Can The Fibers Extracted From Soybeans Also Be Used As Underwear?

He has only a high school diploma, but what he developed is willing to spend 600 million.

But he refused the huge sum of money and left his research in China.

He developed "the eighth largest man-made fiber in the world" and realized the breakthrough of Chinese in the history of man-made fiber invention.

The Americans bought 600 million of his research results. In 2001, Li Guanqi developed the "plant protein synthetic silk and its manufacturing method", which was awarded the invention patent certificate issued by the State Patent Office.

Until a group of Americans broke into his old home - Huaxian's San Zhai village, to buy 600 million of his stuff, the villagers knew that Li Guanqi's "baby" was so valuable.

Li Guanqi rejected American purchase requirements.

He valued the significance of this technology to China because it was the eighth largest man-made fiber in the world, and realized the breakthrough of Chinese in the history of man-made fiber invention.

In 1977, he resigned as captain of the production team in high school culture, and began to go out to start his own business. By 1990, after more than 10 years of primitive accumulation, Li Guanqi had made tens of millions of yuan.

In 1991, Li Guanqi saw a plation in the Chemical Abstracts, that "soybean protein in soybean meal can extract fibers and spin into cloth", which aroused great interest. According to his own words, "I immediately calculate the cost and profit of producing soybean fiber, and feel that it is much better than developing feed equipment."

He developed knowledge about chemistry and physics. He graduated from high school and bought lots of books to teach himself.

Many alphabetic symbols do not understand, and buy various dictionaries and other reference books to check, a little bit of groping forward.

All the savings were put in, but failed again and again.

His family was also persuaded to give up. He did not listen, ran to Puyang 50 kilometers away from home, and tried to go home once a year.

In 2001, after a total of more than 3000 yuan in debt, he had experimented more than 800 times, and he finally succeeded.

In September 2003, he was invited to attend the World Conference on artificial fibres held in Austria. Soybean protein fiber was recognized as the world's eighth largest man-made fiber, officially incorporated into the annals of the invention of artificial fibers, making China the only country in the world that can produce industrial textile soybean fibers.

In December of the same year, Li Guanqi was awarded the gold medal of invention patent of the World Intellectual Property Organization and the gold medal of invention patent of the Intellectual Property Office of China.

After Li Guanqi got the patent certificate, he didn't stop it. He wanted to turn it into a product.

He said soybean fiber is mainly extracted from soybean meal, which is a comprehensive utilization of waste. The cost is also low, only 1/3 of silk and 1/15 of cashmere.

In 2005, the 1 million 200 thousand year (set) soybean fiber high-grade underwear production line was built and put into operation in Huaxian. The terminal products were put into the market in a comprehensive way, which caused a sensation in the world.

But he is not satisfied with it.

Since 2002, he has also studied the performance of soybean fiber on his own subject, and successively studied and successfully made it have anti ultraviolet function, antibacterial and bacteriostatic function and negative oxygen ion function, which made the terminal products diversified.
