1049. Patents (5/5)
Wang Bo learned about this material, and then asked Na Qingyang to contact the design team of the material. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The connection is simple, they graduated from this school, they still keep in touch with the teachers at the time, and there are classmates who stay in the school to work.
After more than an hour, Na Qingyang found him and said, "Boss, I've been contacted, will you go over and talk?" I prepared the video with Professor Fan, who was in charge of the team, and they were very happy to learn that we were interested in their materials. ā
Wang Bo nodded and said, "Yes." ā
The computer video connection was successful, and a middle-aged man with gray hair appeared on the screen.
He obviously heard the introduction of Wang Bo from Na Qingyang's mouth, and said with a smile after introducing himself when they met: "Mr. Wang Bo is really young and promising, I went to search on the Internet just now, and I learned that you are the overseas pride of our Chinese nation, and it is really amazing to be able to build such a town." ā
When Wang Bo heard him say this, he knew that he might not know that he was a graduate of Ocean University of China.
In order to avoid embarrassment, he did not reveal this, and said politely: "I am a layman, just like us Chinese, I can bear hardships and stand hard work, Professor Fan and others are the backbone of the Chinese nation, your scientific research results are really amazing." ā
Professor Fan was also polite, but when he talked about the project of superhydrophobic microporous wire, he still showed a proud look on his face.
He is a professional academic talent, and he is not very good at interpersonal communication, he knows this, so when he talks about this material, he follows the trend and talks eloquently:
"The alloy used in this material is mainly brass, which is somewhat regrettable, but it would be ideal if it could be replaced by an alloy or plastic with a harder and less dense material."
Wang Bo asked, "Then why did you choose copper?" ā
"The use of copper as a material is mainly due to the fact that it is easy to deposit a binary micro-nanostructure on the surface of the copper mesh through a simple displacement reaction, which is essential for superhydrophobicity......
"According to our experimental data, the new material waterproof boat floats more smoothly than other ordinary boats that do not use the new surface technology, and it can remain suspended even if the edge of the material is already below the water level. Moreover, it can also exhibit an amazing load-bearing capacity, because of the peculiarities of the binary micro-nanostructure, even if it is physically damaged, the waterproof boat can also recover its superhydrophobicity......"
Wang Bo and Na Qingyang were stunned, they couldn't continue this kind of topic, they knew nanomaterials, but they didn't understand the principle and specific situation.
Professor Fan talked eloquently, and only later did he notice that the two of them were staring at each other on the screen, so he hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I have this problem, and when I talk about what I'm good at, I will be foolish." ā
Wang Bo said: "You are too polite, we actually like to listen, and it is good to increase our knowledge." ā
Soon he regretted why he was so polite, the old professor was a sincere person, and he was very happy after listening to his words: "Young people are as studious as you are rare, your attitude is very right, live to learn all the time, come, I will continue to introduce ......"
āā¦ā¦ At present, the practical value of this research is still relatively low, and its biggest highlight is that it can digest and absorb basic research and make meaningful applied research, and we are satisfied with this goal. Half an hour later, Professor Fan finally put an end to his popular science activities.
Wang Bo and Na Qingyang applauded one after another, as if they had returned to the days of listening to lectures in their college days.
At the end of the popular science, Wang Bo finally cut to the chase, and Wang Bo said that his plan was to use this material as a base to build a house that floated on the water.
Professor Fan nodded: "This is possible, we have done experiments, it is difficult to apply this material to make ships, but it can be applied to water machinery and equipment, such as setting up the base of marine environmental monitoring instruments, you can also use it to build houses at sea, the air film on the surface of this superhydrophobic material can increase air resistance and fluid resistance, and the base of the house can better resist the impact of sea breeze and waves." ā
Wang Bo asked, "How much will it cost?" Build a 20-square-meter house with a base that weighs about a ton. ā
Professor Fan said: "The carrying weight is not large, but because of the material, the cost is still a bit high, one square meter of coverage may need about 20,000, and 20 square meters is 400,000. ā
Listening to the offer, Wang Bo hesitated, the cost is not only high, it is simply very high, 400,000 yuan can build a decent villa in New Zealand.
No wonder this material has no practical value in shipbuilding, a large cargo ship needs a base volume of at least a few thousand cubic meters, the cost is too great, to build a ship to hundreds of millions!
Professor Fan was obviously aware of this problem, and said helplessly: "No way, superhydrophobic materials are mainly carried out from the preparation of surface micro-nano structures and the treatment of low surface energy substances, and the best alloy materials are based on gold, but who can afford to use them?" ā
"In fact, the use of copper is already the next choice, copper is easy to oxidize and the hardness is not enough, the hull of the ship is almost all steel alloy materials, but the surface of these materials to prepare or form micro and nano structures, the cost will be greater."
As he spoke, he shook his head, clearly pessimistic about the prospects of his research topic.
Na Qingyang, who had been silent on the side, raised his head and asked, "Professor Fan, are you talking about 400,000 yuan or 400,000 New Zealand dollars and 400,000 US dollars?" ā
"Renminbi."
Getting this answer, Wang Bo suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, the exchange between the two was a little misunderstanding, he was used to using New Zealand dollars as a monetary unit, if it was RMB, it was acceptable, converted to more than 80,000 New Zealand dollars, which is not expensive to use as the base of the house.
In this way, even if the main body of the base is added, it is only more than 100,000 New Zealand dollars, and the cost of building fifty floating huts is about five million, which is a bit of a large investment, but he can accept it.
Wang Bo then asked him if he could mass produce, and if he could, the demand on his side would be tens of millions of yuan.
For a scientific research project, the demand for tens of millions of dollars is enough to generate it, Professor Fan was immediately ecstatic, and said: "This is no problem, the patent right is in the hands of our laboratory, and it can be produced as long as it is produced in a joint factory." ā
Hearing this, Na Qingyang gave Wang Bomeng a look and said in a low voice: "Buy this patent and try it." ā
Wang Bo also thought of this, although this material is not of much practical value now, but it really contains infinite power.
