Liquid Polybutadiene (LPB) is a synthetic rubber with unique structural characteristics, known for its low molecular weight, high reactivity, excellent mechanical properties, and resistance to chemical corrosion. It is widely used in various fields, including coatings, cross-linking agents, electrical insulation…
In September 2024, global chemical giant Trinseo announced the closure of its polycarbonate (PC) production plant in Stade, Germany. Production is expected to cease by January 2025, after which the company plans to source downstream PC compounded products externally, saving…
Methyl methacrylate (MMA) is an important chemical raw material that can undergo self-polymerization or copolymerization with other monomers under heat, light, or in the presence of catalysts. It is a colorless and transparent substance with excellent weather resistance, UV stability,…
CCUS is a rapidly emerging industry that will play a key role in corporate decarbonization strategies. According to global growth consulting firm Sullivan, the CCUS market is expected to grow significantly at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 49.7%…
Extraction separates mixtures based on the differing solubilities of substances in immiscible solvents. The extraction-crystallization process can be understood as the coupling of “extraction” and “crystallization.” Its principles fall into two categories: 1. The interaction between the extractant and solvent…
In industries such as chemical engineering and energy, the journey from innovative concepts to large-scale commercial production is often fraught with challenges. Achieving technological success requires not only rigorous laboratory validation but also ensuring economic feasibility. It is against this…
Compared with other separation processes, melt crystallization offers advantages such as simplicity of operation, low energy consumption, cost efficiency, mild operating conditions, wide applicability, and environmental friendliness. These advantages have facilitated its further development. However, when applied to industrial production,…
A large amount of plastic waste enters the ocean every year, threatening wildlife and harming biodiversity. Additionally, microplastics and plastic microfibers have been found in the air and urban drinking water, causing health and ecological issues. Common but highly…
