Helping the development of the wind energy industry Covestro won the 2021 JEC Composites Innovation Award

Huhuhu~

The summer heat rolls in

Come together, the wind farm is cool

With innovative solutions for the wind energy industry

Covestro has won another award-

JEC Composites Innovation Award

"Sustainable Development" category

JEC Composites Innovation Award

For 25 years, the JEC Innovation Award has been a leading award in the development and application of global composite materials.

Covestro award-winning cases

The polyurethane infusion resin used by Covestro for the efficient production of wind turbine blades and the coating of offshore wind turbines were approved by the jury

In China, we actively implement the innovative strategy of "in China, for the world", and jointly develop the application of polyurethane resin and polyurethane coatings on wind turbine blades through the cooperation of the entire industry chain

Contribute to the growth of the global wind energy industry

Polyurethane coating system solutions

Covestro’s innovative coating solutions mainly include: a solvent-free gel coat coating, a water-based two-component topcoat and a polyaspartic acid-based leading edge protective coating

Polyurethane infusion resin

Covestro polyurethane resins can reduce the overall cost of wind turbines by improving energy efficiency and reducing manufacturing and maintenance costs

Low viscosity at room temperature and high reactivity at high temperature

Let it be in actual scale prototyping

Reveal the ability to quickly infuse and cure

Greatly shorten the production cycle of the blade

Polyurethane resin has excellent mechanical properties

In terms of reducing weight and improving blade strength

Also has great potential

Properly scored players
