.

As a global player in the plastics industry for 57 years, SONGWON has always been committed to responding to the industry’s challenges and trends. Over the years, the organization has strived to deliver a broad portfolio of high-performance, quality products and physical forms to customers. In line with the plastics industry’s expected global growth, SONGWON will now be accelerating its long-term strategic efforts by making necessary investments in time to meet the industry’s current, ever-increasing demand and strengthening partnerships with customers worldwide SONGWON’s commitment to supporting the plastics industry with its targeted growth also includes meeting today’s increasing and challenging logistic requirements.

In SONGWON’s key Polymer Stabilizers business, investments are ongoing with regards to intermediates and finished goods and these will continue in the coming years. In addition, form-giving investments are underway and further investments scheduled for One-Pack-Systems (OPS) in Korea and other regions, as well as for Free-Flowing products (FF). Furthermore, to ensure it can meet the increasing demand from the automotive and construction industry, SONGWON is also expanding its capacities of Tin Intermediates/Catalysts. Various other debottlenecking projects are currently in progress aimed at achieving higher efficiency.

Ensuring its business is always conducted with the utmost accountability, and with respect to its environmental and social responsibility, SONGWON’s investment plan is designed to drive the organization’s overall long-term strategy to be the industry partner of choice providing customers with a competitive and innovative range of high-quality products and customized solutions accompanied by excellent service.

SONGWON showcases its approach to mechanical recycling at K 2022

At the K 2022, Songwon Industrial Co., Ltd., the world’s 2nd largest manufacturer of polymer stabilizers and a key global player in the specialty chemicals business is showcasing its latest mechanical recycling stabilization approach for polyolefins (POs) and reaffirming its drive to deliver sustainable solutions to the industry.

With the emphasis on sustainability continually growing, mechanical recycling of PCR (post-consumer recycled) has become an essential process in the circular economy that demands more sophisticated technologies. To address the rapidly increasing demand for sustainable solutions related to design, performance, recycling and lifecycle of plastics, SONGWON is making a significant contribution to the mechanical recycling industry with its range of re-stabilization antioxidants, presented at K 2022.

Songwon - mechanical recycling

SONGWON has adopted a pragmatic approach to solving recycling challenges and focused on sustaining the properties of most PCR plastics through re-stabilization. Although antioxidants are not generally used in the post-consumer recycling (PCR) of polyolefins, SONGWON’s family of SONGNOX® Binary Blends (primary and secondary antioxidants) was specially evaluated for the mechanical recycling of polyolefins. SONGWON’s blends improve processing as well as long-term thermal stability and, in this way, make it possible for mechanical recyclers to offer improved, cost-efficient recycling resins.

“When no stabilizers are added during processing, the melt-flow characteristics of mechanically recycled polypropylene change rapidly, sometimes so drastically that it results in poor processing and the loss of mechanical properties. In such situations re­ stabilization is recommended,” explains Thomas Schmutz, Leader Global Technical Service, Testing & Application Development. “SONGWON's Binary Blends work surprisingly well in the mechanical recycling of polyolefins, are generally sufficient to protect the polymer during processing and subsequently lead to better quality and cost efficiency.”

SONGWON launches new products at K 2022 highlighting its commitment to the industry

Songwon Industrial Co., Ltd., the world’s 2nd largest manufacturer of polymer stabilizers and a key global player in the specialty chemicals business highlights its ongoing commitment to the plastics industry with new product launches at K 2022.

SONGWON manufactures a comprehensive range of antioxidants and UV stabilizers in a full range of physical product forms. By continually increasing its production capacity to match the needs of the markets it serves and with its proprietary technology and backward integration, SONGWON is able to continue to deliver the high quality, consistency and security of supply that customers have come to expect.

Over the years, SONGWON’s success has come from listening closely to and transforming customers’ needs into high performance products. SONGWON has continued the long tradition of innovation by recently expanding its portfolio with 2 new products: SONGNOX® 9228 antioxidant and SONGSORB® 1164 UV absorber. SONGNOX® 9228 antioxidant and SONGSORB® 1164 UV absorber are suitable for packaging, agriculture, building & construction as well as home & personal care applications.

Due to its excellent hydrolytic stability, SONGNOX® 9228 antioxidant overcomes the challenges traditional high performance phosphites/phosphonites face by allowing more severe polyolefin processing, especially at high temperatures. In addition to this, it also delivers excellent color protection for Cr-type high density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP) and engineering resins.

The latest addition to SONGWON’s range of UV absorbers is a triazine, SONGSORB® 1164 protects plastics against UV light degradation. Compared to conventional benzotriazole UV absorbers, SONGSORB® 1164 makes it possible to achieve a longer service lifetime for polyolefins and engineering plastics exposed to outdoor weathering. The product was developed to be suitable for polyolefins intended for use in contact with food.

“SONGWON continues to support the industry with innovation by delivering in-house produced antioxidants and UV absorbers to the market. Both new products are great additions to our portfolio. SONGNOX® 9228T antioxidant brings valuable features to our solid phosphite product range and SONGSORB® 1164 UV absorber complements our SONGSORB® 1577 triazine range of UV absorbers,” says Franky Cuypers, Leader Global Sales at SONGWON.
