Steel Products Sold by the Gram—Hebei Longfengshan New Materials Technology Group Co., Ltd. Successfully Develops Ultra-Pure Iron
In Hebei, the valuation standards of the steel industry are undergoing profound transformation. Certain cutting-edge steel products have transcended traditional measurement models, entering a precision value system measured in grams, demonstrating the industry's shift from scale expansion to innovation-driven development.
Hebei Longfengshan New Materials Technology Group Co., Ltd. has successfully developed ultra-pure iron, elevating the purity of iron-based materials to over 99.99% while controlling impurity levels to an extreme threshold of 0.000008%. This ultra-high-purity material, renowned for its exceptional performance in extreme environments, has become a critical foundational material in high-end manufacturing sectors such as aerospace, nuclear power, and precision instruments. With market prices reaching hundreds of yuan per gram, it truly achieves “value comparable to gold.”
“The core value of high-purity iron lies in its ‘purity,’” stated the company's representative. " Through innovative processes, we eliminate trace elements in iron-based materials to the absolute limit, ensuring material reliability under extreme operating conditions.“ To this end, the company collaborated with multiple research institutes to establish a comprehensive industrial R&D system encompassing elemental high-purity iron, electrolytic high-purity iron, and zone-melting ultra-pure iron, earning recognition as a national-level ”specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative" small giant enterprise.
The shift from “tons” to “grams” in measurement vividly illustrates Hebei's steel industry's profound transformation from extensive growth to innovation-driven development. The successful development of these high-value-added products has not only opened new market opportunities for the company but also provided a solid material foundation for China's high-quality manufacturing advancement, showcasing the steel industry's boundless potential in transformation and upgrading.
