"Yes, Chief Lin, you just saw that if you take advantage of the price advantage of nuclear fusion power generation in the future, hydrogen fuel cells may really be able to take advantage of this advantage."
"Even electronic devices such as mobile phones and computers are also likely to use hydrogen fuel cells, as long as the charger is made into a way of electrolyzing water to generate hydrogen, there is a complete opportunity."
Looking at the worries of the two, Lin Xiao asked suspiciously: "But aren't hydrogen fuel cells quite expensive? Why are you worried?"
Li Cai said: "According to the information obtained by our company, Panasonic Group has made great improvements in the performance and cost of proton exchange membranes. In the future, their hydrogen fuel cells will also be threaten us."
Kang Zheng also nodded, and said: "Yes, our company has also received this news, so Panasonic Group can reach a cooperation with the US Department of Energy, and the US Department of Energy will also promote hydrogen fuel cells. This may be their response to our controllable nuclear fusion action."
"That's it."
Lin Xiao nodded, and touched his chin with one hand.
Panasonic Group has come up with a low-cost high-performance proton exchange membrane?
He, who was also studying proton exchange membranes, suddenly became interested in it.
Maybe it can be used as a reference?
Of course, he was thinking about this matter in his heart, but he hadn't forgotten that there were still two people waiting for his response.
When there are only lithium-ion batteries, this hydrogen fuel cell does seem to be full of threats, but in the face of all-solid-state lithium batteries, or the proton battery he plans, the advantages of hydrogen fuel cells disappear.
So he didn't have any worries about the menacing hydrogen fuel cell, what's more, this menacing attack was obviously created by the other party.
Then he waved his hand and said: "Your worries are completely unnecessary. The advantages of this hydrogen fuel cell based on the popularity of controllable nuclear fusion power generation still cannot cover up its essential flaws after all."
"what do you mean?"
When the two of them heard what Lin Xiao said, their eyes lit up.
Dear Chief Lin has said so, does it mean that there is already a solution?
Lin Xiao said: "The essential defect lies in the energy that can be stored. Although hydrogen fuel cells have a high mass energy density, there are still relatively high defects in terms of volumetric energy density."
Both of them nodded and agreed with Lin Xiao's statement, but soon Li Cai said: "But there is another problem that although the volume energy density of hydrogen fuel cells is relatively small, the lithium batteries we use If you add various other protective equipment, it will not have an advantage in terms of size."
"In this way, if the energy density of hydrogen fuel cells can be improved to a certain extent, then both ternary lithium and lithium iron phosphate will completely lose their advantages."
Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "I don't mean ternary lithium battery or lithium iron phosphate battery, but another battery with higher energy density."
The eyes of the two suddenly lit up, and Qiqi said: "Could it be that the battery technology you are researching recently is this kind of battery with higher energy density?"
Hearing what the two said, Lin Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and then asked suspiciously: "How do you know that I am researching battery technology recently?"
Although he didn't deliberately conceal it, he also didn't deliberately make it public. Where did these two people get the news?
Both of them had awkward smiles on their faces, and then Li Cai explained: "Well, Chief Lin, you may not know that the outside world is very interested in your research project...or in other words, they are very concerned about it. "
"Indeed." Kang Zheng also nodded, and said, "Now in the mouths of those of us, it is said that no matter what technology you study, you will definitely be able to achieve it, or you will achieve a major breakthrough in this field."
Lin Xiao frowned and said, "So the news about what technology I'm researching spread out?"
"Uh, it's not too widely spread, it's mainly spread in some big companies, and the Japanese Panasonic Group probably already knows the news. They are now promoting hydrogen fuel cells, and they probably want to take advantage of you. When the research comes out, seize the market first.”
"Well, those of us are also trying our best to control the spread of news, and now many companies have begun to speculate in stocks in the battery industry."
Hearing the news from the two people, Lin Xiao couldn't help feeling helpless.
I really didn't expect that it has come to this point now, it's just that he just started to study some technology, which can attract so much attention.
But this is also one of the basic principles of social operation, just like a political leader visiting a place or a company at random, in the eyes of others, it represents another meaning.
Now, to put it modestly, he can also be called a weathervane figure in the scientific world. To put it mildly, he is one of the leaders in the scientific world, and it is normal to have such influence.
He shook his head slightly, then looked at the big leaders of the two big companies in front of him again, and said with a half-smile, "So, your real intention is probably not just to ask me how to deal with this situation. Panasonic Group’s hydrogen fuel cell, right?”
Neither Li Cai nor Kang Zheng smiled politely, and then they glanced at each other, showing a sense of competition, and said to Lin Xiao again: "Yes, we are also here for the battery technology you are researching. .”
"Your ideas are good, and it's also a coincidence. If I develop a new battery technology, it will belong to me completely from the patent right, and I will definitely not have time to produce or operate it at that time, so it must be We need to find a company to cooperate with.”
"The two companies are also the leading battery companies in our world, so if I cooperate with you, it will definitely be of great benefit to me."
At this point, Lin Xiao spread his hands, "But now the problem has arisen. Now you have two people and two companies. How can I cooperate with you?"
Kang Zheng, the president of Ningde Times, immediately said: "Chief Lin, Ningde Times is still the largest in terms of the size of the world's battery market, so if you cooperate with us at that time, it will definitely benefit you the most."
Li Cai from BYD said: "Although our battery market share is not as high as Mr. Kang's company, our company is willing to allocate more funds in the future to improve the power environment for poor areas in our country, just like Lin As you said just now, chief, if we want people all over the country to enjoy the energy dividends of nuclear fusion, we must first allow people across the country to have access to electricity."
Hearing the conditions given by Li Cai, Kang Zheng frowned. He didn't expect that Li Cai would think of starting with charity. However, he should have thought of those things he talked to Lin Xiao just now.
However, regarding the conditions given by these two people, Lin Xiao just smiled and said: "Okay, I won't make a decision yet, but in the future, I will give the conditions based on the actual performance of the two companies." You score, and in the end, we will see which of your two companies has the highest score, and I will cooperate with whoever I develop the technology."
The two were stunned for a moment, but they didn't expect Lin Xiao to give such a condition.
As for the actual performance, it probably refers to the investment in charity. In simple terms, it means letting their two companies spend money.
But that's okay, it's a fair duel.
Although the Ningde era has a higher market value than BYD, but BYD is larger than the Ningde era in terms of volume, so if the two really want to compare their investment in this charity, they are completely evenly matched.
"Okay, I'll follow Chief Lin's arrangement." Kang Zhengzheng nodded.
Li Cai also agreed.
"Well, if both of you agree, then it will be easy." Lin Xiao said with a smile: "Of course, the two of you don't have to be between the two of you in the end. If both of you can't satisfy me If not, then I will definitely not choose you, we still have quite a lot of domestic companies in the battery industry."
Hearing what Lin Xiao said, both of them nodded immediately, "Okay, I promise you won't disappoint Chief Lin."
"Ah."
Lin Xiao nodded and said no more.
And Li Cai and Kang Zheng didn't stay any longer and left here.
Seeing these two people leave, Lin Xiao can already guess how the two companies will compete in order to "seize" those impoverished areas, especially those areas that have not yet been connected to electricity.
For these areas that do not yet have access to electricity, the main reason is that the living areas are too remote, the construction is relatively difficult, or the cost of funds is relatively high. Of course, in the end, it is still a matter of money.
I just hope that these two deep-pocketed companies can roll up directly.
If the two companies can meet his requirements in the end, he can also cooperate with the two companies. Anyway, the battery technology he is currently researching is not just one, but two.
No longer thinking about it, he turned his gaze out of the window, Panasonic Group, and the US Department of Energy?
"This is probably the last dying struggle in the face of nuclear fusion."
And it doesn't seem to be able to struggle to what extent.
The corner of the mouth curled up, everyone was dying, this time is a good time to beat the dog in the water.
As the saying goes, it is advisable to chase the poor with the remaining courage, not to be famous and learn to be the overlord.
Especially in Japan.
This small island country has three pillar industries, automobiles, animation, semiconductors, and Sesser — as we all know, there are four of the three major industries.
In recent years, their auto industry has declined under the impact of new energy vehicles, and the semiconductor industry has also become worse under the rise of the semiconductor industry in neighboring countries, and the economy has begun to show a decline.
If they are really allowed to develop this hydrogen fuel cell, then maybe their automobile industry will live a second life driven by hydrogen fuel cells.
For this kind of thing, it is obviously unacceptable.
So what Lin Xiao has to do is to completely suppress their momentum.
"Okay, it's time to continue my research."
Thinking in his heart, Lin Xiao got up and went to his laboratory.
Regarding colloidal electrolytes, there is also a proton exchange membrane that can be used in colloids, but it is still a major technical difficulty.
……
Chapter 459 Panasonic Group
"The current proton exchange membrane materials in solution mainly include fluorosulfonic acid, nafion recast membranes, non-fluoropolymers, um... and some new composite materials."
In the laboratory, Lin Xiao is studying the materials of proton exchange membranes.
For the proton exchange membrane, what kind of material to choose is a very important issue, which will determine its various chemical properties in the end.
"However, the most widely used material now belongs to this perfluorosulfonic acid membrane... Well, it is indeed more suitable to use such a material."
The proton exchange membrane can realize the exchange of hydrogen ions. In fact, it is not the so-called hydrogen ions on one side that pass through the membrane directly and then reach the other side.
Its actual working principle is that the membrane actively releases hydrogen ions, thereby realizing the transfer of hydrogen ions.
After all, in the microscopic field, unlike cells, there are receptor proteins on the surface that can recognize foreign substances. Everyone is an atom. Strictly speaking, everyone is composed of electrons, neutrons and protons, but some are fatter. Some are thinner, so they cannot recognize other atoms in the same way that cells can.
However, for Lin Xiao, the main difficulty he faces is that the various particles in the colloidal electrolyte are not as free as the particles in the solution. This is also the main difficulty in the solid electrolyte. How can the internal ions be like a solution? The free movement inside is more troublesome.
"Of course, once it is discharged, the adsorption of these ions by the electrodes can still be solved to a certain extent, but the internal resistance of the colloid is still relatively large. If you want to solve it, there are basically only two ways, or Increase the voltage between the positive and negative electrodes, or increase the permeability of the colloid..."
"Well... But if this happens, there will be a lot of things I have to solve."
Lin Xiao shook his head slightly.
What he is going to study now is a proton exchange membrane and two colloidal electrolytes. The research on each material is immeasurable.
"I guess I'm the only one who dares to study like this."
I complained in my heart, putting each of these materials outside, it is estimated that those companies are worth hundreds of millions of dollars in research and development, and Jinwu Group has only produced [-] million now.
It seems that he is still at a loss?
"For convenience, why don't you directly come up with a unified theory of directional synthesis of colloidal electrolytes?"
Such an idea suddenly appeared in Lin Xiao's heart.
If his idea is known to other researchers who are also studying solid-state electrolytes and want to overcome the major problems of future batteries, they will probably be shocked. At most, they will think about how to develop a sufficiently general solid-state electrolyte. That's enough. In the end, Lin Xiao planned to directly come up with a theory that could explain all solid electrolytes.
This kind of difficulty may not be as good as the time it takes to study the two colloids separately.
However, for Lin Xiao, it's not like he hasn't done this kind of thing before, and he still does it often.
Whether it is wave coherent superposition equations or the general solution of Navier-Stokes equations, they are all comprehensive theories that he directly developed for the same reason.
So he quickly made another decision.
"Then start with this unified theory."
Lin Xiao licked the corner of his mouth slightly, and was once again aroused by a sense of challenge in his heart.
Because, for him, if he only studies two different colloidal electrolytes separately, it is like doing a repetitive job for him. Although it is difficult, it is more of a troublesome feeling.
And to come up with a unified theory, and then directly get all the desired results from this unified theory, it is more of a pleasure for him to study science.
"Then, first give the unified characteristics of various colloids, and then..."
Lin Xiao was thinking in his heart, and at the same time he sat back on the chair next to him, found a piece of draft paper, and started to calculate.
……
Japan, in a materials laboratory under the name of Panasonic Group.
"Professor Tanaka, we succeeded! After improvement, the proton conductivity of our fluoropolymer proton exchange membrane reached 0.44S/cm!"
In a burst of cheers, these researchers all showed great excitement, and one of the researchers quickly ran to their project leader and reported the surprising news.
The person in charge of the project is Yosuke Tanaka, who is a professor of materials science at the University of Tokyo and also works in the Materials Research Institute under the name of Panasonic Group as an important researcher.
He has made a lot of achievements in fuel cells, especially hydrogen fuel cells and related materials. He can be said to be a leader in Japan.
At this moment, after learning the detailed data from the researcher in front of him, Yosuke Tanaka clenched his fist tightly and said in an excited tone, "Good job!"
Then he quickly came to the experimental bench and looked at the monitoring data displayed on the computer next to him.
The conductivity data of 0.44S/cm displayed above made him feel even more excited.
After spending so long, it finally hatched a successful fruit, which is obviously great news for him.
The conductivity of the proton exchange membrane determines the power generation efficiency of the hydrogen fuel cell. After all, according to the barrel effect, no matter how high the conductivity of other parts of the hydrogen fuel cell is, it depends on how many protons the proton exchange membrane can pass through.
And 0.44S/cm is currently the best proton exchange membrane in the world, and the conductivity of DuPont's perfluorosulfonic acid Nafion proton exchange membrane is 2.2 times.
The sudden increase of 2.2 times brings about the improvement of battery performance, especially the increase of current density, which is an important indicator of hydrogen fuel cells, which can also bring certain benefits to the improvement of the energy conversion rate of batteries. s help.
In this way, the advantages of lithium batteries in front of hydrogen fuel cells will no longer be an advantage because of this.
"Everyone is doing a good job. I will contact Minister Matsushita now and tell him the good news."
When the people present heard the words "Minister Matsushita", they immediately showed even more excited expressions.
The Minister of Panasonic is Makoto Matsushita, who is responsible for the energy business of Panasonic Group, including batteries. Although the battery business of Panasonic Group in the world is not as good as that of CATL or BYD, it is also in the world. They are ranked in the top four, so their Minister Matsushita also has a lot of power.
Of course, don't forget that their company is called Panasonic Group, and this Minister of Panasonic is also the grandson of the head of their Panasonic Group, and it is entirely possible to take over the power of their Panasonic Group in the future.
