Kaisai Xinjiang Wusu Production Base
The leading industrial biotechnology solution provider, Kasai Bio-Industrial Co., Ltd. PA5X series and its monomer 1,5-pentanediamine, has attracted wide attention in the industry! As a substitute for traditional petroleum-based polyamide base resin The introduction of the new bio-based modification material, PA5X series, is of great significance. It has brought the gospel especially to PA66 modified enterprises and their downstream industries!
For many years, PA66 modified plastic has been one of the indispensable materials for important end-use applications in the national economy, such as automobiles, electronics and electrical appliances. However, in recent years, the price of PA66 base resin has continued to rise, but it has been related. The modified compounding enterprises and the downstream industry enterprises have brought certain difficulties. The main reasons for this phenomenon are: the increasing market demand, the second is the frequent fluctuation of international oil prices and supply, and the third is the PA66 base resin. The production technology of raw material-adiponitrile is only controlled by a few companies, resulting in unstable supply and high prices. Therefore, overcoming the technical difficulties of adiponitrile production is an important way to reverse the continuous increase of PA66 prices and stabilize supply. one!
Founded in 1997, Kaiser Bio-Industry Co., Ltd. specializes in the development and practice of industrial technology for bio-manufacturing. Projects that have achieved large-scale industrialization include long-chain dibasic acids, biobutanol, biopentylamine and organisms. Polyamide. In recent years, Kaiser has developed bio-based pentamethylenediamine and used it to produce bio-based polyamide base resin with excellent performance. In 2014, the company successfully completed the industrial test run.
Bio-based pentaamine developed by Kaiser can replace traditional petroleum-based hexamethylene diamine and be combined with dibasic acids of different chain lengths to produce a full range of bio-based polyamides, including low-melting long-chain polyamides, medium melting point. Conventional polyamides and high temperature polyamides. The odd carbon chain properties of this biopentylamine give the PA5X series of polyamides excellent properties such as good self-extinguishing properties, fluidity and high toughness and high wear resistance. Therefore, PA5X series of modified materials can be widely used in electronic connectors, automotive engine parts, electrical components, mechanical and gear components and cable ties, insulation strips and automotive tubing.
Among them, PA56 in the PA5X series can replace the traditional PA66 for material modification in most cases. At present, many well-known domestic and foreign modified materials companies have begun to try the PA5X series. It is worth mentioning that the traditional petrochemical law has been The diamine process is: naphtha→butadiene→adiponitrile→1,6-hexanediamine, or naphtha/natural gas→acrylonitrile→adiponitrile→1,6-hexanediamine, The bio-pentanediamine process developed by Kaiser is: starch/sugar→microbial conversion→pentanediamine. In contrast, since the latter's main raw materials are derived from renewable biomass materials, it is more significant. Low carbon, environmental advantages, and the supply and price of raw materials are not affected by oil fluctuations. This is of great significance for getting rid of the supply of imported hexamethylene diamine!
In order to meet the wide market demand, Kaiser's production base in Xinjiang Wusu will be built in the first phase of the production line including the design of a bio-based polyamide with an annual production capacity of 100,000 tons, and a bio-based design with an annual production capacity of 50,000 tons as an important raw material. The pentanediamine production line and the long-chain dibasic acid production line with an annual production capacity of 30,000 tons will be officially put into production in the near future.
Kaisai Xinjiang Wusu Production Base
Since its inception, Kaiser has been focusing on the independent development of economically viable industrial biotechnology solutions. In recent years, our R&D team has successfully developed bio-based pentaamine industrialization technology, and at the same time, we are currently the largest in the world. A series of long-chain dibasic acid suppliers. Based on these two key monomer materials, we have developed a bio-based polyamide PA5X series. Currently, we will focus on promoting the application of bio-based polyamides to downstream manufacturers and gradually scale up the scale of output. We hope that with our leading biotechnology power, we will lead the downstream industry to a more environmentally friendly, diverse and clean future. ' Mr. Zhang Hongguang, Vice President of Kaisai Business, said.
As an innovative company focused on the independent development of economically viable industrial biotechnology solutions, Kaiser has been committed to industrialized biomaterials through industrial biotechnology in 1997 to replace the previously only chemical route. Special chemical materials obtained or chemically impossible to produce, and the properties of the materials are better and the cost is more advantageous. At present, Kaisai has set up a research and development center in Shanghai Zhangjiang Hi-Tech Park, and in Wusu, Xinjiang and Jining, Shandong. It has two production bases. Among them, the long-chain dibasic acid production base located in Jining, Shandong Province has been industrialized in 2002, with an annual production capacity of 40,000 tons.
