Shanghai, May 19, 2015 - Clariant, a world leader in specialty chemicals, will participate in Chinaplas 2015, the largest plastics and rubber trade fair in Asia, with its special feature on sustainability-driven products and solutions dedicated to growing needs in the plastic industry for sustainable development.
Innovation driven by sustainability
With rising concern on product safety and environmental impact, new legislation and regulations are being rolled out in the international as well as in local markets in China. The use of harmful substances is restricted and energy consumption during manufacturing constrained in order to foster more sustainable development of the chemical industry. To echo this new trend, Clariant offers a host of innovative products and solutions driven by the rising call for sustainability.
"As a leading specialty chemicals company, we feel we are uniquely positioned to be able to create added value through sustainability and innovation for our customers and our shareholders, and for our employees and society. We also want to make our sustainability performance more visible to customers," says Mathias Lütgendorf, Clariant's Executive Committee Member.
At Chinaplas 2015, Clariant will feature the products with sustainability profile for the plastic industry in China.
The HiFormer® Liquid Masterbatches System, for instance, delivers the right mix of consultancy, engineering and chemistry to deliver world class performance, flexibility and excellence. The system is designed to enhance product properties and process parameters for Clariant's customers and fulfill their international service needs. In addition to the improved efficiency of the manufacturing process, the liquid masterbatches are highly concentrated, so that less is needed to achieve brilliant, vibrant hues.
The new-generation HYDROCEROL®, on the other hand, creates a finer, more durable foam-cell structure that allows manufacturers to achieve surface quality and mass reduction of between 5 and 20%. With HYDROCEROL chemical foaming and nucleating agents, Clariant customers enjoy the benefits of weight reduction and raw material savings among other key product benefits.
AddWorks® polymer additives solutions are designed to address application-specific and broader cross-segment needs of the plastics industry. By offering high performance solutions that can reduce energy consumption during plastics manufacturing, or that show low VOC profile, AddWorks Polymer Additives solutions succeed in combining performance with sustainability.
Clariant's Licocene®, which reached the final round of the prestigious German business innovation award, is a polyolefin-based wax recognized for advancing sustainability in textiles, plastics and coatings manufacturing. They allow for the use of fewer ingredients, manufacturing steps, and are therefore able to support more sustainable processing in energy-intensive sectors, such as manufacture of masterbatches and engineering plastics.
EcoTain label highlights products with best-in-class sustainability and performance excellence Another focus of Clariant's sustainability commitment at Chinaplas is the introduction of the company's own EcoTain label, which is now being rolled out company-wide across all business units. The sustainability excellence label readily differentiates Clariant products through a well-defined screening using 36 sustainability criteria, taking into account social, performance and environmental factors. EcoTain® products support actively the sustainability efforts of Clariant's customers, without compromising on performance. Clariant assigns its flagship EcoTain label to those products showing best-in-class sustainability and performance excellence, providing a clear indicator to customers of their added value.
One of the EcoTain-labeled products featured at Chinaplas is PV Fast Pink E, which is a bluish red pigment based on bio-succinic acid, with excellent fastness properties and outstanding dispersibility suitable for high-end applications and for most plastics. Exolit® OP 1230, another EcoTain-labeled product, is a white, fine-grained powder based on an organic phosphinate. It is the first non-halogenated flame retardant which can withstand the demanding requirements of the high end segment of engineering plastics. Ceridust® 8330 & 8090, especially designed for printing inks and wood coatings respectively, are bio-based additives with outstanding eco-performance by lowering required dosage and based on 100% renewable raw material.
"So far, we have screened 80% of our turnover of products. Of these, we have designated 50 EcoTain products and this will grow. We have the clear objective of continuously increasing the number of EcoTain products and steering the product portfolio towards more sustainability and continuous improvement," says Joachim Krüger, Senior Vice President Corporate Sustainability & Regulatory Affairs at Clariant.
ColorForward® looks ahead into 2016 trend Visitors to the Clariant booth at Chinplas will have the chance to take a glimpse at the trend for colors ahead of 2016 through Clariant's acclaimed annual tool of ColorForward. This edition marks the 10th year of ColorForward color forecasting guide for the plastic industry. ColorForward is the creative work from the international ColorWorks® and Clariant specialists that selects color and its combination that evoke an emotional response related to each trend.
It is the results of global trends survey and week-long creative workshops involving in-depth research from ColorWorks centers all over the world. A total of twenty colors, five for each of four societal trends will be presented in the 2016 palette.

The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner." AND ENTERS UPON HIS PARENTAL RELATIONS TO LITTLE PETE SKIDMORE. "Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
