From the Sector

Monforts Textilmaschinen GmbH & Co. KG will be providing information on its extensive range of coating and finishing technologies for the production of nonwovens and technical textiles at the forthcoming Techtextil India exhibition.

“India is already a very important market for Monforts and there are exciting prospects ahead for Indian manufacturers of technical textiles, who are well positioned to capitalise on growth opportunities,” says Monforts Head of Denim Hans Wroblowski, who will be at the Monforts stand in Hall 4, booth C52 at the show. “India has one of the largest working-age populations in the world and a complete textile value chain for both natural and synthetic fibres.”

In addition, he adds, India’s government, through its Ministry of Textiles, has been actively promoting the growth of technical textiles through various programmes based on investment promotion, subsidies, the creation of infrastructure and the stimulation of consumption.

As a result, India’s Ministry of Textiles is forecasting that the growth of technical textiles in the country will be over 18% annually in the next few years, from a value of US$16.6 billion in 2018 to US$28.7 billion in 2021.

Value addition

High value-added technical products such as wide-width digital printing substrates, carbon fabrics for high-performance composites, filter media, flame retardant barrier fabrics and heavy-duty membranes are now being coated on Monforts texCoat ranges and finished with the company’s industry-leading Montex stenters.

“Since we acquired the technology that our coating units are based on in 2015, we have made a lot of refinements,” says Hans. “All of these developments are reflected in higher coating accuracy and the resulting quality of the treated fabrics. At the same time, our latest multi-functional coating heads offer an unprecedented range of options, with a wide range of modules available.”

The texCoat user interface is now equipped with the unique Monforts visualisation system and the magnetic doctor blade has greater power reserves. Options include a carbon fibre-reinforced composite coating drum with a more scratch-resistant surface and maximum rigidity and remote control which simplifies exact adjustment for the operator.

Montex stenters in special executions are meanwhile ideal for the drying and finishing of both technical woven fabrics and nonwovens and characterised by high stretching devices in both length and width.

“The European-built Montex range of stenters has earned its leading position in the technical textiles market due to the overall robustness, reliability and economy of these machines,” Hans concludes. “Whatever the intended end-product – and we continue to discover potentially new areas in which technical textiles can be utilised all the time – we have the machine specification and know-how to turn ideas into reality. In India we also benefit from the strong sales and service support of A.T.E. Enterprises.”

Texchtextil India takes place alongside World of Composites at the Bombay Exhibition Centre in Mumbai from November 20-22.

• Construction of a new air purification and sulfur recovery plant
• Further improvement of the exhaust emission values at the Lenzing site
• Important step in achieving the CO2 targets of the Lenzing Group

Lenzing – The Lenzing Group is a global leader in the climate-friendly and sustainable production of wood-based textile fibers. Lenzing announced its climate targets in August of this year. By 2030, the company aims to reduce its specific CO2 emissions per ton of manufactured pulp and fibers by 50 percent. By the year 2050, the Lenzing Group will no longer generate any net CO2 emissions.

Lenzing‘s Management Board has now resolved to invest EUR 40 mn to expand the production of the raw material sulfuric acid at the Lenzing site. This comprises an important milestone on the path towards climate neutrality. In the future, a new air purification and sulfur recovery plant will not only optimize the company’s self-sufficiency for this raw material and enhance process reliability but improve environmental protection within the context of a clear forward-looking strategy.

Improved exhaust emission performance

The new plant represents an important contribution towards implementing the sustainability strategy of the Lenzing Group, and also helps to ensure an even higher level of environmental compatibility of all production operations at the Lenzing site. The application of state-of-the-art technologies will further improve exhaust emission values. Furthermore, the new facility will help further reduce the use of fossil fuels by generating steam which will, in turn, be converted into electricity. In this way, it will also support the energy self-sufficiency of the company’s operations in Lenzing.

Improved CO2 scorecard

As a result, the production plant in Lenzing will reduce its annual CO2 emissions by 15,000 tons. This is an important step towards further advancing the company’s ambitious plans in the coming years and also strengthen Lenzing’s leadership role as a driver of ecologically sustainable industry. “On the basis of these investments, Lenzing is taking the next step in achieving its climate targets. At the same time, it will also reach a significantly higher level of autonomy with respect to a vital raw material”, states Stefan Doboczky, Chief Executive Officer of Lenzing.

• Borealis’ EverMinds™ ambition moves industry one step closer to plastics circularity thanks to new recycling technology and improved recyclate
• Borealis also announces significant material improvements to existing Purpolen® recyclate materials

Borealis, a leading provider of innovative solutions in the fields of polyolefins, base chemicals and fertilizers, announces the introduction of a new plastics recycling technology, Borcycle™. This evolving technology will be used to produce high-quality compounds made of recycled polyolefins (rPO) such as the newly-launched Borcycle™ MF1981SY, an rPO with over 80% recycled content intended for use in visible appliance parts. Borealis also announces a series of significant material improvements to existing recyclates in the established Purpolen™ brand portfolio. These market launches and product improvements are important technology advancements and thus accelerate the transformation to a circular economy of plastics. Borealis and its wholly-owned subsidiary, mtm plastics, will showcase the new Borcycle technology and recyclate innovations at the K 2019 in October.

Borealis is leading the industry by applying its Visioneering Philosophy™ to the development and implementation of novel polyolefins-based solutions that enable plastics reuse, recycling, and recovery, and by designing for circularity. These wide-ranging activities are gathered under the symbolic roof of EverMinds™, the Borealis platform dedicated to promoting a more circular mind-set in the industry. By capitalising on its profound expertise in virgin polyolefins and collaborating with value chain partners, Borealis keeps discovering new opportunities for business growth within the circular economy.

Advancing technology to bring about polyolefin circularity

The new technology, Borcycle, transforms polyolefin-based waste streams into recyclate material such as pellets. As a transformative technology, it complements the existing Borealis virgin polyolefins portfolio with a range of pioneering, circular solutions. It unites state-of-the-art technology with the profound Borealis polymer expertise gained over decades.

As a scalable and modular technology, Borcycle has been developed to meet growing market demand for high-quality recyclate. Leading appliance brand owners, for one, have pledged to increase the amount of recycled plastics in their goods. Yet until recently, producers have not been able to rely on a consistent supply of high-quality recyclate. The Borcycle technology will help address this challenge. Compounds made using the Borcycle technology deliver high performance, add value and offer versatility. Producers and brand owners in a range of industries will profit from the availability of high-quality recyclate that helps them meet environmental and regulatory challenges.

“Advancing technology is crucial if our aim is to implement value-creating solutions in the circular sphere,” claims Maurits van Tol, Borealis Senior Vice President, Innovation, Technology & Circular Economy Solutions. “‘Building tomorrow together’ means innovating, collaborating, focussing on the customer, and above all – taking action. The launch of our new recycling technology Borcycle is tangible proof of our commitment to achieving plastics circularity.”

New and improved recyclate for high-end applications

Borcycle™ MF1981SY is the first of several upcoming launches of rPO solutions made under the umbrella of the Borcycle technology. Borcycle™ MF1981SY will be available to Borealis customers in Europe. The compound is an exciting addition to the rPO portfolio because it is a 10% talc-filled compound that contains over 80% recycled material. It offers an ideal balance between stiffness and impact. The compound is especially suited for use in visible black parts, for example in small appliances.

Like its relatives in the mtm plastics family of recyclate materials, Borcycle™ MF1981SY is a truly sustainable offering. Recyclates from mtm save approximately 30% of CO2 emissions compared to virgin materials.

A number of significant improvements have been made to existing recyclate grades in the Purpolen portfolio.

“Mechanical recycling is presently a most eco-efficient method to implement the principles of the circular economy,” explains Guenter Stephan, Head of Mechanical Recycling, Borealis Circular Economy Solutions. “Borealis and mtm plastics are leveraging their respective areas of expertise to make significant progress in achieving polyolefin circularity by upscaling recycling output and ensuring the reliable supply of high-quality plastics recyclate for European producers, in particular.”

• Kombination aus wässriger Textilbeschichtung mit nachwachsenden Fasern

Covestro und die österreichische Lenzing Gruppe haben ein besonders umweltverträgliches Kunstleder für die Schuhindustrie entwickelt. Die Kompetenzen beider Partner ergänzen sich: Covestro bringt seine Expertise als Rohstoff-Spezialist für Polyurethan (PU)-Textilbeschichtungen ein, die auf der wässrigen INSQIN® Technologie basiert. Lenzing verfügt über ein einzigartiges Know-how in der Produktion von Fasern, die auf dem erneuerbaren und natürlichen Material Holz basieren.

Die Umweltverträglichkeit von beschichteten Textilien hängt von einer ganzen Reihe von Faktoren ab. Bedeutsam sind etwa die Herkunft der Rohstoffe, die Verwendung von organischen Lösemitteln, der Energie- und Wasserverbrauch. Das Treibhauspotential von wässrigen PU-Beschichtungen der INSQIN® Technologie ist deutlich niedriger als das von lösemittelbasierten Systemen. Die TENCEL™ Lyocell Faser von Lenzing reduziert den ökologischen Fußabdruck von Kunstleder ebenfalls erheblich, unter anderem, weil sie ressourcenschonend mittels eines innovativen Kreislaufverfahrens hergestellt wird.

„Somit kann die Schuhindustrie jetzt auf Kunstleder zugreifen, das neue Standards hinsichtlich Nachhaltigkeit setzt – ermöglicht durch die Kombination einzigartiger und innovativer Lösungen beider Partner“, sagt Thomas Michaelis, bei Covestro Leiter Textilbeschichtung für die Region Europa, Naher Osten, Afrika und Lateinamerika (EMEA/LA). Ihre Kooperation liefert somit ein hervorragendes Beispiel für „Nachhaltigkeit (Englisch: sustainability) durch Innovation“ oder kurz: „Sustainnovation“. Sie passt somit auch perfekt zum Motto „Material Solutions inspired by Sustainnovation“ des Auftritts von Covestro am Stand D 22 in Halle 3.0 auf der Techtextil 2019 Messe.

On April 11^th, 2019, the 9 Partner Institutes of the AZL opened the doors of their machinery halls and research labs to provide an extensive and on-site insight into the research and development capaci-ties in the field of lightweight production and composites at the RWTH Aachen Campus. As a special highlight of this year, the AZL presented the "iComposite 4.0" self-optimizing process chain: fiber-spraying - dry fiber placement - adaptive RTM as well as AZL´s new prototype machine development "Ultra-Fast Consolidator Machine" for highly productive and flexible processing of thermoplastic tapes with in-situ consolidation (winner of the JEC World Innovation Award 2019).

More than 100 Participants from external companies as well as from the AZL Network had the possibility to experience updates on the latest lightweight production technologies and equipment, get to know the bene-fital infrastructure on the Campus and network with internationally represented companies of the entire light-weight value chain researches by taking part in five guided tours to the lightweight institutes.

The AZL brought together content in the field of textiles (ITA), plastics and composite materials (IKV), pro-duction technology (WZL, IPT, ILT, and ISF), quality assurance and production-integrated measurement technology (WZL), lightweight design (SLA), automotive production (IKA) as well as multi-material systems and process integration (AZL).

Once a year at the Open Day, the AZL offers an exclusive and widespread unique insight into the R&D capacities of the institutes in the field of lightweight and composite technologies on the campus of RWTH Aachen University. Within walking distance, researchers and students from 9 institutes are working on the latest technologies for the cost-efficient development and production of lightweight components within one of the largest research landscapes in Europe. The research, closely involving industrial companies, covers the entire value chain from fiber production, materials and processing technology to quality assurance and com-ponent testing.

Techtextil 2019: Schoeller launches its new finishing technology called NanoSphere® Plus. The special effect of this new development is its protection against fingerprints and greasy stains. Furthermore, even after being absorbed by the fabric stains are quickly and easily wiped away without washing.

Every human being leaves its marks. In particular, on daily-use items that are picked up or touched often. Especially on textile surfaces, hand and fingerprints in combination with dirt and dust particles leave an unpleasant, greasy dirt film, which is very difficult to clean.

NanoSphere® Plus, developed by Schoeller Technologies AG, the business unit for technologies at Schoeller Textil AG, works on the basis of a functional chain. Textiles are equipped with a matrix finish to reduce the capillary effect in the textile’s fibers. Especially unpleasant sebum residues and dirt that are often released by finger and handprints are less absorbed by the fabric and can be easily wiped away.

Beside the excellent protection against finger and handprints, textiles with NanoSphere® Plus are additionally water and oil repellent, abrasion resistant and extremely durable. The finishing technology rarely affects the look or feel of the fabric.

Non-washable textiles that are often touched by hands or fingers, or fabrics that are in direct contact with the skin benefit most from this new technology. Therefore, NanoSphere® Plus is ideal for woven fabrics and synthetic leather or synthetic suede for bags, covers of electronical devices, head phones, loud speakers or other items in the field of interior equipment.

Wie können thermoplastische Tapes Kosten senken und zugleich Produkteigenschaften von Spritzgussteilen steigern?

Das AZL und das IKV entwickeln gemeinsam mit Unternehmen Szenarien, wie thermoplastische Tapes vermehrt bei der Herstellung von Spritzgussteilen eingesetzt werden können. Mittelständi-sche Spritzgießer, Tape-Hersteller, Maschinen- und Werkzeugbauer sowie OEMs und Tier 1s wer-den in die Erarbeitung aktiv einbezogen und profitieren von den Ergebnissen. Das AZL und das IKV laden interessierte Unternehmen ein, an der gemeinsamen Studie sowie der Auftaktveranstaltung während der Fakuma 2018 am 18. Oktober 2018 teilzunehmen.

Als lokale Verstärkungen ermöglichen thermoplastische Tapes, Produkteigenschaften von Spritzgussbautei-len zu verbessern und gleichzeitig aufgrund eines effizienten Materialeinsatzes Kosten zu sparen: Erhöhte Steifigkeit und Festigkeit, höhere Oberflächenhärte sowie eine verbesserte Optik bieten vor allem kleinen und mittelgroßen Spritzgießern Produktvorteile bei konventionellen Spritzgussteilen. Doch die Mehrheit der Spritzgießer setzt thermoplastische Tapes und ihr Potenzial nur vereinzelt ein.

Einbezug von Spritzgießern, Tape-Herstellern, Maschinen- und Werkzeugbauern sowie OEMs und Tier 1s
Die Experten der RWTH Aachen erarbeiten einen systematischen Überblick über Spritzguss-Anwendungen, die sich besonders eignen, um mit Hilfe thermoplastischer Tapes optimiert zu werden. Dabei liegt der Fokus insbesondere auf konventionellen Spritzgussteilen und nicht ausschließlich auf typischen Leichtbau-Anwendungen. Wichtiges Ergebnis des Projekts wird zudem eine umfassende Dokumentation des Stands der Technik von relevanten Methoden und Technologien für die Bauteilentwicklung und -fertigung sein. Durch den aktiven Einbezug der gesamten Wertschöpfungskette profitieren alle beteiligten Firmen von dem erarbeiteten Wissen und dem Austausch: So werden Entwicklungs- und Fertigungsprozesse analysiert und entwickelt, die insbesondere Spritzgießern helfen, thermoplastische Tapes in ihrer Produktion zu nutzen und das Potenzial der Technologie zu bewerten. Tape-Hersteller und Maschinen- und Werkzeugbauer erhalten Einblicke in die Anforderungen und Herausforderungen bei der Verwendung thermoplastischer Tapes aus Sicht der Verarbeiter. OEMs und Tier 1s profitieren vom direkten Austausch mit Lieferanten, um ihre Bedar-fe und Anforderungen zu kommunizieren und Applikationen gemeinsam zu bewerten.

Sechs Monate und drei Phasen führen zu einer Leitlinie
Die 6-monatige Studie wird mit einer Kategorisierung von Entwicklungsprozessen in Spritzgieß-Betrieben starten und im Anschluss einen Überblick über vielversprechende Anwendungen erarbeiten.
