About R&D Center
Base Film
We develop and provide a wide range of the best quality functional products - ultra fine film, thick film and other films of different thicknesses through process technology and in-line coating. Clear and defect-free LCD BLU compatible with other films, and materials for OLED display and next-generation display are currently under development.
IT Materials
We have the most advanced sputtering, metalizing, surface treatment, coating and lamination technologies. And these high technologies are used to make a great variety of products including members for display and semiconductor, films for process and pressure sensitive adhesive for electronic applications.
Polymer / Spunbond Nonwovens / Filter Materials
We are conducting research for development of new polymer materials and process technologies in advanced display materials and next-generation energy component materials.
Based on polyester resin and fiber manufacturing technology, we are developing fiber materials for industrial applications and clothing, and seeking to expand our capacity to include environment-friendly materials.
Also, based on the spunbond nonwoven technology, we are developing high-value-added nonwoven materials for sanitary goods and filters, and striving to be the first in Korea to develop filter technologies related to reverse osmosis membranes, antifouling reverse osmosis membranes, seawater desalination reverse osmosis membranes, microfiltration membranes and water treatment.
Development of foundation / prior technology
It is a mid- to long-term research base that develops next-generation technologies, components and materials in the display, semiconductor, automobile, and energy and environment sectors. After prior research and development, we are conducting in-depth research and commercialization in collaboration with other research teams.
