“In the early stages of business, we were looking for the necessary core technology, but the technology transfer fee was astronomical. While looking for several papers for technology development
I found that Professor Taeyoung Kim of Gachon University possessed a technology similar to the one we are looking for. He also had a patent. I went to see Professor Kim and hung up on it,” said KB Element of CEO, Bae Kyung-jeong
When the technology was applied to manufacturing, it ran into a limit to its ability to mass-produce. This limitation became the motivation for the technology development of KB Element and developed. The next field where graphene has potential for commercialization is electric vehicles
If graphene replaces the separator of a secondary battery, the lifespan becomes much longer and the risk of explosion disappears. Globally, it is making aggressive investments in research and development for secondary battery separators
KB Element, a Korean non-oxidized graphene manufacturer, which is leading the development and commercialization of new materials using graphene, has shown rapid growth since its establishment and has won consecutive orders from large companies such as Samsung Display and LG Display in 2020, and is aiming for an IPO in 2023.
In particular, KB Element is concentrating on strengthening its technological capabilities in new materials such as high-efficiency heat dissipation materials and super capacitors, which are core materials for the future automobile industry.
Since the beginning of this year, it has been producing results such as signing an MOU with Hyundai and Kia's primary suppliers in the field of electric (hydrogen) automobiles and launching prototypes
The CEO of KB Element, Bae Kyung-jeong said, "We will not only create social value through our efforts for innovative growth, but also show our growth as a global material company." Meanwhile, KB Element recevied the 2022 Korea Innovation Award
