Subsidies for manufacturing in fiscal 2016

The Subsidy for Supporting Development of Innovative Manufacturing, Commerce, and Services for Fiscal Year 2008, as amended, which was received on May 17, 2009, has been completed and the completion report has been accepted.

The project plan, “Development and commercialization of additives that impart fine dispersibility and conductive properties in collaboration with public research institutions”, has been completed and the completion report has been accepted.

We have developed additives to improve the dispersibility and conductivity of nanocarbons (CNT, graphite), and have confirmed a certain decrease in dispersion viscosity and improvement in conductivity of coating films in prototype products.

We will continue to further develop the additives by further utilizing the know-how and results obtained through the subsidy project.
