Products and services

• LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer Film) High-frequency transmission film that maintains constant dielectric constant at high frequencies with very small tangent loss, suitable for millimeter wave applications. Used as a high-frequency packaging material and processed into Flexible Printed Circuits (FPCs) for antenna modules in smartphones, autonomous vehicles, and wearable devices.
• COC Film (Cyclic Olefin Copolymer) Transparent, highly pure non-crystalline resin with 91% light transmittance, low birefringence, Tg of 178°C, low dielectric constant, and excellent high-frequency dielectric properties. Suitable for high-performance electronic products including antennas for mobile devices.
• Quantum Dot Film Series Products Wide color gamut special optical thin film with multi-layer composite structure containing fluorescent quantum dots. Includes conventional quantum dot films, low Cd quantum dot films, Cd-free quantum dot films, barrier-free quantum dot films, and quantum dot composite films for mid-to-high-end displays.
• Quantum Dot Composite Film Multifunctional optical composite film combining color gamut enhancement, brightening, and light diffusion functions. Paired with blue light LED chips and Mini/Micro LED chips for backlight modules, reducing assembly pressure and production costs.
• Optical Composite Film Optical composite film series (POP, DPP, COP, DOP, CPP, MOP) combining two to three optical films through composite process with multiple functions including diffusion, brightening, and shielding. Applied to ultra-thin liquid crystal display modules.
• Mini LED/LCD Optical Film Series Products Optical films for Mini LED including microstructure diffusion films and diffuse reflection films. Can effectively hide Mini LED points and improve light efficiency by combining different microstructure diffusion films, further combinable with fluorescent films.
• Barrier Film High-precision coating technology applied to polymer film materials to effectively block low molecular weight chemicals such as gases and organic compounds, protecting unstable quantum dots. Uses PET substrate with good molecular chain planarity and tightly packed molecular chains.
• Dry Film for PCB Polymer compound that produces polymerization reaction under UV irradiation to form stable substance attached to board surface, blocking electroplating and etching. Used for circuit boards, lead frames, semiconductor packaging, and other circuit or pattern production.
• UV Debonding Film Special adhesive tape with good ductility for easy film expansion and particle extraction, with temperature resistance for special temperature processes. Used for chip cutting, electronic component cutting, and optoelectronic glass cutting. Features high adhesive force before UV irradiation that almost disappears after UV exposure.
• Superhydrophobic Coating Coating film material for specialized applications including photovoltaic power plants, building glass exterior walls, external surfaces of transportation vehicles, and clothing.
• GIS Thin Film Series Products Functional optical thin film products for display applications including AR/VR, Mini LED, LCD TVs, desktop displays, laptops, and car-mounted displays.
