Construction Standards for Carbon Fiber Material Research Laboratories
In the brilliant constellation of materials science, carbon fiber materials are like a dazzling "technological star". With outstanding properties such as ultra-light weight, ultra-high strength, and excellent corrosion resistance, they are widely used in many cutting-edge fields such as aerospace, automobile manufacturing, and high-end sports equipment, and have become the focus pursued by the global scientific research and industrial communities. To unlock more potential of carbon fiber materials and overcome technological bottlenecks, it is crucial to build a professional laboratory that meets its research needs. Relying on its profound industry accumulation, Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd. will analyze in depth the construction standards for carbon fiber material research laboratories for you today.
I. Requirements for the Purified Environment: Spotlessly Clean to Guard the Purity of Scientific Research
The preparation process of carbon fiber is extremely sensitive to dust and impurities. The mixing of tiny particles may cause flaws in carbon fiber and damage its strength, greatly reducing the performance of the finished product. The purification level of the laboratory needs to reach Class 10,000 or even higher standards, that is, the number of dust particles with a particle size greater than 0.5 micrometers in each cubic meter of air is strictly controlled within 35. To this end, we adopt a progressive air filtration system: primary filters intercept large particles of dust and hair; medium-efficiency filters capture suspended impurities of medium particle size; high-efficiency particulate air filters (HEPA) act as the "gatekeepers" to block tiny dust particles, filling the experimental space with clean air. Moreover, the purified areas should be strictly divided, and the experimental operation area, sample storage area, and testing area should each be "independently formed", avoiding cross-contamination and providing a "dust-free cradle" for all aspects of carbon fiber from raw materials to finished products.
II. Precise Control of Temperature and Humidity: A Constant Environment to Stimulate the Potential of Materials
The chemical properties and physical structure of carbon fiber materials vary in stability under different temperatures and humidities. The ideal experimental environment temperature is usually stabilized between 23 °C and 25 °C, and the humidity is maintained between 45% and 55% relative humidity (RH). With the help of an intelligent temperature and humidity control system, high-precision sensors can "perceive" subtle changes in the environment in real time and link with air conditioners, humidifiers, and dehumidifiers to quickly respond and adjust. In the sweltering summer, the refrigeration module makes every effort to cool down; in the freezing winter, the heating elements quietly raise the temperature; when the air is dry, the humidifying equipment sprays finely; when the humidity exceeds the standard, the dehumidification system operates efficiently. The precisely constant temperature and humidity are like a "customized" comfortable bed for carbon fiber, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of material performance testing and process research and development, and the authenticity and validity of experimental data.
III. Ventilation and Waste Gas Treatment: Keeping the Air Fresh to Solve the Hidden Concerns of Pollution
Carbon fiber research often involves processes such as the volatilization of chemical reagents and high-temperature pyrolysis, which generate harmful waste gas and dust. A good ventilation system is the "healthy lungs" of the laboratory. A combination of local ventilation and overall ventilation is adopted: local exhaust vents are set above the points where chemical reagents are used and above pyrolysis equipment to capture polluted air in a timely manner; the overall ventilation of the whole room ensures the continuous replacement of the overall air. Waste gas treatment is an even more critical link. For volatile organic compounds (VOCs), acidic gases, and dust, professional equipment such as activated carbon adsorption, acid-base neutralization, and bag dust removal is selected for purification treatment respectively, and the gas is discharged after meeting the standards, protecting the ecological environment of the laboratory and its surrounding areas.
IV. Adaptation of the Electrical System: Stable Power Supply to Escort Precise Research
Carbon fiber research relies on a large number of precision instruments, such as scanning electron microscopes, thermogravimetric analyzers, and tensile testing machines, which have extremely high requirements for the stability and safety of power supply. The electrical lines adopt low-smoke, halogen-free, flame-retardant cables to reduce the risk of fire; an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is equipped to enable seamless switching in an instant when the mains power is interrupted, preventing data loss and sudden shutdown of instruments. The layout of sockets is reasonably planned according to the positions of instruments to meet the power needs of multiple devices at the same time; the grounding system strictly meets the standards to discharge static electricity and leakage current, safeguarding the safety of personnel and instruments in all aspects and ensuring the smooth progress of scientific research experiments.
V. Layout of Laboratory Benches and Equipment: Scientific Planning to Improve Research Efficiency
The research process of carbon fiber is complex. From raw material pretreatment, fiber spinning to performance testing, the layout of equipment and laboratory benches in each link should be scientific. Following the principle of "smooth process flow and convenient and efficient operation", the pretreatment area is adjacent to the raw material storage area to reduce the distance of material handling; sufficient space is reserved around the spinning equipment to facilitate equipment debugging and fiber winding; the testing area is equipped with shock-absorbing benches to place high-precision testing instruments and isolate vibration interference. The materials of the laboratory benches are selected from special countertops that are corrosion-resistant, anti-static, and high-temperature resistant, meeting the special needs of carbon fiber experiments and helping scientific researchers devote themselves wholeheartedly to research and accelerate the output of results.
VI. Safety Protection System: Multiple Safeguards to Build a Solid Safety Bottom Line
Carbon fiber research often involves working conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, and toxic reagents, and the safety risks cannot be underestimated. The laboratory is equipped with a series of protection facilities for fire prevention, explosion prevention, poison prevention, and radiation protection: fire doors and firewalls divide fire compartments; explosion-proof electrical and ventilation equipment are used in flammable and explosive areas; toxic reagents are stored in special fume hoods, and personal protective equipment is provided; instruments involving radiation comply with strict shielding and management standards. Regular safety training and emergency drills are carried out to strengthen the safety awareness of scientific researchers and improve their emergency response capabilities, ensuring that laboratory accidents "never occur".
Engaging in the construction of carbon fiber material research laboratories carries the hope of technological breakthroughs and is related to the overall situation of industrial upgrading.

Construction of Dust-Free Clean Rooms for Deep Blue Gallium Oxide Semiconductors
In the semiconductor field, a technological revolution driven by new materials is surging forward. Deep blue gallium oxide, as a highly promising "rising star" among them, has opened up new paths for the research and development of high-performance semiconductor devices with its excellent properties. However, to transform it from laboratory achievements into large-scale industrial production, a dust-free clean room that suits its characteristics is essential. Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd. , which has been deeply involved in the purification industry for many years, will take you to comprehensively understand the key points in the construction of dust-free clean rooms for deep blue gallium oxide semiconductors today.
I. Strict Control of Purification Levels
The production process of deep blue gallium oxide semiconductors is extremely sensitive to impurities such as dust and microorganisms. In key processes such as wafer manufacturing, lithography, and etching, even tiny particles "mixed in" can cause short circuits in chips, performance degradation, and a significant reduction in the yield rate. Therefore, the purification level of the workshop usually needs to reach Class 10 or even higher standards. This means that the number of dust particles with a particle size greater than 0.5 micrometers in each cubic meter of air is strictly controlled within 10. Guangzhou Kunling adopts international leading air filtration technologies. From primary filtration to intercept large particles of dust, to medium-efficiency filtration to capture medium-sized impurities, and then through high-efficiency particulate air filters (HEPA) and ultra-low penetration air filters (ULPA) for layer-by-layer "screening", it ensures that the air entering the workshop is almost free of impurities, laying a pure foundation for precision production.
II. Precise Control of Temperature and Humidity
The electrical properties and crystal structure stability of gallium oxide semiconductor materials vary significantly under different temperature and humidity environments. The suitable temperature range is usually locked between 22 °C and 25 °C, and the humidity is maintained at 40% - 50% relative humidity (RH). The workshop is equipped with an intelligent temperature and humidity control system. Through high-precision sensors that monitor environmental data in real time, it links with air conditioners, humidifiers, and dehumidifiers to respond and adjust quickly. When the temperature soars in hot summer days, the refrigeration module operates efficiently to cool down; when it is dry in winter, the humidifying equipment sprays precisely to increase humidity, creating a constant temperature and humidity "microclimate" to keep the gallium oxide materials and equipment in the best working condition and reduce the risk of process deviations.
III. Meticulous Anti-static Measures
In semiconductor processing, static electricity is a "hidden killer". The circuits of deep blue gallium oxide chips are fine, and the discharge phenomenon caused by static electricity can easily break down transistors and damage chips. The floor materials are made of anti-static PVC or epoxy self-leveling flooring, with the surface resistance strictly controlled within the range of 10^6 - 10^9 ohms to quickly dissipate static electricity. Equipment and workbenches are equipped with static eliminators, and ion fans continuously blow out positive and negative ions to neutralize charges. Operators wear anti-static work clothes and shoe covers, being fully "armed" to eliminate the hidden dangers of static electricity accumulation and discharge from the source and protect the integrity of products.
IV. Scientific Planning of Ventilation and Airflow Organization
Good ventilation in the workshop can not only ensure fresh air but also help exhaust process waste gas and dissipate heat for cooling. For specific processes in gallium oxide production, a combination of unidirectional flow and turbulent flow air distribution forms is adopted. In the lithography area, vertical unidirectional flow with a stable flow rate (0.3 - 0.5 meters per second) precisely carries dust out; in areas such as material storage and assembly, turbulent flow ventilation is set up to efficiently replace the air. The materials for ventilation ducts are selected considering fire prevention, rust prevention, and low air leakage rates. Fans are accurately selected according to the scale of the workshop and the frequency of air changes to ensure that the air volume and air pressure are suitable and maintain the orderly flow of air and dilute the concentration of harmful substances.
V. Appropriate Layout of Process Equipment
The preparation process of deep blue gallium oxide is complex, and lithography machines, etching machines, chemical vapor deposition equipment, etc. vary in size, weight, and have special requirements for vibration during operation and heat dissipation. The layout of the workshop adheres to the principle of "smooth process flow and non-interference between equipment". Different functional areas are divided, and heavy equipment is placed in areas with good load-bearing and excellent shock absorption. Heat dissipation channels are reserved and cooling devices are installed according to the heat dissipation curves of the equipment. The intervals between adjacent equipment are reasonable to facilitate maintenance, operation, and debugging, enabling efficient linkage of equipment and stable production of high-quality semiconductor products.
VI. Upgraded Personnel Management and Training
People are a key factor in the operation of the workshop, but they are also a potential source of pollution. Personnel entering the dust-free clean room for deep blue gallium oxide need to go through a strict dressing process, from air shower dust removal to wearing sterile protective clothing, masks, and gloves, layer by layer for cleaning. Professional training is regularly carried out to strengthen employees' knowledge of semiconductor processes, operation norms in clean rooms, and the ability to respond to emergencies. New employees are given practical guidance by experienced colleagues to master the details of material handling and equipment operation, reducing the probability of product contamination and damage caused by human errors.
Engaging in the construction of dust-free clean rooms for deep blue gallium oxide semiconductors is both a challenge and an opportunity. Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd. , Ltd. relies on its rich project experience, professional technical team, and high-quality purification products to customize one-stop solutions throughout the process. From preliminary planning, construction to later operation and maintenance, we will make precise efforts to help enterprises seize the high ground in the deep blue gallium oxide industry. If you are planning such a workshop project or have questions about construction details, please feel free to contact us immediately and let's work together to create a new model of clean semiconductor manufacturing.
Calculation Methods for Fresh Air Volume and Supply Air Volume in Dust-Free Clean Rooms
In numerous cutting-edge fields such as electronic chip manufacturing, biomedical research and development, and high-end precision instrument production, dust-free clean rooms play an irreplaceable role in "providing safeguard". The constant and suitable air environment inside them is the key to ensuring product quality, process precision, and the health of personnel. And the fresh air volume and supply air volume are just like the "pulse" of this crucial system, so it is of vital importance to accurately control their values. As the professional Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd., today we will take you to have an in-depth understanding of their calculation methods.
Calculation of Fresh Air Volume: The "Lifeline" Related to Breathing and the Environment
Requirements for Personnel Breathing
The oxygen consumption for the breathing of workers in the dust-free room is a fundamental factor to be considered when calculating the fresh air volume. Generally, an adult needs about 30 - 50 cubic meters of fresh air per hour. Suppose there are 20 workers on duty simultaneously in a clean room on a daily basis. Estimating the fresh air volume at 40 cubic meters per hour per person, at least 20 × 40 = 800 cubic meters per hour of fresh air is required in this area. This is to disperse the carbon dioxide exhaled by people, odors, and so on, maintain fresh air, and avoid discomfort such as dizziness and fatigue caused by lack of oxygen and dirty air among personnel, thus ensuring an efficient working state.
Requirements for Maintaining Positive Pressure
In order to prevent the unpurified air from the outside from "sneaking in", most dust-free clean rooms are maintained in a slightly positive pressure state. According to practice and industry standards, the pressure difference between clean rooms of different levels and adjacent lower-level or non-clean areas is between 5 - 20 Pascals. To achieve this positive pressure, it depends on the support of fresh air. Taking a common Class 100,000 clean room as an example, combined with the room volume and the airtightness of the enclosure structure, through complex formula conversions (air volume = air change rate × room volume, where the air change rate is set according to the empirical value for maintaining positive pressure), calculate the additional fresh air volume required to make up for the leakage through gaps and maintain positive pressure. Then add the fresh air volume for personnel breathing to get the complete fresh air requirement.
Compensation for Process Exhaust Air Volume
Some production processes will emit dust, hot air, and harmful gases, such as electronic welding fumes and chemical synthesis volatiles. Corresponding exhaust fans will continuously extract air. In order to balance the indoor air flow and air pressure, the fresh air volume needs to be supplemented equally or in excess of this part of the loss. If the process exhaust air volume is stable at 500 cubic meters per hour, the planning of the fresh air volume should reserve at least this value to prevent negative pressure from causing unclean air to flow back and contaminate the clean operation area.
Calculation of Supply Air Volume: The "Backstage Promoter" for Creating Uniform and Clean Air Flow
Based on Air Change Rate
The air change rate is a commonly used yardstick for calculating the supply air volume. Different purification level clean rooms have very different requirements for the air change rate: Class 100 (high-standard aseptic areas for biopharmaceutical production) often requires 500 - 600 times per hour; Class 10,000 clean rooms used for general electronic packaging are about 25 - 35 times per hour; Class 100,000 (most common electronic processing) is usually 15 - 20 times per hour. Given a Class 100,000 clean room for electronic component assembly with a length of 10 meters, a width of 8 meters, and a height of 3 meters and a volume of 240 cubic meters, according to an air change rate of 18 times per hour, the supply air volume is 240 × 18 = 4320 cubic meters per hour, ensuring efficient replacement of indoor air and timely discharge of dust particles.
Combined with Cross-Sectional Wind Speed
In unidirectional flow clean rooms (such as the chip lithography area), the control of cross-sectional wind speed is of great significance. In order to stably carry dust towards the air outlet, industry regulations require that the cross-sectional wind speed of vertical unidirectional flow should be maintained at 0.3 - 0.5 meters per second, and that of horizontal unidirectional flow should be 0.2 - 0.4 meters per second. For example, in a vertical unidirectional flow clean room with a width of 5 meters and a height of 2.5 meters, to achieve a cross-sectional wind speed of 0.4 meters per second, according to the flow formula (air volume = cross-sectional wind speed × cross-sectional area), the supply air volume can be obtained as 0.4 × (5 × 2.5) × 3600 (converting seconds into hours) = 18,000 cubic meters per hour, realizing precise air flow organization and ensuring that key processes are not interfered by dust.
Considering Equipment Heat Dissipation and Ventilation
The operation of large equipment generates heat, which is the "culprit" for temperature fluctuations in clean rooms. In areas with intensive data center server cabinets and laser processing equipment, sufficient supply air volume is needed to dissipate heat and maintain a constant temperature. Through the heat dissipation power of the equipment and the allowable temperature rise range, combined with thermodynamic parameters such as the specific heat capacity of air, calculate the demand for cooling air flow and incorporate it into the planning of the supply air volume. If a single cabinet in a data center dissipates 3 kW of heat, according to the heat balance conversion, about 1000 cubic meters per hour of cold air is required. The supply air volume of the entire clean room should be adjusted according to the number of cabinets to ensure the stable operation of the equipment.
After mastering the essence of the calculation of fresh air volume and supply air volume, in actual operation, it is also necessary to adjust according to local conditions and in a dynamic manner. With the increase in the service life of clean rooms, the replacement of equipment, and the upgrading of processes, the air volume requirements often change.Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd. is equipped with a professional technical team that is proficient not only in theoretical algorithms but also capable of on-site surveys, simulation and optimization. We will escort your projects from planning to operation and maintenance, customize clean air solutions for you, and help your dust-free clean rooms always maintain their "vitality" and meet the stringent requirements of industrial upgrading.

Fire Protection Standards for the Purification and Decoration of Aseptic Operating Rooms
In the field of medical architecture, aseptic operating rooms are the "core areas" of hospitals, which are related to the lives and the success or failure of surgeries of countless patients. Besides meeting the strict requirements for aseptic purification, fire safety can never be slackened in the slightest. Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd., which has been deeply engaged in the purification industry for many years, will analyze in depth the fire protection standards for the purification and decoration of aseptic operating rooms for you today, helping you create a safe and efficient surgical environment.
Flame Retardant Building Materials Come First
The walls and ceilings of aseptic operating rooms usually choose materials with a fireproof rating of Class A, such as metal composite panels and ice-fire panels. Metal composite panels have metal thin sheets as the surface layer, and the core materials are flame-retardant and heat-insulating. When encountering an open flame, they can effectively prevent the spread of fire. Ice-fire panels combine antibacterial, moisture-proof and excellent fireproof properties. Even in a high-temperature environment, they will not burn easily or release harmful thick smoke, thus buying precious escape time for medical staff and patients. The floor materials are mostly anti-static and fireproof rubber floors or PVC floors with a fireproof rating of no less than Class B1. While being wear-resistant and anti-slip, they will only slowly carbonize when encountering fire instead of forming flowing fire, reducing the chaos at the fire scene.
Safe Wiring of the Electrical System
There are numerous electrical appliances in operating rooms, including lighting fixtures, surgical instrument power supplies, and monitoring equipment, with different power levels. The electrical lines must use low-smoke, halogen-free, flame-retardant wires and cables, and the cable trays and trunking should also have fireproof functions. The laying of lines should avoid areas with high temperature, humidity and easy collision, and it is strictly prohibited to connect wires randomly. Sockets and switches should be equipped with fireproof covers to prevent electric sparks from igniting surrounding flammable materials. In addition, the uninterruptible power supply (UPS), as the guarantee of emergency power supply, should be placed in an independent fireproof compartment to avoid the fire caused by overheating of batteries spreading to the main body of the operating room. The whole process is carefully constructed by professional electrical engineers in accordance with fire protection regulations to strictly guard the "fire prevention pass" of the electrical system.
Precise Layout of Fire Protection Facilities
The fire extinguishing system is the key defense line for fire protection in operating rooms. Clean gas fire extinguishing systems, such as heptafluoropropane, have become the first choice due to their advantages of being clean, efficient and residue-free. The sprinkler heads are precisely distributed to ensure that the extinguishing agent can quickly cover key equipment and flammable areas in the early stage of a fire and suppress the fire. Meanwhile, indoor fire hydrants cannot be absent. The diameter and water pressure of them should meet the fire protection requirements. They are equipped with fire hoses and nozzles, which are conspicuous and easy to access. No sundries are allowed to be piled up around them. Manual alarm buttons, smoke detectors and heat detectors should cover all directions to form a sensitive "early warning network", detect the fire at the first time and transmit the information to the fire control center, and then link with the audible and visual alarms to guide personnel to evacuate.
Efficient Coordination of Ventilation and Smoke Exhaust
The purification air-conditioning system is responsible for adjusting the temperature and humidity and maintaining the cleanliness of the air, and it is also crucial in terms of fire protection. The fresh air and return air ducts should adopt fireproof ducts. When crossing fire compartments, fire dampers should be installed, which will automatically close when the temperature is too high to prevent the spread of fire and smoke. The smoke exhaust system is independent of the air-conditioning and ventilation system. The smoke exhaust fans have sufficient smoke exhaust capacity, and the smoke exhaust outlets are reasonably distributed. In case of a fire, they can timely discharge thick smoke, reduce the indoor smoke concentration, and cooperate with emergency lighting and evacuation indication signs to illuminate and guide the evacuation route, ensuring that medical staff and patients can evacuate safely under visible conditions.
Regular Daily Maintenance and Emergency Drills
The completion of high-standard decoration is just the beginning. Regular maintenance of fire protection facilities is indispensable. Check the pressure and validity period of fire extinguishers every month; test the sensitivity of the fire alarm system quarterly; conduct a comprehensive annual inspection on the performance of gas fire extinguishing and ventilation and smoke exhaust systems, and replace aging components in a timely manner. Hospitals should also cooperate with the fire department and the professional team of Guangzhou Kunling Purification Equipment Co., Ltd. to regularly carry out fire emergency drills for operating rooms, simulate fire scenes, improve the emergency response process of medical staff, and enhance the ability of all personnel to save themselves, help each other and evacuate, so that the theoretical standards can be implemented into practical effectiveness.
Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd. adheres to a professional and rigorous attitude and strictly adheres to the fire protection standards for aseptic operating rooms from design to construction and operation and maintenance.
