BOE Display Technology Co., Ltd today disclosed that it has granted a new gas contract to Linde LienHwa (LLH), an upcoming Chinese thin-film display market. LLH, a subsidiary of The Linde Group, is also developing an ultra-high purity ammonia plant in Xiamen that will decrease cost and increase supply reliabilty. Both these projects will help LLH meet the technological advancements in TFT-LCD and LED manufacturing in China.
LLH has made a contract with BOE Display Technology Co.,to deliver gas for a long term that will help them fulfill the requirements in their TFT-LCD plant in Beijing. Ultra-high pure nitrogen and other gases like argon and oxygen will be supplied by LLH to BOE Technology under the agreement. In addition, LLH is also developing a Spectra-30,000 ultra-high purity nitrogen generator and has deposited 23 million Euros with the Beijing Development Authority for this project.
Another manufacturing sector that is on the rise is the production of Taiwanese LED wafers in China. The Home Appliance Subsidy Program is a Chinese campaign that seeks to shift the focus from exports to products suitable for rural use. The program has been the driving force behind the increased usage in LED display production.
An essential material used in the manufacturing of TFT-LCD and LED wafers is Ammonia. Andy Cook, President of LLH, China, said that customers have a high level of confidence in the company. He added that the ammonia plant developed in Xiamen will help LLH to create new opportunities in the market.
