Luoyang Petrochemical won the award for environmentally friendly high value-added polypropylene technology

A few days ago, the "development and application of environmentally friendly high value-added polypropylene and nucleating agent technology" independently developed by Luoyang Petrochemical Company won the second prize of Henan Province Science and Technology Progress Award in 2021
.

"At present, the industrial production of environmentally friendly high value-added polypropylene products has been formed, and some products have filled the gap in the application field of high-end non-woven fabrics in China, realizing the goal of developing polypropylene products in the direction of 'high-precision'
.
" Luoyang Cao Yuxin, chief expert of chemical technology of the petrochemical company, said
.
Industry experts believe that environmentally friendly high value-added polypropylene series products have the characteristics of unique molecular structure design, narrow relative molecular mass distribution, short semi-crystallization time, no plasticizers and organotin and other processing and application characteristics, which can meet the market demand for high-tech content.
demand for polypropylene special materials
.

In the past two years, green and low-carbon consumption has become the mainstream.
Optimizing product structure, researching and developing special materials, and increasing the added value of products have become an urgent need to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises
.
After conducting market research, they found that domestic medical, sanitary, chemical separation and other non-woven fabric manufacturers have been using imported raw materials for a long time, and there is no polypropylene special material that can replace imported products in China, so they focus on environmentally friendly high value-added polyester New propylene special material
.

"We have developed a series of environmentally friendly high-value-added high-quality polypropylene products such as PPH-Y35X, PPH-MN15, PPH-MN60, and PPH-MN90B, which are the three high-speed spinning, high rigidity, high flow, low shrinkage and low odor The two low-end, environmentally friendly and high-quality polypropylene products have laid a technical foundation for opening the door to the high-end polypropylene product market
.
" Cao Yuxin said
.

In order to speed up the pace of research and development, the company established Cao Yuxin Expert Studio
.
In the trial production process, they used a new type of catalyst to improve the processing performance and compatibility of the product through the performance comparison test of polypropylene pellets under different catalysts
.

According to Cao Yuxin, the PPH-Y35X and PPH-MN15 products in the high value-added polypropylene series have the characteristics of high orientation, low ash content, high strength and good spinnability
.
Among them, PPH-Y35X product is the only polypropylene resin that can completely replace imported products in China, and has passed the environmental health certification of the United States, Japan, South Korea and the European Union and other countries and regions
.

"Lightweight is one of the key directions for the development of the automobile industry
.
There have always been bottlenecks such as high technical content and difficult development of polypropylene resin materials for automobiles
.
" Cao Yuxin said that in 2014, based on the premise of market research, they launched "Enterprise + Research Institute" cooperation model, and actively carry out research
.
After years of exploration and practice, the company has completed the industrialized production of PPH-MN60, PPH-MN90B and other series of products on a polypropylene plant with an annual output of 140,000 tons, forming an independent development technology
.
Related products are used in automobiles, high-speed rail and other fields, and some products have successfully replaced international famous brands
.

At present, the company is organizing and carrying out technical research on new products with high technical content and high added value, such as special materials for low-carbon emissions, special materials for bio-based modification, and special materials for replacing polystyrene yogurt for continuous cups, and strives to launch the products as soon as possible.
