Polymer expert and author of the blog allaboutplastics.com Dr. Herwig Juster and Dirk Moses, Head of Market Development at Technoform, explain how plastics enable sustainable solutions in various industries. The plastics experts give us an insight into the exciting world of the innovation potential of thermoplastic raw materials.
The automotive industry offers enormous potential for the use of high-performance plastics in the context of sustainability. Dirk uses an example to explain how plastic components enable the optimisation of battery packs for high-voltage batteries and how plastics enable the effective decoupling of components.
But it's not just the automotive industry that benefits from the advantages of plastics technology. Herwig shows us how high-performance polymers such as PPS can be used in the treatment of corrosive liquids and gases to save considerable amounts of CO2. These plastics not only offer a long service life, but also other advantages along the value chain, such as lower weight and easier assembly.
Dirk and Herwig also discuss the replacement of metals with plastics. While metals remain indispensable, there are applications in which plastics can be an efficient alternative.
For example, recycled plastics can replace metals in certain applications and at the same time create added value by utilising the benefits of plastics technology.
