Piper Plastics Inc. (Chandler, AZ) broke ground on Nov. 13 on its new 90,000-square-foot North American Research and Development Tech Center in Mesa, AZ, which will consolidate the current Chandler and Gilbert, AZ, locations. A subsidiary of Mitsubishi Chemical Corp., Piper Plastics is a global supplier of high-performance polymer materials and precision machined plastic components and assemblies. According to a news item in AzCentral.com, this will be Mitsubishi Chemical’s first advanced materials facility in Arizona, and represents an investment of $10 million. Piper Plastics serves the aerospace, electronics and medical markets, among others. Piper Plastics has developed a proprietary high-pressure molding technology that yields near-net-shape polymers up to 2 inches thick without porosity, voids or sinks, according to information on the company website. The process, which uses molding equipment designed and developed by Piper Plastics, allows the company to mold high-performance thermoplastics, filled or unfilled, with isotropic mechanical properties. One of the company’s materials, KyronMAX, is a structural thermoplastic that Piper Plastics claims outperforms the mechanical strength of long-fiber thermoplastic compounds and bridges the gap between conventional injection moldable filled polymers and expensive lay-up composites. Randy White, President of Piper Plastics and son of the founder of the company, said Piper Plastics will be moving its 135 employees to the new facility once it is operational in June 2019. He also expects to hire additional employees to bring the workforce to a total of 200 people. White told PlasticsToday that while the company is moving to an area that contains a lot of aerospace and electronics companies such as Boeing and Intel, about 50% of the company’s business is in medical devices. “The same PEEK material that we [use for] thick near-net shapes for aerospace and Intel is implantable grade for spinal replacement parts,” said White. “We extrude and injection mold implantable PEEK.” White attributes much of the company’s success to a good employee retention record: Many employees have 30-plus years with the company. “They have a lot of knowledge and that helps,” White said. “We’ve been lucky to enjoy great relationships with customers, as well. They push us to explore new technology because most of the new projects we engage in are customer driven. We perform research and develop technology improvements for actual products for a specific customer, but the R&D investment soon pays for itself in future manufacturing. We all win.” Source: plasticstoday.com Related Articles: Nestlé Waters North America in ‘significant’ rPET agreement Sabic expands PP portfolio with impact copolymer offering aesthetically appealing surfaces
Spot resin trading was challenged this past week as negative sentiment has pushed buyers further away from the market. While overall Polyethylene and Polypropylene levels were only steady to weaker, we did see some consolidation and growing availability of both commodity resin groups at the lower end of their current price ranges. Fresh railcar offers flowed fairly freely and while some sold, it was more common to see the offers accumulate. The sharp discount between spot and contract Polyethylene prices should once again complicate producers’ efforts to implement their average $.03/lb increase in Nov. We expect Polypropylene contracts to decline in the vicinity of a dime, commensurate with the decrease seen in PGP monomer contracts. Weak crude oil markets, which are the key cost driver for international resin, continue to lean on Houston resin prices. Once again, the major energy markets were very volatile and closed sharply in opposite directions. For WTI Crude Oil futures, the most major movement came early in the week with a huge single day drop of $4.24/bbl occurring on Tuesday. The rest of the week saw small gains but did little to offset the losses; January WTI, the new front month futures contract, ended the week down $3.68/bbl to $56.68/bbl. Brent Oil saw similar action and ended the week down $3.42/bbl to $66.76/bbl. Nat Gas futures had massive swings this past week, it was the type of whipsaw trading that has not been seen in years. The Dec futures contract nearly reached $5/mmBtu in parabolic fashion before the market busted on Thursday, giving back a significant portion of the week’s gains. The Dec futures contract still settled at $4.272/mmBtu, scoring a sizable gain of $.553/mmBtu. After an extended period of mounting losses, the NGL market stabilized a week ago, and this week, both Ethane and Propane finally rebounded quite a bit, advancing around 10%. Ethane gained $.034/gal to $.35/gal ($.148/lb). Propane added $.07/gal to $.80/gal ($.226/lb). After several weeks of heightened activity, the pace of monomer trading subsided significantly. The spot Ethylene market was actually quiet, with limited trader interest and few visible transactions. By Friday afternoon, November Ethylene had shaved off only a fraction of a cent, hovering just below $.20/lb. After enduring nearly a full month of losses, Propylene managed to garner a sliver of support in what was otherwise a lackluster trading week. Spot PGP changed hands a couple times at $.46/lb and ticked slightly higher from there, but by Wednesday morning, bids disappeared and interest waned. The market finished the week near $.47/lb, recovering almost $.02/lb. Nov PGP contracts began to settle at $.50/lb, down a full dime, which we feel is appropriate given spot levels. The spot Polyethylene market only trudged along this week; overall deal flow was noticeably subdued and our completed volumes fell below average. Spot prices were mostly steady to lower as resellers continued to sell off inventory and limit fresh purchases following their general desire to de-stock. As such, we have seen a recent trend of resellers securing spot truckloads vs full railcars for their customers’ needs in an effort to better time larger purchases as they anticipate cheaper resin ahead. The same can be said for processors opting to work off material on hand, cautious about replenishing their coffers. These savvy buyers seem to be positioning for special buying opportunities that often occur toward the end of the year. Although there is still an average $.03/lb PE price increase on the table, implementation seems very unlikely, as spot is well discounted to contracts and demand is soft. While PE producers have been stingy with domestic decreases, a growing number of market participants feel that contract price relief is warranted. With Crude Oil continuing to move lower while Natural Gas pushes higher, both in dramatic fashion, North American PE producers are in a rare tough spot as their margins are getting squeezed. If Nat Gas holds this higher level and NGLs recover further, domestic feedstock costs should rise while international Crude driven feedstock costs fall and resin export prices soften. PE export prices will sensibly need to drop in order to move large volumes of incremental resin, maintain the recent level of record exports and keep overly burdensome inventories from developing. Polypropylene trading was challenged this past week as buyers limit their purchases, even as prices fall. While overall PP prices were steady with a negative undertone, resin availability has improved as resellers sought to sell off their uncommitted warehoused material. We expect Nov PP contracts to follow PGP contracts down around $.10/lb, perhaps a tad less, as producers try to expand margins. While spot PP is weak, it has already been well discounted to contracts, and given the generally tight supply / demand dynamics, it might not see the same sharp declines as in contracts. Falling domestic PP prices have largely eliminated the import arbitrage and we anticipate a decrease in speculative imports and in turn, perhaps even tighter PP supplies come January.

At a workshop in 2011 between Vietnam and the UK at the Hoa Lac Hi-tech Park, Dr Duong Ngoc Tu from the Chemistry Institute of the Vietnam Academy of Science & Technology, head of a team of researchers in natural compounds, said there had been no “overall view about turmeric-made product development” at that time. British scientists wanted to uti advanced technologies to develop natural products. And the project on applying comprehensive solutions to develop high-quality products from Curcuma longa implemented by Tu and Prof Robert Edwards from Newcastle University got funding from the UK. To create nano curcumin, one must have curcumin. And to have curcumin, one must have technology, synchronous extractors and have stable material growing area. According to Tu, so as to obtain a high quality product, it is necessary to control the entire production process, from seed to cultivation, harvesting, preliminary processing, to extraction and purification. Therefore, Tu and Edwards decided to implement the project in four phases. The major task in the first phase is optimizing seeds. In second phase, researchers work on the renovation of technology and curcumin refining. After that, in the third phase, they work on the technology on preparing medicine that helps increase the effects of curcumin. The assessment of quality and product commercialization are dealt in the fourth phase. Tu believes that there is no other project in Vietnam which can be implemented in such a comprehensive way as the curcumin project. This is the reason why the project needs 60 scientists from prestigious universities, research centers and institutes from Vietnam and the UK. There are many things that need to be settled. The project is divided into small components and each of group of researchers is in charge of certain components. Since Vietnam’s researchers all have high qualifications who finished prestigious schools overseas, the cooperation between them and British scientists went smoothly. The researchers from the Agriculture Academy and Herbal Medicine Institute, for example, selected the best turmeric varieties from hundreds of samples available in Vietnam, and then together with British scientists analyzed curcumin concentration in each varieties to find the best one. After five years of implementation, outstanding achievements of the projects have been made public. Most importantly, a spinoff that grows, processes and produces curcumin and nano curcumin, Techbifarm, has been established. source: https://english.vietnamnet.vn/ Related Links Frutarom looks to expand market for turmeric formula Turmeric study: curcuminoids are decisive

Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM, Munich, Germany) have been developing a process that uses algae to remove CO2 from the atmosphere and subsequently to make carbon fiber. According to TUM, algae is used to convert CO2 from the atmosphere, power plants or steel processing exhaust into algae oil. In a subsequent step the algae oil is then used to produce polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers, which are then chared using parabolic solar reflectors in order to yield carbon fibers in a CO2-neutral manner. Professor Thomas Brück heads the project along with a team at the Algae Cultivation Center of the Technical University of Munich. According to Brück, large-scale plants are conceivable in Europe and North Africa. "The system is easily scalable to large areas," says Brück. "Plants which together would cover the size of Algeria would offset all CO2 emissions from air transport." According to TUM, the carbon fibers derived from algae are no different from conventional fibers and can be used in existing processes.

MONDAY, Nov. 19, 2018 -- Pacifiers filled with or dipped in honey should not be given to infants, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration says. The agency issued the warning after receiving reports of four infants in Texas who were hospitalized with botulism after using pacifiers containing honey. The pacifiers were bought in Mexico, but similar products can be bought online in the United States. Honey can contain botulism-causing bacteria spores, which can multiply in an infant's immature digestive system, and has been linked to cases of infant botulism. Honey should not be given to infants younger than 12 months, the FDA, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and American Academy of Pediatrics advise.
