Van 28 tot en met 30 maart vindt in het MECC te Maastricht de beurs UTECH Europe plaats. UTECH Europe is een internationale beurs voor de polyuretaan industrie.

Zo worden polyurethanen onder andere tot harsen, schuimen, elastomeren, kitten, lijmen en lakken verwerkt. Schoenzolen, autozittingen en de isolatie van een koelkast – overal zit polyurethaan in.

Pipe industry benefits from unique Borealis injection moulding grade for PE100 fittings
Borealis has launched Borstar® HE3490-IM, a unique polyethylene (PE) grade specifically for the injection moulding of PE100 pressure pipe fittings. This solution provides the fitting manufacturers with a better alternative to the extrusion materials which they currently use – a material that combines the higher pressure performance of a PE100 material with the processing friendliness of a PE80. The whole value chain from fittings manufacturer to pipe producer, contractor and pipeline owner will benefit from the greater consistency in overall quality and performance achieved with this grade.
