On October 18, at the company’s high-quality development collective road show in Shanghai, Liu Xiucai, chairman and president of Cathay Biotech, introduced that the company’s bio-based polyamide has the characteristics of renewable raw materials, recyclable products, and low cost. The advantages of competition have been applied to automobiles, smartphones, branded clothing, tire cord fabrics, auto parts, electronic appliances, transportation and logistics and other fields.
“Compared with traditional materials, the natural low-carbon properties of bio-based polyamide can not only ensure product performance, but also reduce carbon emissions from the source and promote sustainable economic and social development.” Liu Xiucai said, “Bio-manufacturing is based on renewable production. Production using substances as raw materials is equivalent to indirectly contributing carbon dioxide in the air to materials and energy for people’s clothing, food, housing and transportation through plant photosynthesis and biotechnology, thereby reducing humankind’s dependence on fossil energy such as petroleum.”
According to reports, Cathay Biotech is developing thermoplastic composite materials reinforced with bio-based polyamide and continuous glass fiber/carbon fiber, breaking through the cost and performance limitations of traditional thermoplastic composite materials, focusing on lightweight transportation logistics, new energy equipment, In large-scale scenarios in green building decoration and other fields, plastic can replace steel, plastic can replace aluminum, and thermoplastic can replace thermosetting.
In addition, the company is currently developing high-value utilization technology for agricultural waste such as crop straw, and is developing bio-waste for new biological materials, bio-fuels and other products to achieve large-scale bio-manufacturing without competing with others for food. , Don’t compete with food for land.”
