Clariant developing next-gen ammonia cracking catalysts to support the global hydrogen revolution
Clariant Catalysts’ role in the so-called “green hydrogen revolution” continues to grow. The company is now participating in Germany’s prestigious TransHyDE project AmmoRef, which is tasked to develop process technologies and catalysts for ammonia cracking to facilitate future hydrogen transport, also for large distances. With €14 million in funding from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), AmmoRef is part of the overarching 135-million-euro TransHyDE project, which aims to revolutionize the nation’s hydrogen transport infrastructure in preparation for a sweeping energy transition. TransHyDE is one of three hydrogen flagship projects aiming to prepare Germany’s entry into a hydrogen economy.

SABIC pioneers with new LNP™ ELCRIN™ iQ compounds using pre-consumer recycled glass fiber to accelerate carbon neutrality
SABIC, a global leader in the chemical industry, launched today new LNP™ ELCRIN™ WF006XXPiQ compound and LNP ELCRIN WF0061XPiQ compound, the first two grades in a new portfolio of materials that incorporate pre-consumer recycled glass fiber diverted from the waste stream of industrial processes. These polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) compounds, each reinforced with 30 percent pre-consumer recycled short glass fiber, offer mechanical properties and color equivalency of ELCRIN iQ grades that use virgin glass fiber reinforcement. This new technology further decreases the carbon footprint of ELCRIN iQ materials, which already support the circular economy and help reduce plastic waste by using upcycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) from discarded water bottles.

Une nouvelle étude de SABIC sur les custodes arrière met en évidence les avantages d’intégration, de style et d’aérodynamisme de la résine LEXAN™
SABIC, une des premières entreprises mondiales du secteur de la chimie, a annoncé ce jour les résultats d’une récente étude portant sur les avantages distinctifs que pouvaient apporter les résines de polycarbonate (PC) LEXAN™ pour la conception des custodes arrière en termes de style, de réduction du nombre de composants, d’intégration de fonctions et d’amélioration de l’aérodynamisme des véhicules. L’étude a mis en lumière de nombreuses possibilités d’augmenter notablement la latitude de conception, de maîtriser les coûts et de réduire les poids en remplaçant le verre traditionnellement utilisé par des résines LEXAN transparentes et résistantes à l’impact. Menée par des stylistes et des ingénieurs SABIC, cette étude s’est appuyée sur les décennies d’expérience approfondie de la société dans le domaine des technologies de vitrage des automobiles. Outre les custodes arrière, l’équipe SABIC a déjà conçu des modèles de fenêtres arrière et peut s’appuyer sur les données ainsi obtenues pour établir la faisabilité de ces designs de custode et utiliser des méthodes de mise en œuvre et des opérations secondaires qui ont déjà fait leurs preuves.
