About Yasheng Group’s Lead Inventor Shuting Zhang: Shuting Zhang is an esteemed entrepreneur and inventor with a rich history of groundbreaking innovations. In 1988, he embarked on his entrepreneurial journey, leaving a state-owned enterprise to start his own business. By 1989, Zhang invented a thermally conductive insulation pad that revolutionized electronic product safety by balancing heat dissipation and preventing burnout.
His notable inventions include a nitrogen leak device in 1991 that significantly extended the lifespan of ultra-high voltage switch mechanisms and the SF6 density relay in 1992, which eliminated malignant explosion risks in high voltage equipment. Zhang holds multiple patents, including a bimetallic SF6 density relay (1997) and a double-tube SF6 density relay (2002). His innovations have earned national recognition, such as the National Key New Product Award in 2006.
In recent years, Zhang has continued to push technological boundaries, securing a national invention patent in 2024 for significant advancements in core technical indicators, lifespan, and reliability of his inventions. His manual production line has improved efficiency by over 100 times, with ongoing developments to incorporate automated robotics.
Zhang's contributions to the field are documented in the "SF6 Circuit Breaker Skills Training Manual" (2003) and the national industry standard "General Technical Conditions for SF6 Gas Density Relays and Density Meters" (2006). His leadership and innovation have been recognized by key political figures, including a visit from then-Party and state leader Jiang Zemin in 2003.

About Kronos Advanced Technologies Inc.
The Company was initially founded in 2002 and funded by the U.S. military to develop electrostatic air movers. Kronos Advanced Technologies Inc. filed about 50 patent applications in the past and had total of 25 issued patents. These patents encompass a range of technologies primarily focused on air movement, filtration, and purification systems. The company, known for its innovations in air movement and filtration technologies, has an extensive patent portfolio that reflects its focus on advanced consumer electronics and medical-grade air purification products. Eventually, the Company moved into the consumer air purification business. It began operations as a product development company that invented and significantly changed how air is moved, filtered, and sterilized. Historically, Kronos has focused on developing, marketing, and selling the Company's proprietary air movement and purification technology. Serving the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) market, Kronos technology uses state-of-the-art high-voltage patented processes without the use of traditional porous HEPA filters. Kronos-based products move air silently, filter, sterilize, and purify the air while dramatically reducing energy consumption to half of a 60-watt light bulb.
Kronos devices can be variable in shape or size and, therefore, have the potential to be scaled down for air purification in cars or scaled up in size for industrial and hazardous gas destruction. The technology is currently being implemented in multiple standalone products for businesses, homes, and vehicles of all types -to move, sterilize and filter air, including removing allergens down to 14.6 nanometers, passing through our patented technology -replacing expensive outdated passive HEPA and other filtration type systems. There are broad ranges of additional markets for standalone and embedded Kronos CORE technology-based devices. Examples of immediately addressable markets include schools, universities, healthcare facilities, operating rooms, manufacturing clean rooms, and the cabins of automobiles and commercial aircraft.
Kronos published research about the effectiveness of Kronos Patented technology on air disinfection n (e.g., microorganism destruction) by demonstrating the high efficacy of Kronos® Technology-based air purifiers in capturing and destruction of various types of microorganisms (including Corona Viruses) in different environmental settings back in 2008. Results of this research showed that Electrostatic Air Filtration and Purification systems based on Kronos technology demonstrated high capturing and destruction efficiency for different types of microorganisms, bacteria, and viruses, and can be successfully used for disinfection of air in real word environmental settings, including hospital facilities both with and without the presence of people.
BusinessWeek called Kronos air purifiers "VIRUS KILLER" in 2005.
