R&D Center
We create new value with the belief that good materials can make the world a better place
Through development of new materials that can greatly contribute to the world, we work toward becoming a true global leader. While actively coping with technical revolution, we expand investment for more efficient R&D. We have local research bases dedicated for specific purposes (Film Material Research Center, Fiber Material Research Center and Advanced Material Research Center) to strengthen our research research capability and boost competitiveness through partnership with related institutions and user network.
R&D Mission
Strengthening the competitiveness of business
Process and quality improvement of film, spunbond nonwovens, composite materials and other products and business expansion through product diversification are part of our continued innovation efforts to strengthen our position as a market leader.
Development of future growth engine
In line with our Vision 2030, we strive to find long-term growth engine and strengthen research capability for our future growth.
Boosting open innovation
Through collaboration with Toray Group and strong relationship with related institutes in Korea and users, we will generate substantial synergy in R&D.
About R&D Center
Film Materials Research 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.
Fiber Materials Research Center
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.
Advanced Materials Research Center
Development of foundation / prior technology
It is the research center dedicated for long-term research and development of next-generation technology, member and material in the fields of display, semiconductor, automotive, energy and environment. In collaboration with Film Material Research Center and Fiber Material Research Center, we take research into a next level for the purpose of commercial application after prior R&D.
