Nouryon (formerly AkzoNobel Specialty Chemicals) has more than doubled capacity for emulsion-based organic peroxides at its site in Los Reyes, Mexico to meet increased customer demand in the North American polyvinyl chloride (PVC) market. The company introduced emulsion-based peroxides to the North American market in 2018. Used for manufacturing PVC – a plastic used in a wide variety of products including pipes, doors, windows and home siding – these alternatives to solvent-based peroxides are inherently safer while also improving product quality. Emulsion-based peroxides are safer than traditional solvent-based peroxides according to Nouryon. “We are pleased that customers are attracted to the benefits of emulsions for PVC production,” said Johan Landfors, Managing Director Polymer Chemistry at Nouryon. “We have expanded production capacity quickly to meet demand and are ready to build more capacity to grow with our customers in the future.” Emulsion-based peroxides also play a key role in Nouryon’s patented continuous initiator dosing (CiD) technology, which allows PVC producers to increase reactor output by up to 40 percent with minimum capital expenditure. The Los Reyes expansion is the latest in a series of investments by Nouryon to better serve and grow with its customers in the polymer market. Another expansion project in Mexico is due to be completed this year and additional capacity is also scheduled to come online in Brazil, China, and India. “Organic peroxides often decompose at very low temperatures, which can lead to combustion when not stored or handled properly,” explains Rob van de Graaf, Director of Sales, Americas - Polymer Chemistry. “Emulsions contain water, significantly reducing the chance of combustion, and increasing the safety of transport, storage and handling. The improved safety characteristics also allow for bulk storage and fully automated handling, reducing the risk of manual operation mishaps. The flooded Arkema organic peroxides plant in Crosby, Texas, where explosions occurred due to flooding, loss of electricity and refrigeration in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey in 2017. (Source: ABC News) The instability of organic peroxides can result in dire consequences if they are improperly handled. They must be stored at low temperature, typically at 10°C below the self-accelerating decomposition temperature (SADT). When flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey in August 2017 cut off power at the Crosby, Texas organic peroxides plant of Arkema and destroyed the plant’s electrical systems and backup, loss of refrigeration systems for an “extended” period of time meant workers had to abandon the plant and allow uncontrolled explosions take place and the peroxides combust. A perimeter of 1.5 miles around the plant was evacuated due to the hazard. Emulsion-based peroxides also contain an anti-freeze agent, preventing the ice crystal formation that sometimes occurs in solvent-based solutions, which can affect the feeding of initiator to the polymerization reaction. This also improves the product quality of the finished PVC product. “European PVC manufacturers are already using our emulsion-based organic peroxides. With the introduction to the US, we believe our customers there will realize the same benefits and we are confident that the organic peroxide emulsion market will continue to grow,” says Johan Landfors, Member of the Executive Committee responsible for Polymer Chemistry. Emulsion-based peroxides are also used in Nouryon’s Continuous Initiator Dosing (CiD) technology. With CiD, heat production in a PVC reactor is controlled by the dosing of the peroxide during the polymerization process. This optimizes cooling capacity and reduces batch time by 20 to 40 percent, leading to an increase in overall capacity. It also further improves the PVC polymerization safety by being able to stop the polymerization reaction at any moment, thus preventing run-away reactions. Source: plasticstoday.com
Evonik’s new polyamide (PA) 6 powder features high mechanical strength as well as excellent chemical and temperature resistance. Its heat deflection temperature (HDT B) is around 195°C. Moreover, the powder material features low water absorption – below 3 percent — which has a positive effect on processability in 3D printing and the dimensional stability of printed 3D components. “New, ready-to-use materials that are optimally adapted to the individual printer and expand the range of application to higher temperatures move the 3D printing industry one step further toward series production,” says Mark Zhao, founder and CEO of TPM 3D, a Chinese selective laser sintering (SLS) machine OEM. “We are seeing strong demand for 3D solutions in the higher temperature range – for example in the automotive and electronics industries. That’s why we were pleased to launch the new temperature-stable material together with Evonik.” The new polymer powder in Evonik's PA 6 series with its nearly round grain shape stands out for excellent flowability and application properties, making it suitable for all powder-based 3D printing technologies. A proprietary procedure of Evonik is employed to produce the high-temperature material at the company’s Marl site. The 3D printing market is booming, posting double-digit growth rates. Evonik is a leader in the production of PA 12 powders, which have been used in additive manufacturing technologies for over 20 years. In addition to polyetheretherketone (PEEK) filament and PA 12 powders, the company's product portfolio includes flexible polyether block amide (PEBA) powders as well as a full range of additives such as dispersion agents, flow improvers or reactive modifiers.

The 2019 edition of BP’s Energy Outlook raises some interesting environmental outcomes if the world transitions to a global ban on single-use plastics, including packaging by 2040. BP’s evolving transition (ET) scenario already assumes that the regulation of plastics tightens more quickly than in the past. But growing concerns about the use of plastics means that regulation of plastics may tighten by even more. The alternative ‘single-use plastics ban’ (SUP ban) scenario drawn up by BP considers a case in which the regulation of plastics is tightened more quickly, culminating in a worldwide ban on the use of plastics for packaging and other single uses from 2040 onwards. These single-use plastics accounted for just over a third of plastic products produced in 2017. In this alternative scenario, formulated by BP from its perspective as an oil producer, the growth in liquid fuels used in the “non-combusted sector” is reduced to just one million barrels/day, which is six million barrels/day lower than in the ET scenario – and the overall growth of liquids demand is limited to four million barrels/day, compared with 10 million barrels/day in the ET scenario. BP does note that the SUP ban scenario does not account for the energy that would consumed to produce the alternative materials — presumably paper, aluminum, steel and other non-fossil fuel-based products whose production is typically much more energy- and resource-intensive; just think of the steel straw — required to replace single-use plastics, and so represents an upper-bound of the impact on liquid fuels. Indeed, without further advances in these alternative materials and widespread deployment of efficient collection and reuse systems, BP notes that a plastics ban could lead to an increase in overall energy demand and consequently higher carbon emissions, and raise a number of other environmental concerns, such as increasing food waste. The BP report suggests that industry and consumers need to accept plastic packaging as a key player in combating climate change and minimizing food wastage. Rather than an outright ban on single-use plastics and packaging, the world needs to adopt a holistic approach centered on establishing recycling systems worldwide, increasing the recycled content in food packaging, putting in place infrastructure such as sewage systems in developing countries that would play a role in reducing the flow of plastics and other waste into river systems and the oceans, and considering bio-based plastics where appropriate.
