In October 2021, China's Shenzhou 13 manned spacecraft was successfully launched and successfully docked with the core module of the Chinese Space Station. Among them, the outer surface of the solar cell array of the manned spacecraft is covered with nearly 20,000 high-strength radiation-resistant glass covers developed and produced by QHXJ Glass Technology Corporation. The main function of this high-strength anti-irradiation glass cover is to protect related equipment from high-energy particles in space, harmful rays, etc., and is called the "body armor" of the spacecraft.
The radiation-resistant glass products developed and produced for space use by QHXJ have repeatedly broken the monopoly of foreign technology and filled many gaps in China's aerospace glass technology field. In total, nearly 7 million pieces of special glass products have been provided for China's aerospace vehicles.
There are many varieties of aerospace glass that are difficult to manufacture. The aerospace glass used in China's spacecraft previously relied entirely on imports. QHXJ has made great contributions to the national aerospace industry by relying on independent research and development.
In 2009, QHXJ successfully developed OSR glass substrates, breaking the situation that OSR glass substrates were completely imported from abroad…
From "Shenzhou", "Tiangong" and "Chang'e", to spacecraft, space stations, lunar rover, Beidou satellites… Almost all spacecraft in China use high-performance glass products developed by QHXJ, and the company provides China's aerospace industry with The number of special glass products in China has reached more than 7 million pieces, and it has set a record of no quality errors in the products for 21 years, ensuring the smooth operation of all Chinese spacecraft in space.
