On February 11, the 50kt/year nylon 66 plant of nylon new material project phase I of China Chemical Tianchen Qixiang New Materials Co., Ltd., has successfully commenced and yielded the first batch of high-grade products, said Ccfgroup.
This is another successful start-up of Tianchen Qixiang following the startup of acrylonitrile, hexanediamine (HMDA) and adionitrile (ADN), which marks the comprehensive formation of the complete industrial chain system of the first phase of Tianchen Qixiang nylon new material industrial base. It has laid a more solid foundation for the industrial chain and cluster development of high-end nylon new materials.
In the next step, Tianchen Qixiang will continue to focus on solving the problems of "lack of core technology and raw materials" in the field of new materials and new energy, and insist on new chemical materials, special nylon and other chemicals with high technical threshold, engineering plastics, high-performance fibers and other materials, and continue to expand into the field of high value-added products in the chemical industry.
We remind, Toray has announced that it has developed technology to create a recycled nylon 66 recovered from discarded silicone-coated airbags offering the same flowability and mechanical properties as virgin nylon 66 injection moulding grades. Airbag fabric can be coated or non-coated with silicone. Recycling of the non-coated fabric is common practice; Refinverse was the first in Japan to achieve commercial-scale silicone-coated fabric recycling. It strips the silicone from airbag fabric scrap cuttings, after which these are washed.
