"Cooperating with Allightec is in line with our development strategy and
is in all our shareholders' interests," said Henan Billions, "In the
long run, it will help to boost our business development and enhance our core
cooperativeness. In addition, it also brings us the potential for profit
growth."
Founded in 2012 and based in Taichung, Taiwan, Allightec has advanced graphene
powder mass production techniques. Besides graphene powder, its main products
include suspended graphene, graphene film, etc.
The founder of Allightec, Dr. Gong Fei, former vice-president of Everlight
Electronics., Ltd., began to develop graphene materials and related application
technologies in 2013. So far, he has developed more than 200 kinds of graphene
products and has developed over 50 application technologies, totally deserving
the befitting title of "Father of Worldwide Graphene Application".
According to CCM, cooperation between Henan
Billions and Allightec will be conducive to Henan Billions' R&D in
diversified and high-end TiO2 products, which will improve the company's market
shares and brand influence. Currently, Henan Billions' main products are TiO2
applied in fields of coatings and plastics.
At present, the graphene industry is not yet mature and the entry threshold for
the graphene industry is relative low in China. Entering the industry at this
point of time, Henan Billions is expected to reap high profits from the
industry following the industrialisation of its graphene business in the
future.
Graphene, an important new material which has uses in smart phones, new
displays, lithium ion batteries and solar power system, is believed to have
bright prospects in the electronic and information industry.
According to the 2015 Report on the Global Graphene Industry released by the
China Innovation Alliance of the Graphene Industry, the global market value of
graphene was expected to reach USD149 million by 2020 and compound annual
growth rate was forecast to hit 44% sometime between 2014 and 2020.
