Chapter 156 - Chapter 156: Single Crystal Pure Copper

"At present, our sixth-generation aircraft has entered the trial production stage!"Mr. Chu spoke first, and what he dropped was a heavy bomb, but he didn't care. He looked at Zhang Heng opposite him, and then continued: "Thanks to the new mixed fuel of Hengyuan Mining Group and the engine design drawings provided by Mr. Zhang.""As we all know, the sixth-generation fighter is defined as a supersonic stealth fighter. The requirement is at least that it can reach the level of supersonic cruise without afterburner, which puts higher requirements on power.""With the support of relevant units and research institutes, key breakthroughs have been made in the research and development of new engines, and the demonstration is very feasible.""If combined with the new mixed fuel, the new engine can barely meet the requirements. Of course, this does not mean that there are no problems, especially the engine, which is the power system of the fighter and the heart of the fighter. , it won't work without a strong driving force. ""Although the engine is feasible after discussion, it doesn't mean it can be built. I think everyone knows the reason, which is also everyone's professional field, that is, materials. New engines also put forward higher requirements for materials. "01"In addition, there are also new and higher requirements for materials in other aspects. ""Here, on behalf of Cheng Fei, I would like to thank Hengyuan Mining Group and Mr. Zhang again. In the components of the fighter, especially the circuits and other precision equipment and instruments, some of them use Mr. Zhang's super pure copper. ""Old Chu stopped talking here. Throwing out this heavy bomb is just one of the core purposes."Indeed, the emergence of super pure copper has indeed directly improved many aspects!"Mr.Hou would not say good things for Zhang Heng just because he accepted him as a student.He himself is not a person of this character.Especially in this occasion, everything is official and there is no mercy: "With our current smelting technology, it is possible to refine that kind of pure copper, but it is not difficult. "I believe everyone knows it.""Being able to refine does not mean that it can be refined on a large scale and in large quantities. Sometimes tens of millions of tons of high-quality pure copper may not be able to refine one ton of super pure copper."I will reveal another piece of news here.Our domestic nuclear energy research institute has conducted experiments on pure copper.All the data show that super pure copper can be fully used in the field of nuclear energy, that is, it can be fully used in the construction of nuclear power plants and other aspects. "This type of super pure copper is infinitely close to the level of single crystal pure copper, and single crystal pure copper must be familiar to everyone.If it is further refined to the level of single crystal pure copper, then its application field should have one more item, that is, controlled fusion."Hou Lao continued to talk about super pure copper and threw another bombshell, but it shocked Zhang Heng on the opposite side and also revealed the first core purpose of this trip: "What do you think about single crystal pure copper?"Any metal material, as long as the word "single crystal" is added in front, no matter in meaning or other aspects, becomes extraordinary.For example, if the word "single crystal" is not added, then the metal material is in the mortal world, and if the word "single crystal" is added, it is in the sky.That is the top and purest metal.What kind of existence is controlled fusion? I think anyone with a little common sense knows that it is extremely dangerous and something that humans urgently need.The most direct and simplest way to say it is that if you master the controlled fusion technology, then people Humans can create an artificial sun.This is not a joke.It can really be done.This statement has been around since the 1980s.Some attempts have been made to verify it, and the conclusion is that it can be done.However, it is also well known that controlled fusion technology is too difficult. There are so many problems and difficulties in it.Controllable!The two words are in the front. If you find this, you have to make it controllable, that is, you can control it, and then you can think about other things. If it cannot be controlled, it is not as simple as a time bomb. If it is out of control, destroying the earth is not a big deal.If you want to lock it up and control it at will, then the device is very important, and these devices happen to involve materials, among which the requirements for various single crystal materials are higher.Single crystal pure copper!It is just one of them.And the super pure copper that Zhang Heng made before is infinitely close to single crystal pure copper. It costs 58 million per ton. It seems unreasonable and expensive, but is it really expensive?"I really want to say a few words at this opportunity!"An old man from a materials research institute introduced by Colonel Qin spoke up and looked straight at Zhang Heng.Heng, slowly said: "At present, the batch of super pure copper provided by you, Mr.Zhang, is used in many fields.There are many extremely precise components that use your super pure copper.""As far as I know, some fighters, large transport aircraft, rockets from the aerospace industry, and satellites all use super pure copper, right? After all, the purity is so high. If nothing else, its conductivity is unimaginable when used in circuits.""This time, I came here to ask Mr. Zhang whether you still have super pure copper or will supply it in the future. At the same time, we also hope that Mr. Zhang can conduct further research on super pure copper [to see if it can break through to the level of single crystal pure copper?""Well... maybe my statement is not very detailed. What I want to express is whether we can put some effort into smelting to make single crystal pure copper to the point where it can be mass-produced."The old man looked very solemn, looking at Zhang Heng with infinite expectations, wanting to wait for the other party to give a reply.Zhang Heng was silent. How could he not know what it means to have the word "single crystal" on any metal?Does he have confidence?No, to be more precise, can it be done with the current situation of the mining ship?The answer is no!He had checked the catalog of the processing cabin before, and there was no option of single crystal pure copper in the copper metal. As for whether the mining ship could process and refine it?His answer is: Yes!Why can it be, but not?There is only one reason, that is, the processing cabin of the mining ship is damaged. With the current repair situation, it is impossible to refine it into single crystal metal, so it is impossible to do it now.But!With Hou Lao first mentioning it, and then the old man mentioning it again.Everyone's eyes are on Zhang Heng, and everyone is waiting for his answer.This answer is really too important.
