While industry has in the past concentrated on the functional improvement of PE, the focus of development now is on sustainability, recycling, and reduction of CO2 emissions. Note de contenu : - Range of suppliers - Feedstock prices and production costs dictate choice of production site - China is changing from a consumer to a producer - Why China is gaining importance - Durable applications are increasing - Market opportunities in the pipe sector - Power transmission and new regulations - The classic pyramid : reduce, reuse, recycle - Mechanical and chemical recycilng are gaining importance - CO2 balance and renewable resources - Figure : One of the most important applications for HDPE is impact-resistant pipelines. Here, durable polyethylene is replacing less reliable materials such as cast iron or concrete - Fig. 1 : Global PE demand and average annual growth rates by 2023. For a growth rate of 4%, nearly ten new world-scale production plants are required - Fig. 2 : Global PE demand by region - Fig. 3 : Global PE capacities in 2018, broken down by the most important variants. LDPE capacities will not rise so sharply. The greatest increase is forecast for HDPE - Fig. 4 : Capacities of the most important PE grades by region (forecast for 2023 based on contracts already agreed). China, in particular, is expected to undergo almost explosive growth in the upcoming years - Fig. 5 : Global PE demand by segment shows the growth in the pipes and profiles sector En ligne : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tgg_XhA2W5VWGgFUO448IzXtOtlrcZh0/view?usp=drive [...] Format de la ressource électronique : Pdf Permalink : https://e-campus.itech.fr/pmb/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=33784 [article]

Resilient through changing markets / Ugur Akgün in KUNSTSTOFFE INTERNATIONAL, Vol. 112, N° 8 (2022)  

[article]  inKUNSTSTOFFE INTERNATIONAL > Vol. 112, N° 8 (2022) . - p. 12-18 Titre : Resilient through changing markets : Polyethylene (PE) : Shapint new trends in power generation and packaging Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ugur Akgün, Auteur ; Michael Berger, Auteur ; Patrik Schneider, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : p. 12-18 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Energie Études de marché Matières plastiques -- Applications industrielles Matières plastiques -- Industrie et commerce Matières plastiques -- Recyclage Polyéthylène Recyclage chimique Index. décimale : 668.4 Plastiques, vinyles Résumé : Since its invention, polyethylene (PE) has created new areas of application, replaced other materials in their traditional functions and continuously shifted its own limits of use. This has made PE the most widely used plastic in the world, with 115 million t consumed annually. Consumption and manufacturing capacities are growing most in North America and China. In Europe, companies are working on specific paths. Note de contenu : - Two world regions are dominating growth - 13 million tons of new capacity - High usage of recyclates through improved sorting and cleaning - Chemical recycling - the next step towards a closed-loop economy - Pioneer Europe - Trenchless laying for the energy turnaround - Suitable for hydrogen - Packaging - Tethered caps and mono-materials - Polyethylene - a material for the future En ligne : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DdLhmY9kC9zITNbmBh8TI2gPQ7TN67EU/view?usp=drive [...] Format de la ressource électronique : Pdf Permalink : https://e-campus.itech.fr/pmb/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=38679 [article]

Strong in medicine and sanitary applications / Michael Berger in KUNSTSTOFFE INTERNATIONAL, Vol. 110, N° 8 (2020)  

[article]  inKUNSTSTOFFE INTERNATIONAL > Vol. 110, N° 8 (2020) . - p. 6-10 Titre : Strong in medicine and sanitary applications : Polyethylene (PE) Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Michael Berger, Auteur ; Peter Bisson, Auteur ; Volker Lackner, Auteur ; Bernd Marczinke, Auteur ; Patrik Schneider, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : p. 6-10 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Aliments -- Conservation Hygiène Matières plastiques -- Applications industrielles Matières plastiques -- Recyclage Polyéthylène Polymères en médecine Index. décimale : 668.4 Plastiques, vinyles Résumé : In recent years, society’s view of plastics has shifted. The actual material advantages have been overshadowed by the plastics waste debate. Uncommon times, such as the Covid-19 pandemic, remind society of the outstanding contribution of plastics materials. Polyethylene is particularly strong in medical and hygiene applications. Note de contenu : - Packaging made from renewable resources - Conflicting goals and preferences - Protection for sensitive glass fibers - Mechanical or chemical recycling ? - Figure : PE ensures costs and weight savings in medical technology. For containers, the material also facilitates sterilization - Fig. 1 : The importance of the shelf life of food products became more important again during the corona crisis. Plastics such as PE make an important contribution as packaging material and prevent food waste - Fig. 2 : For hygiene products such as tampons and bandages, pleasant and at the same time inconspicuous packaging is required. Due to the increasing mobility of many people, the demand for individually packaged product is also growing - Fig. 3 : PE is increasingly used for drinking water supply pipes. The plastic is particularly in demand in countries with a high proportion of chemicals used to kill germs in drinking water - Fig. 4 : Due to the increasing demands on data rates and volumes, fiber optic networks are becoming more and more widespread. Microducts made of HDPE are suitable for protecting the sensitive fibers - Fig. 5 : Depending on the original application, both mechanical and chemical recycling of PE waste is possible En ligne : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Kx6BGtAAA77PL5K9zYD2XgDtphK2SDRG/view?usp=drive [...] Format de la ressource électronique : Pdf Permalink : https://e-campus.itech.fr/pmb/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=34630 [article]
