Classify and organize according to new energy, traditional electricity, oil and gas petrochemicals, hydrogen energy, and nuclear power, and distinguish three types of uses: ultra-thin precision steel strips, structural bundling steel strips, and heat-resistant conveyor steel strips:
1、 Energy Storage&Power Battery
1. Lithium battery module/PACK system
Square lithium iron phosphate power battery and energy storage battery module: stainless steel bundling steel strip (301/304), bundling the battery cells to maintain pressure and prevent charging and discharging expansion, used for passenger car power batteries, container energy storage, and household energy storage equipment.
Lithium battery explosion-proof valve: ultra-thin precision stainless steel strip (304L), controls burst pressure, assembled on the battery cell cover plate.
Battery thermal management: liquid cooled plate stamping substrate, sealed elastic steel strip.
2. Lithium battery production equipment
Polar roller pressing equipment, vacuum continuous baking oven, coating machine, vacuum conveying steel strip; Stainless steel conveyor belt for dust-free production line.
2、 Photovoltaic and solar energy industry
1. Photovoltaic cell production line equipment
Diffusion furnace, PECVD coating furnace, sintering furnace: High temperature resistant stainless steel conveyor belt (310S, 321).
Vacuum transmission assembly line: porous precision endless stainless steel strip, silicon wafer vacuum adsorption conveying.
2. Complete set of equipment for photovoltaic power plants
Photovoltaic tracking bracket, component frame connector, grounding fixing steel strip (304/316L); Coastal power stations often use 316L anti salt spray.
3. Solar thermal power generation equipment
Corrugated tube substrate for trough collector, sealing steel strip for molten salt heat exchanger, and supporting steel strip for high-temperature collector tube.
3、 Hydrogen energy equipment (mainly consisting of ultra-thin precision stainless steel strips)
1. Hydrogen fuel cell stack
Metal bipolar plate substrate: 0.05-0.1mm ultra-thin 316L precision stainless steel strip, stamped flow channel, is the core material of fuel cells.
2. Hydrogen production, storage, and refueling equipment
Elastic steel strip for electrolytic cell sealing and metal wrapped gasket steel strip for hydrogen pipeline;
Hydrogen storage bottle clamps and internal elastic components of high-pressure valves.
4、 Wind power equipment
Wind turbine: fixed steel strips and cooling duct lining inside the stator/rotor of the generator;
Offshore wind power: tower sealing steel strips, cable fastening straps (316L, duplex steel strips, resistant to ocean salt spray);
Elastic components of the pitch control system and sealing components of the cabin cabinet.
5、 Thermal power/waste to energy generation
1. Boiler auxiliary equipment
Dry air-cooled slag removal machine: scale plate stainless steel conveyor belt, conveying high-temperature slag;
2. Boiler body: supporting steel strips for superheater and economizer tube bundles;
3. Flue gas treatment equipment: SCR denitrification, bag filter frame steel strip, flue expansion joint lining steel strip;
4. Metal wrapped gaskets: Stainless steel metal strips are used for sealing flanges of steam turbines and boilers.
6、 Oil and gas&petrochemical energy equipment
1. Wellhead and downhole equipment
Underground sensor fixed steel strip and capillary pipeline fastening strip; Offshore platform pipeline insulation and bundling steel strip (316L resistant to hydrogen sulfide and seawater corrosion);
2. Refinery unit
Steel strip lining and furnace components for catalytic cracking and reforming heating furnaces; Base material for heat exchanger sealing gasket;
3. LNG equipment: Low temperature pipeline elastic sealing steel strip, cold insulation structure strapping (304L, 316L).
7、 Nuclear power equipment
Sealing steel strip for nuclear island auxiliary pipeline and elastic lining strip for heat exchanger (316L, 321, resistant to radiation and high-temperature water corrosion);
Tightening steel strips for spent fuel storage containers and thin steel strips lining the shielding structure;
Zirconium alloy is generally used for the core fuel cladding, and ordinary stainless steel strips are rarely used on the inner side of the core, but are mostly used for peripheral auxiliary systems.
8、 Hydroelectric equipment
Auxiliary sealing elastic steel strip for water turbine, water stop accessories for gate, reinforced steel strip for trash rack; Anti corrosion bundling tape for cables and pipelines in hydropower stations.
