Welcome to BASF in the United Kingdom

At BASF, we create chemistry for a sustainable future. We combine economic success with environmental protection and social responsibility. Through science and innovation we enable our customers in nearly every industry to meet the current and future needs of society.

Superconductors transmit electric power with negligible line losses and have high current-carrying capacity compared to copper. This will make it possible to generate and transmit electricity in a resource-saving manner in future.
For the efficient production of high-temperature superconductors Deutsche Nanoschicht GmbH, a BASF Group company, has developed a unique process: very thin films of a superconducting material are applied to a metal strip in a continuous process by a technique called chemical solution deposition. In contrast to other, physical methods, the chemical process requires neither a vacuum nor a clean room environment. This provides a decisive advantage for the production costs of the superconducting wires.
