IN BRIEF
PQ grows in silicates PQ , a US-based producer of silicates , silicas and derivative products , has acquired the speciality silicate business of Switzerland ’ s VanBaerle Group , which are mainly used in industrial welding applications . For its part , VanBaerle will henceforth focus on the Organo Mineral Binder , an all-around binder system for fully biocide-free paints and coatings .
Aarti long-term deal India ’ s Aarti Industries announced it had signed a four-year agreement with a multinational conglomerate for the supply of an unnamed niche speciality chemical . This is anticipated to generate revenue of over $ 72 million . Aaari has already been supplying the product to the customer for the past five years and has enough capacity already .
Lanxess , IBUTec to develop iron oxides
Lanxess and its German compatriot IBU- Tec Advanced Materials have entered into a research cooperation to develop advanced iron oxides for use in cathode material for lithium-iron-phosphate ( LFP ) batteries . They aim to optimise the electrochemical properties of LFP batteries , such as energy density , charging speed and the number of charging cycles .
Weimar-based IBU-Tec is currently the only European manufacturer of LFP cathode material , while Lanxess operates the world ’ s largest plant for iron oxide , the key raw material for LFP batteries , at Krefeld-Uerdingen . It can supply iron oxide particles in the required size , purity , morphology and quantities .
Lanxess added that demand for LFP in Europe is expected to grow by 20 %/ year to 2030 , because it is up to 50 % cheaper than alternative battery materials and offers intrinsic safety advantages . To date , however , demand for it has been met almost exclusively by non-European suppliers .
