Among them, the income of quartz products increased, quartz tube increased by 79.3216 million yuan, or 33.53 percent, over the same period last year; quartz sand income increased by 46.81 million yuan, or 70.77 percent, over the same period last year; and income from quartz crucible products increased by 2.2545 million yuan over the same period last year, an increase of 37.51 percent over the same period last year.
In the photovoltaic field, quartz shares have a wide range of quartz products, such as high-purity quartz sand, quartz tube rods, all kinds of quartz devices, etc., and have the comprehensive ability to provide quartz material solutions for the photovoltaic industry chain.
From the field of optical fiber, the company's main products in the optical communication industry are quartz extension tube, quartz rod and optical fiber quartz casing, which are mainly used in optical fiber preform and optical fiber drawing process. Quartz shares will increase investment and research and development efforts, focusing on the layout of high-end quartz products, optical fiber with quartz casing to achieve batch sales, will become one of the important growth points of performance in the future.
In the semiconductor field, quartz products have been widely used in the compound semiconductor industry, quartz tube, rod, ingot materials have successfully passed the semiconductor certification of Tokyo electronic (TEL) diffusion equipment at the end of 2019; the independently developed quartz tube products have been well received by the semiconductor market and have passed the etched quartz certification of Lam in the United States in the second half of 2020.
In the field of optics, the company produces natural high-purity quartz materials and synthetic quartz materials, which can meet the needs of optical enterprises for high-quality optical quartz products. Relying on the company's advanced production technology and quality control capabilities and testing means, effectively improve the optical performance of customer products, optical quartz products are gradually recognized by the market.
In addition, its 6000 tons / year electronic quartz product project has been put into operation in some production lines as planned, and other production lines, power facilities, water, electricity and gas supporting projects are being carried out in an orderly manner. The civil construction of the second phase of the 20000 ton / year high purity quartz sand project has been carried out according to the plan and is expected to be completed and put into production in the fourth quarter of 2021. The 1800 t / a quartz weight project is progressing smoothly, some production lines have reached production, the corresponding gas matching has been completed, and the semiconductor certification of gas refining quartz products is under way.
In the second half of the year, Quartz will continue to focus on promoting the application and research of semiconductor quartz, synthetic quartz, special light source quartz, optical quartz and special functional quartz materials; and on the basis of passing the (LamResearch) semiconductor product certification of Tokyo Electronics of Japan and Ram Research of the United States, accelerate the product certification of applied materials in the United States and other mainstream semiconductor equipment manufacturers in China.
