In 2000, Yung Zip Chemical had ever cooperated with the Union Chemical Laboratories of Industrial Technology Research Institute to develop the liquid crystalline technology program. In 2002, we applied again to Department of Industrial Technology Ministry of Economic Affairs R.O.C., enable us to attend Industrial Technology Development Program (ITDP), with honors to execute a project of developing technology of special chemicals for STN color liquid crystalline, the period is from November 2002 to April 2004.

The main portion of the program will focus on the technology development of the synthesis and formulation of liquid crystal monomers for low driving voltage color LCD. We'll cooperate with UCL to establish the basic technology in terms of liquid crystal synthesis, formulation, evaluation, panel testing and the world-wide famous company "ASAHI DENKA KOGYO K.K.," to develop a total solution technology for liquid crystals and obtain the patent and agency about key monomers, optical active chiral dopant and liquid crystal formulations. Moreover, we will do our best to take advantage of the invention outcomes to help LCD panel maker, e.g. CHUNGHWA PICTURE TUBES and PICVUE ELECTRONICS, respectively, to create new generation liquid crystal formulation for low driving voltage color LCD. The technology would be advantageous for our domestic companies to acquire the manufacturing and supplying abilities of the material of liquid crystal in Taiwan to cost down effectively the raw materials and strengthen the competitive ability. Besides, it will also provide a critical foundation of the material of liquid crystal to facilitate the development of panel such as reflective LCD, flexible LCD in the future.
