Anhui Kexin Microfluidic Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. was established in September 2021. As a technology-based startup, it received seed funding from Hefei Innovation Investment, angel investment from Hefei Industrial Investment, and a multimillion-dollar angel investment from Linear Capital (whose LPs include Sequoia, Hillhouse, and Temasek, among other top global VCs) at its inception. The company's founding team is composed of scientific and technological talents from universities such as the University of Science and Technology of China, Central South University, Tianjin University, Hefei University of Technology, and Anhui University, specializing in various fields including applied chemistry, chemical engineering, fluid mechanics, precision manufacturing, and automatic control. It is committed to becoming the first company in the industry to truly master the core technology of micro-reaction and provide overall technical solutions for industry users.
Relying on the research and development advantages of the University of Science and Technology of China, the company has broken through multiple key "bottleneck" technologies in the field of microchemical engineering, including the diamond-shaped microchannel design with independent intellectual property rights, the regulation of heat transfer and reaction coupling in the micro-reaction process, and the design, manufacturing, and integration of four types of micro-reaction equipment from kilograms to thousands of tons. It has completed the pilot-scale amplification and verification production of multiple high-value chemical products at the annual production level of hundreds to thousands of tons, as well as the transformation and upgrading of over a hundred continuous flow processes, which are widely applied in the intermediate fields of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, dyes, fragrances, and new materials.
