Chapter 1040: Layout Metal Sodium

Rudolf also felt that it was a bit easy to get the money. The boss had already provided a full set of technical information. They only made partial adjustments, and there was no innovation at all. Even so, they still paid huge rewards, so why not be satisfied!

Bao Zixuan: "Are there any difficulties in achieving mass production?"

Although he is an engineer, he also knows that the products developed can only be considered successful if they are mass-produced. Rudolf was already prepared and said directly: "Unlike the previous solar panels, polycrystalline silicon is used as the raw material. Our solar panel core material

It’s metallic sodium.”

"Although under normal circumstances, pure sodium will lose its luster quickly and react violently with moisture in the air. But as long as the metallic sodium is kept in a vacuum state, this problem will not occur."

"So we built a protective cover on the surface and used a vacuum environment to store metallic sodium. At present, the cost of surface materials is relatively high, and a large amount of metallic sodium is also required."

Of course, a large number of batteries are needed as energy storage devices, and these need to be solved one by one.

Sodium is a metal element with the element symbol na and its English name sodium. It is located in period 3 and group 1a of the periodic table. It is a representative of alkali metal elements. It has a soft texture and can react with water to generate sodium hydroxide and release hydrogen gas.

, chemical properties are relatively active. Sodium element is widely distributed in the land and ocean in the form of salt. Sodium is also one of the important components in human muscle tissue and nervous tissue.

After Volta invented the battery in the early 19th century, chemists from various countries have successfully used batteries to decompose water. The British chemist Humphrey Davy was relentlessly engaged in experimental research on using batteries to decompose various substances. He hoped to use batteries to decompose caustic materials.

Potassium decomposes into oxygen and an unknown "radical" because chemists at the time thought caustic sodas were oxides.

He first experimented with a saturated solution of caustic potassium, but the result was the same as the electrolysis of water, only hydrogen and oxygen were obtained. Later, he changed the experimental method and electrolyzed molten caustic potassium, and a metallic luster similar to mercury appeared on the cathode.

beads, some beads

It burned and exploded immediately, forming a bright flame, and some small beads did not burn, but the surface darkened and was covered with a white film. He put this small metal particle into the water, and flames immediately appeared on the water surface.

It runs quickly and makes a piercing sound.

In this way, Davy discovered metallic potassium in 1807, and a few days later, he obtained metallic sodium from the electrolysis of sodium carbonate.

There is still a lot of this metal that has been successfully refined for almost 200 years on the earth. However, it must be planned in advance and no one can get there first.

Bao Zixuan: "The more transparent the protective cover, the better, but at the same time, we must also pay attention to safety. Even if there is a problem with a small area, it does not matter much. I am afraid that it will cause a chain reaction of solar panels in the entire area, which will be nothing like a bomb explosion.

"Both"

Although this is a bit exaggerated, it is not unreasonable. For safety reasons, three-layer protective covers will be installed on solar panels inside the city. Even if the effect is less effective and the cost is higher, it does not matter. Compared with safety, the cost increases.

It's not that important at all.

German engineers are still very good at safety. This is why Bao Zixuan handed over the project to Rudolf. Not only because the other party is a top expert in the field; the technical information is of the same origin and easier to understand. Of course, it also includes strict prohibitions on doing things.

It is still worthy of recognition and learning.

Rudolf said with a serious expression: "Boss, please rest assured about the protective layer. The reason for the relatively high cost is that safety has been taken into consideration. After testing, it is enough to withstand direct attacks from AK47 bullets. But the service life is ten years.

After years, it must be replaced for safety reasons."

With this guarantee, Bao Shoufang felt relieved. It seemed that as long as he set a good direction, it would be a good choice to leave the rest to the people below. Being able to drive a few nails and mobilize the enthusiasm of all employees was better than

Everything is strong.

Bao Zixuan: "You still need to stay here for a month to improve the experimental data and try to improve product performance."

At present, the experiment is basically over, and he will stay here for another month. Rudolf immediately understood what it meant. Everyone was not stupid. The boss must be preparing to purchase a large amount of sodium metal. They all have experienced it personally, so of course they know

As Black Cloud solar panels are introduced to the market, what will become of the status of metallic sodium?

Even for ordinary metals, if the demand increases, the boat will naturally rise with the tide. As an engineer, you must know how to make trade-offs. Some money should be earned by you, such as project bonuses issued by the company; some money has nothing to do with you and must be regarded as the past.

I don’t know. At this time, metallic sodium is

For example, they all know the real data of the experiment. They also know that new solar power generation mainly relies on the application of metallic sodium. But you shouldn’t make this money, otherwise you will die in an ugly way, and no company will dare to do so in the future.

If I hire you, I'm ruining my own job.

After that, I went to see several other ongoing projects, and it can be said that they all made breakthroughs. However, a bottleneck appeared on the third-generation machine. Heiyun Group did not have relevant technical reserves before, and the technical information provided by McDonnell Douglas was not very comprehensive.

Complete. This is understandable. After all, it is the guy who eats and is the core industry. At the same time, it involves the national defense and security of the United States. There are some red lines that Bao Zixuan does not dare to step on.

When I returned to the office, I first called Zhao Tingting, Yuan Tianfan, and Huo Jianning; now that the solar electromagnetic panels have been successfully developed, preparations must be made in advance for mass production.

The three of them were a little baffled by the boss's sudden summons. Bao Zixuan rarely interfered with the company's specific affairs, and left many things to his subordinates. Maybe research and development is his favorite, but there are too many administrative matters recently, which makes it a bit uncomfortable.

Habit. And it’s easy not to summon subordinates to report work. Basically, problems can be solved on the computer; if you don’t deliberately brush up on your presence, it’s a waste of time.

Although Zhao Tingting is a woman, she definitely belongs to the category of big housekeeper in Heiyun Group. She is trusted by her boss and is considered the number two person in the company. Yuan Tianfan is the president of Heiyun Bank and has become a moneybag. The boss must mobilize huge amounts of funds.

, otherwise it would not be taken seriously.

As for Huo Jianning, although he is affiliated with Hutchison Whampoa, no one will exclude Hutchison Whampoa from the Black Cloud system. There are very few circulating shares. Except for a small amount held by Li Chaoren, they are basically held by internal employees of Black Cloud.

.Even in the eyes of many Heiyun employees, Hutchison Whampoa is their last resort.

It is impossible for Heiyun Group to divide its shares, so don't even think about getting shares in this life. Hutchison Whampoa is different. It is a typical employee-owned company. When the time comes, if you acquire the shares from Li Chaoren, it will be the same as your own.

the difference.

Seeing that the three people had arrived, Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "There is no other meaning in calling them here. Currently, the group has many projects going on at the same time, and the financial pressure is very high."

"As you know, I never know how to save. But when it comes to open source, I have a lot of ideas. In the near future, I need you to allocate some funds. We are going to attack a metal in the futures market and the real market."

"Just coming out of the laboratory, the group's engineers have made a major breakthrough in solar power generation technology. A metal raw material is a necessity, and the demand will be very large in the future. However, the current reserves of this metal are not small. If you want to leverage the market, you must

We must fight quickly.”

"When everything settles, I believe there will be no funding problems in the short term."

As the big housekeeper of Heiyun Group, Zhao Tingting certainly knows what kind of situation the group is in. That is to say, it relies on its strong revenue capabilities, otherwise problems would have arisen a long time ago. Although a company as large as Heiyun Group does not have any loans, every day

Basically all the monthly income will be spent. This is a very dangerous thing. If there is a problem in that link, the consequences will be disastrous.

Now I hear my boss say that the laboratory has made a major technological breakthrough, and I finally feel a little calmer. The successful research and development of new technologies means that the group will add a new revenue point. This is absolutely a win-win situation for the Heiyun Group, which is somewhat strapped for funds.

That's good news.

Moreover, he can also earn some cash in the futures market. Seeing Bao Zixuan confident, the only thing Zhao Tingting has to do is to execute the order well.

She has unconditional trust in her boss. This man has never made any mistakes, and many things seem to have been planned. Besides, the company belongs to others, so even if he makes mistakes, she does not need to pay for it.
