Rice bran wax: a sustainable and superior alternative to montan wax
In a world increasingly focused on sustainability, the materials we choose for our products have never been more important. For decades, montan wax has been a staple in the coatings and plastics industries, valued for its performance and cost-effectiveness. However, it's time to rethink our reliance on fossil-based materials like montan wax. Enter rice bran wax - a biobased, renewable option that offers performance comparable to montan wax while minimizing environmental impact.

Clariant’s EnviCat® Green series catalyst chosen for major green ammonia project in China
Clariant, a sustainability-focused specialty chemical company, today announced that a deoxygenation catalyst from its EnviCat Green series was selected for a major green ammonia project in China. The catalyst will be used to remove trace oxygen from green hydrogen produced at the facility, before conversion into green ammonia. Carbon-free production of ammonia greatly reduces the environmental impact of this valuable base chemical needed for vital applications, such as fertilizer production. Green ammonia is also expected to play a key role in the world’s energy transition, offering versatile applications in transportation, power, and hydrogen supply.

Specialized SABIC® PP-UMS foam resin can help reduce vehicle emissions and increase recyclability
SABIC, a global leader in the chemical industry, is spotlighting two diverse transportation applications that demonstrate the potential benefits of SABIC® PP-UMS (Polypropylene – Ultra Melt Strength) foam resin at NPE2024 (Booth #S19005). This distinctive material features high melt strength for outstanding foamability and enables the extrusion of PP foams with very low density, excellent impact resistance and compliance with VDA 278 emissions regulations. SABIC PP-UMS foam resin’s processing versatility allows PP foams, subject to user testing, to be used in structural cores for sandwich panels in delivery vans, trucks and recreational vehicles (RVs), and to provide structural and insulative properties in blow-molded air ducts. Examples of these applications, on display at the SABIC booth, illustrate the suitability of this foam resin for broad use in transportation components that can benefit from significant weight reduction and potential cost optimization.
