical communication and ... "

At this point, Nim took a slight dip, hesitating whether the words that followed were appropriate.

"Mr. Nim, if you want to be a partner with us, then there should be nothing to say between us," Qin Hai warned.

"Okay ... Actually. The most important use of this material is as a absorbing material. I say this, Mr. Qin should be able to understand what it means?" Nim whispered.

The role of the absorbing material is to absorb the microwave emitted by the radar, so that the radar cannot detect the target object. The main application direction of absorbing materials is the military field. Including stealth aircraft, stealth ships, and so on, all achieve a stealth effect on radar by coating a layer of absorbing material on the surface. The traditional wave absorbing material is mainly inorganic ferrite. This kind of material is only used for ships. However, there is a defect of excessive density in stealth aircraft.

Magnetic polymer microspheres have the characteristics of polymer materials, and their density is far less than that of ferrite materials. After being modified, they can also have wide bands and high absorption rates. They are ideal for stealth aircraft. Coating.

Nimes' research was first funded by a company that provided stealth materials for the military, and its results are ready to be applied to the newly developed stealth fighters by the United States. Unexpectedly, in the military tender, this company that funded Nimes' research was eliminated by other companies, and the research of this very promising organic magnetic material had to be abandoned halfway. Nim has devoted his efforts in this direction for several years. He had already seen the dawn, but was unable to continue because of such a commercial reason, which made him very upset.

He has written to the military explaining the good characteristics of the materials he is studying, hoping that the military will pay attention to this new type of material and give him the funds needed to complete the institute. It is a pity that several letters were sent to his letter, and in the end they were all sinking into the sea without any reply. At an accidental opportunity, he heard people inside the military revealed that the military had already reached a conclusion on the choice of stealth aircraft's absorbing material. The winning unit was a company with great lobbying ability. The performance of the provided absorbing material is far inferior to the material Nim is studying, but it cannot stand someone else ...

Naturally, Nim said inconveniently to Qin Haiming, after all, the family ugliness must not be flaunted. However, in order for Qin Hai to become interested in this material, he must come up with some fierce materials. He knows that China has always been a country with an interest in modernizing its national defense. Although China does not currently have a stealth aircraft, related scientific research must have been carried out. He pointed out that magnetic polymer microspheres can be an excellent absorbing material, and he hoped that Qin Hai would be interested in this material.

"Are you sure it can be used as an absorber?" Qin Hai asked calmly. He remembered that 70 institutes were researching stealth aircraft, and the chief engineer Gu Qinyuan he knew was engaged in absorbing materials. If Nim's materials can really be used as absorbing materials, then this technology will be transferred to 70 in the future. A good choice. Of course, he would not tell Nimes such an idea.

"I'm sure," Nim said. "We have done experiments in the past to prove that this material has good absorbing properties and is superior to ferrite materials. What I am doing now is to improve its bandwidth, and Solve the problem of its preparation process. "

"If so, it has meaning." Qin Hai said something interesting, but his tone was still light and did not show the eager attitude as Nim hoped, "How much money do you need to complete your Research work? "

"$ 1.5 million," Nim replied without hesitation. He originally intended to report a higher number, but after hearing Qin Hai's characteristics of magnetic polymer microspheres, he dismissed the idea of ​​asking for a lot of prices and chose a more reliable quota.

"So, what can I get?" Qin Hai asked Nimes's offer and asked another question.

"You can obtain patents for the application of magnetic polymer microspheres, including patents for industrial preparation processes, which means that only you in the world can produce this material." Nimes said.

"If it can't find an application field, what use is there even if I have a patent and preparation process?" Qin Hai frowned.

"I think ... it should be useful." Nim wailed, trying to explain.

Qin Hai looked at the poor scholar and smiled slightly. The technology of magnetic polymer microspheres has just begun in this era. Due to the influence of technological level, its practical application does have some difficulties. However, in a few years, this technology will be gradually improved, and there will be a large number of applications by then. Nim can foresee this from a technical point of view, but cannot prove it. Qin Hai, as a person with advanced vision ~ www.readwn.com ~ has no doubt about this.

"So, we are willing to fund this technology." Qin Hai no longer embarrassed Nim, he said, "Given that we don't see the prospect of this technology, I can't provide you with so much money for the time being .I can only provide US $ 500,000 as the first phase of funding, and I will add additional funds after I see valuable phased results. Mr. Nim, do you think this works? "

"Exactly," Nim replied, "I guarantee that you will see valuable results after investing $ 500,000."

"A half a million dollars is also a lot of money. I hope we can monitor the use of funds. Mr. Nim wouldn't mind?" Qin Hai said again.

"You mean I need to explain to you in detail the use of funds?" Nimes asked.

Qin Hai shook his head and said, "This is not enough. We need to send someone to participate in your research to make sure that these funds are used in the right place, and that the technology we end up with is indeed real technology."

"I don't think it's difficult," Nim said bitterly. (To be continued ...)
