Scientific research achievements and awards
Through exploration and practice for over 20 years, Liu put forward the creative pesticide innovation technology “intermediate derivatization method”, which cannot only break through foreign patent monopoly, but also greatly improve the success rate of product innovation, with remarkable effects. In this innovation technology or method formation and application process, Liu invented several tens of compounds with high activity, involving bactericide, insecticide, acaricide, herbicide fields, such as pyrimidinamine bactericides, their toxicity is lower than that of salt, which cannot only break the difficulty in toxicity for half of century internationally, but also bring very competitive cost performance. As of February 2017, the New Medicine Discovery & Research Lab has applied over 320 domestic and foreign invention patents, and over 200 authorized patents (inclusive of over 80 American, European, Japanese patents, etc.). One of them granted the Gold Prize of the 7th China Invention Patent Award, two granted the Excellence of the 15th and 16th China Invention Patent Award.
4 novel pesticide varieties discovered and registered in China: flumorph, pyraoxystrobin, coumoxystrobin, pyrametostrobin; flumorph is the first pesticide variety with proprietary intellectual property right in China, and meanwhile granted Chinese, American and European invention patents, and won the Second Prize of National Technological Invention, the First Prize of China Petrochemical Technological Invention, and other awards; Research and Industrialization on Green Production Technology and Application Technology of Bactericide Flumorph won the First Prize of Scientific and Technological Progress Award of 2013 China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation, and the Second Prize of Liaoning Provincial Technology Progress in 2014; Discovery and Industrialization of Efficient Agricultural Fungicide Pyraoxystrobin won the First Prize of Technological Invention Award of China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation, the First Prize of Shenyang Scientific and Technological Progress Award in 2014, the First Prize of the 7th Chinese Pesticide Innovation Contribution Award in 2014 and the First Prize of Liaoning Provincial Technological Invention Award in 2015; won the innovation team award of China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation in 2016.
Shenyang “Ten Outstanding Young Intellectuals” (1997); State Council Special Allowance (2000); award nomination of the top “Ten Outstanding Young Men” from central enterprises (2002); 8th Science and Technology Award for Chinese Youth (2004); National Excellent Scientific and Technological Workers (2005); the Candidate for “the New Century National Hundred Thousand-and-Ten Thousand Talents Project (2007); National “Outstanding Professional and Technical Personnel” (2009); Venture Model of Sinochem Group (2011); Hou Debang Chemical Science and Technology Award (2012); National Excellent Scientific and Technical Worker (2012); Excellent Expert in Liaoning Province (2013); Excellent Expert in Liaoning Province (2013); won multiple honorary titles, such as model worker, advanced individual in Liaoning Province, Shenyang City and Shenyang Research Institute of Chemical Industry.
