ZD New Materials is a National High-Tech Enterprise, a Provincial Specialized, High-end and Innovation-driven SME, a Wuhan Science and Technology Little Giant Enterprise, a "3551" Talent Enterprise, and an Optics Valley Gazelle Enterprise. It has won honors such as the China Society for Electrical Engineering Science and Technology Progress Award and the Hubei Province Science and Technology Progress Award.
ZD New Materials' liquid insulating material full physical, chemical, and electrical performance testing laboratory and electrical insulating materials research center are located at the Wuhan headquarters. The ZD vegetable insulating oil 7,000-ton production line is located in Huanggang, Hubei, and is the largest in China. Currently, the Yongkang base in Zhejiang is building a 50,000-ton vegetable oil production line and a vegetable oil coolant and lubricant R&D center, expected to be put into operation in mid-2026.
ZD vegetable insulating oil has always led the industry, with a domestic market share exceeding 60%. The number of transformers of 110kV and above ranks first in China, with a total proportion exceeding 80%, holding an absolute advantage. ZD New Materials' main customers include: State Grid, China Southern Power Grid, the five major and six small power generation groups and local power generation groups; China Electrical Equipment Group, TBEA Group, Baoding Tianwei Group and other leading transformer enterprises; large enterprise customers such as Chongqing Metro and Taiyo Yuden.
Typical application projects of ZD vegetable insulating oil include: State Grid Zhejiang Electric Power Corporation Huzhou 110kV Zero-Carbon Demonstration Station Project, China Southern Power Grid Guangzhou Bureau 220kV Test Transformer Project, Shenzhen Qianhai CBD Central Business District 110kV Substation Project, China Electrical Equipment Changzhou Toshiba 500kV Transformer R&D Project, Jimo Offshore Photovoltaic Supporting Box Transformer Project, Hubei Huadian Fishery-Photovoltaic Complementary Supporting Box Transformer Project, Yantai Dongyuan Export to the United States 220kV Transformer Project, Chongqing Metro Line 5 110kV Main Transformer Project, etc. The application scenarios of ZD vegetable insulating oil have achieved full coverage in power grids, traditional power generation, new energy, and industrial fields, leading comprehensively in all types and voltage levels of transformers.
ZD vegetable insulating oil raw materials come from natural oil crops, with wide sources, non-toxic and fully biodegradable; carbon emissions are only 1.6% of mineral oil; the product has higher fire safety; it can extend the life of transformers to 4-8 times the original.
ZD New Materials is the earliest enterprise in China dedicated to the R&D and production of vegetable insulating oil. It has always been committed to the R&D, improvement, and stable production of vegetable insulating oil products. Its product parameters are comprehensively superior to similar products at home and abroad, far exceeding domestic and international standard requirements. The one-time test pass rate of main transformers using ZD vegetable insulating oil is 100%; ZD vegetable insulating oil transformers have been in grid operation for more than 13 years and continue to operate stably and reliably to this day; ZD vegetable insulating oil and vegetable insulating oil transformer technology reserves are sufficient, and it can provide comprehensive support for the design, production, and operation of 10kV-500kV related transformers, which is unique in the industry; the enterprise is based on localized R&D and production in China, with profound research foundation and solid R&D and testing capabilities in the field of vegetable insulating oil and transformer-related operating characteristics. The product has obvious cost advantages and can provide 24-hour technical and product support, efficiently cooperating with customers in product inspection and development.
ZD New Materials attaches great importance to the innovation and R&D of new products. Other seed-based and gutter oil-based vegetable insulating oils have been verified in grid operation and put into the market. Currently, vegetable oil coolant has entered the commercial stage, and vegetable oil lubricant R&D is in the verification stage.
ZD New Materials is committed to becoming a benchmark enterprise in the power new materials industry, promoting the energy industry to develop continuously in a green, safe, and low-carbon direction with innovative power new materials!
