Recent Developments:



BASF also positioned VALERAS as an important addition in September 2022 to its plastic additives range when it debuted the product in September last year. The company says that VALERAS enhances plastic applications through sustainable benefits provided by innovative technical solutions and services that help realize a circular economy while achieving carbon neutrality. This broad offering includes various antioxidants and light stabilizers.

In March 2022 last year, BASF announced plans to increase production capacity for hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) at facilities in Italy and Germany. These agents play a critical role in protecting plastics from UV radiation-induced degradation caused by free radicals; they are used extensively across many industries where long-lasting outdoor exposure can occur. HALS like Tinuvin from BASF act as useful UV absorbers, preventing radical-induced degradation reactions within polymers, thus prolonging their lifetime under sunlight exposure. In January, Songwon Industrial partnered with Omya AG which provides marketing and sales, customer services as well as logistical support for Songwon's complete range of PVC additives throughout the Latin American region.

In January 2021, BASF SE introduced a portfolio brand name for plastic additives that consistently meets customer requirements while also considering their needs regarding sustainability.


BASF introduced VALERAS in September 2022 which supplements their existing portfolio of plastic additives. The concept behind Valeras enables plastics to become eco-friendly through innovative technical solutions and services supporting the transition towards a circular economy, thereby achieving net-zero emission goals. Additionally, this all-inclusive offer includes various antioxidants & light stabilizers.


At InnoTrans 2022, held in Berlin, Germany, on September 7th, SABIC unveiled LNP THERMOCOMP AM DC0041XA51 compound specifically developed for pellet-fed additive manufacturing (PFAM/) as a flame-retardant carbon fiber-reinforced substance that meets the requirements of EU and US Rail for fire performance.


BASF’s Ultramid® polyamide was optimized in June 2022; this allowed a more environmentally friendly painting process for automotive parts.


In June 2022, Evonik presented POLYVEST® eCO, sustainable liquid polybutadienes.


BASF announced its plan to increase the production capacity of hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) at facilities in Germany and Italy in March 2022. HALS such as Tinuvin, Chimassorb, and Uvinul from BASF are critical stabilizers in plastics and polymers. These HALS products help shield polymers from UV radiation damage and effectively check free radical-initiated degradation.
