Current Status of Technology Development
In order to solve the stagnation phenomenon of copper alloy material, Seowon established institute of technology in 2002 and has been focusing on the diversification of copper alloy material which progressed along with the human civilization for a long time, and producing the best product with new technology applied based on the endless research and development.
1. Development of Environmental Friendly Material
Development of Lead-free and Low-lead Copper Alloy Material
- Development of copper alloy material with less lead elution while minimizing lead (Pb) for water pipe related parts, such as faucets, etc., and maintaining machinability
- Development of copper alloy material which minimized lead content due to the strengthening of environmental regulation
Development of Corrosion Resistance Brass Material
- Development of material with excellent corrosion resistance even in the severe environmental conditions
Development of Lead-free Corrosion Resistance Brass Material
- Development of material with excellent corrosion resistance while minimizing lead (Pb) and maintaining machinability
Development of Various High Strength Brass Material
- Development of high strength copper alloy material used as a structural material by increasing the abrasion resistance and strength
Development of Gold Color Copper Alloy Material
- Development of material which can skip the acid dipping process for color sensation because of excellent fluidity and machinability while maintaining the color even after hot working
2. Development of Manufacturing Technology
Development of brass slab manufacturing process
- Development of 65/35 brass plate manufacturing technology
Development of Technology to Remove Impurities from Raw Material
- Development of technology to manufacture the various copper alloys by removing the unnecessary contents when using the raw materials
