    [ Hot Focus on Chemical Machinery and Equipment Network ] On the skiing field of each Winter Olympics, there will be new records broken
    .
    This is not only due to the results of the athletes' hard training, but also the continuous innovation and upgrading of sports equipment
    .
    If you want to be faster, higher and stronger, the premise is that the skis are "light" enough
    .

     
    Chemical machinery and equipment network hot spots
    Most of the early snowboards were made of wood, but the wooden snowboards with low strength in the volatile and torsional state soon became the "bottleneck" restricting performance breakthroughs
    .
    After a round of innovative research and development, snowboards based on thermoplastic composite materials came into being.
    Its light weight, high flexibility and stable performance "physical qualities" help athletes conquer more mountains
    .

     

    KraussMaffei is also well versed in improving the production technology of composite snowboards
    .
    Using the fiberForm process (the combination of thermoforming technology and injection molding) to produce a fiber matrix core board, and then wrapping a layer of polyurethane on the outer layer of the core board through polyurethane reaction molding technology, a lightweight, stable and extremely safe ski can be produced.
    On the premise of protecting the health of athletes, help them set a world record
    .

     

    This is not "bragging about the sea".
    The "care" of plastics for sports such as skiing and skating has already begun when the venue is built
    .
    In order to avoid the melting of ice and snow, the performance of the stadium insulation material is extremely important
    .
    For the selection of insulation board, we should consider the density, thermal conductivity, fire resistance and other aspects
    .
    Among the thousands of choices, the polyurethane insulation board can be regarded as an auxiliary for ice and snow stadiums
    .

     

      As a manufacturer of plastics production equipment, KraussMaffei reaction molding technology has extensive market experience in the production of polyurethane insulation panels
    .

     

      Insulation board production equipment
     

      KraussMaffei reaction molding technology: high equipment precision improves material utilization; product performance is stable and flexible; easy maintenance, low maintenance cost can produce complex structural profiles; high efficiency, energy saving and environmental protection improve efficiency and reduce costs; provide customized solutions
    .

     

      Along with the Winter Olympics, there are also various green and low-carbon environmental protection technologies
    .
    In order to dedicate a green Winter Olympics to the world, biodegradable tableware officially entered the Olympic table
    .

     

      The starch extracted from crops such as corn, sweet potato and sorghum is processed by blending and modification, and transformed into a green and environmentally friendly biodegradable tableware
    .

     

      However, in the "transformation" process of biodegradable plastics, a series of challenges have also been encountered
    .
    But with the addition of KraussMaffei's Gold Power twin-screw extruder solution, all problems are solved
    .

     

      This series of products can provide a variety of screw diameters and sizes for users to choose from, suitable for various applications and production ranges, and can solve various blending challenges for customers: it can be used for on-line gelatinization of native starch, which can reduce 10 % material cost; at the same time, the high specific torque design can achieve a 15%~50% increase in production capacity and lower energy consumption; moreover, the lower average shear rate can effectively reduce the melting temperature to achieve high melt strength and ensure particle size.
    quality, and promote the sustainable development of biodegradable plastics
