Purpose-led innovations showcased here
Royal DSM
Exhibiting under the theme of “Bright Science. Brighter Living,” this company will show how it is using its science-based competencies to develop innovations to both address the needs of its customers and tackle the world’s major challenges. One such example is the use of Arnitel in non-pneumatic tires (photo). Arnitel, a family of high-performance thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), offers a unique combination of flexibility, high temperature resistance, strength and processing characteristics. As such, Arnitel is increasingly being used as a lighter, smarter, greener alternative to conventional rubbers, reducing environmental impact and, ultimately, system costs. The market for non-pneumatic tires, or flat-free tires that are not supported by air pressure, is being driven by the need to integrate higher levels of sustainability, durability, efficiency and reduced costs, says the company.
