Based on rich rare earth resources in Baotou as main raw materials and introduces the sophisticated equipment. We have boasted a core competence integrating material supply, technical support and equipment guarantee, with the design capacity 5100 tons / year. The main products of Alloy Manufacturing Department and M alloy Manufacturing Department are AB5 type &A2B7 type hydrogen storage alloy which used as cathode material of nickel-metal hydride battery. Product features including high-capacity, high and low temperature, low self-discharge and power. The products are applicable to NI-MH battery and energy storage equipment which suitable for civilian, medical instruments, instrumentation, industrial supporting, rail transit, vehicle T-box and other applications. At the same time, we also focus on the development and application of hydrogen storage alloys to the field of solid hydrogen storage, and got the approval of end customers. With the rise of hydrogen energy industry, our company has made excellent achievements in the field of solid hydrogen storage, and will make contributions to the hydrogen energy society. SMCO alloy products, made in SMCO Manufacturing Department, include 1-5 series and 2-17 series alloy, are well known for their good temperature characteristics among rare earth permanent magnet alloys. Compared with NdFeB products, SMCO product shows better corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance in high temperature environments (>200℃). And our SmCo alloy products win the market with high quality and stability, are used in high-tech fields such as motors, meters, sensors, refrigerators, engines, magnetic separators, and petro-chemical. 

The company will be able to further differentiate itself from its competitors and gain a stronger global market share by integrating its hydrogen storage alloy development and manufacturing capabilities with FDK's development capabilities and sales network of Ni-MH battery. The company will continue to grow into a world-leading company in the hydrogen storage field in response to the future hydrogen society.
