Notice of Participation in the 2nd Advanced Ceramics Exhibition

Shinko Metallico has all the thermal spraying processes.

Various industrial machines and systems need to be designed to withstand extremely harsh environments and conditions. In this sense, "thermal spraying" is an indispensable surface modification technology for product performance. Thermal spraying technology can be categorized into two types: one aimed at protecting substrates such as steel structures against corrosion and environmental barriers for chemical equipment, and the other focused on functional thermal spraying for wear resistance, thermal insulation, and electrical insulation in various industrial fields. Thermal spraying is a surface modification technology that involves melting and spraying materials such as metals, ceramics, and cermets using various heat sources to form functional coatings on the substrate surface. 【Features】 - Capable of thermal spraying on a wide range of substrates with a broad selection of spraying materials. - Does not affect the heat of the substrate. - No dimensional limitations on the substrate. - Processing is possible only in the required areas. - On-site construction is possible.

[Speaker] Hiroaki Izuma, Advisor, Business Creation Division, Tohoku Electric Power Co., Inc. Director, Osaka University Foresight Co., Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] Renewable energy (solar power, wind power) is unstable, so Short-term Energy Storage (SDES) is necessary. The main SDES is lithium-ion batteries, which can store energy for several hours, but as the ratio of renewable energy is expected to reach about 50% in the future, Long-term Energy Storage (LDES) will be required. LDES can store energy from 10 hours to several months. The technological classifications of LDES include electrochemical, mechanical, thermal, and chemical methods. In this lecture, we will explain the characteristics of each LDES method, promising overseas startups, and the progress of social implementation, providing insights into new business opportunities. [Lecture Items] 1. Background for the need for LDES 2. Characteristics of the four technological methods 3.
