Oversized ultra-thin flexible folding glass: leading a new vision of flexible display

With the accelerated iteration of information technologies such as 5G and AI, as well as the increasing demand for human-computer interaction, flexible display has become a hot topic leading the new round of transformation in the display industry. Ultra thin flexible glass has the characteristics of ultra-thin, wear-resistant, high strength, bendability, and good resilience, and is considered an ideal material for folding flexible display covers such as smartphones, laptops, scroll TVs, car displays, and smart wearables.

What is Ultra Thin Flexible Glass (UTG)

Ultra thin flexible glass (UTG) is a type of glass material with flexibility and bendability properties, with a thickness of less than 100 microns. Unlike traditional rigid glass, it can bend freely without the need for heat treatment and only under external force. This material is made through special manufacturing processes and has characteristics such as ultra-thin, wear-resistant, high-temperature resistant, corrosion-resistant, high-strength, high transparency, bendability, and good resilience.

Unique features of ultra-thin flexible glass (UTG)

As a glass material with flexibility and bendability, UTG is different from traditional rigid glass in that it can bend freely without the need for heat treatment under external forces. This material is made through a special manufacturing process, which not only achieves ultimate lightweight, but also has excellent bending resistance and resilience, greatly improving the durability and scratch resistance of the screen, ensuring that the phone remains smooth like a mirror after countless folds, bringing users a clearer and more delicate visual experience.

The road to technological breakthroughs in ultra-thin flexible glass (UTG)

As a key material for flexible displays, The research and mass production of UTG materials have always been controlled by a few leading display companies abroad, which restricts the sustainable and healthy development of the domestic flexible display industry chain. Kaisheng Technology Co., Ltd. relies on the technological research and development strength of Academia Sinica and the company's years of accumulation in electronic glass raw materials and thinning technology, and is committed to the development of UTG process technology and investment in the research and development of mass production line equipment. The technical team works day and night, continuously tackling UTG processing difficulties, innovating and developing industry-leading laser processing technology, leading the upgrade of UTG processing technology, achieving a breakthrough from "0" to "1", successfully developing mainstream ultra-thin flexible glass with a thickness of 30-70 microns, forming the only domestically and internationally pioneering coverage of "high-strength glass - ultra-thin thinning". The nationwide UTG industry chain of high-precision machining flexible bonding.

The finished products of flexible glass can be folded from 200000 times to 400000 times, and then to 1 million times; The bending radius ranges from 3 millimeters to 1 millimeter, and then to 0.5 millimeters. Behind every seemingly slight improvement in numerical values is the result of the R&D team's tireless efforts day and night.

Application scenarios of ultra-thin flexible glass (UTG)

At present, the performance of ultra-thin flexible glass in terms of flexibility and foldability has reached the world's top level, and can be widely used in product fields such as foldable mobile phones, scroll televisions, flexible medical detection equipment, 5G/6G antennas, etc. The ultra-thin flexible glass solution has been applied to the world's first car mounted sliding curled AMOLED display screen, using top-level display materials to help Chinese cars with national screens embark on a new journey. At the same time, keeping up with market demand, we continuously promote the iteration and upgrading of UTG technology, and continue to develop towards ultra-thin, functional, composite, intelligent and other directions. We quickly iterate and develop a batch of products such as flexible glass UFG with uneven thickness, microcrystalline glass flexible cover plate, key materials for screen directional sound, and key materials for media free imaging. We continue to advance the research and development of cutting-edge material core technologies, bringing users a richer selection of foldable screen products and creating a "moat" for the new quality development of enterprises.
