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.

Un nuovo studio SABIC sui finestrini posteriori mette in evidenza il valore della resina LEXAN™ per l’integrazione delle funzioni, lo stile e l'aerodinamica
SABIC, un leader mondiale nel settore chimico, ha annunciato oggi i risultati di un recente studio sulla progettazione dei finestrini posteriori delle automobili, che ha esaminato i diversi vantaggi delle resine di policarbonato (PC) LEXAN™ per differenziare lo stile, consolidare i componenti, integrare le funzioni e migliorare l'aerodinamica. Questi concetti rivelano nuove e molteplici opportunità per ampliare significativamente la libertà progettuale, controllare i costi e ridurre il peso sostituendo il vetro tradizionale con le resine LEXAN trasparenti e resistenti agli urti. Lo studio dettagliato, condotto da progettisti e ingegneri SABIC, si basa sulla profonda e decennale storia dell'azienda nella tecnologia delle vetrature automobilistiche. Oltre ai finestrini dei quarti posteriori, il team SABIC ha prodotto concetti di design eleganti per i finestrini laterali posteriori. Sono disponibili dati a sostegno della fattibilità di questi progetti, tutti in grado di utilizzare metodi di lavorazione e operazioni secondarie ben consolidate.
