Stargate Hydrogen uses BASF’s Ultrason® for lightweight and durable frames in its Stellar electrolyzer stacks
The electrolyzer manufacturer Stargate Hydrogen, Estonia, is now using BASF’s Ultrason® to manufacture the frames in its stacks used for alkaline water electrolyzers (AWE). The polysulfone (PSU) Ultrason® S replaces metals such as nickel, resulting in significantly lighter stacks. This substitution is possible because BASF’s high-performance thermoplastic offers high temperature and chemical resistance also in harsh alkaline conditions. It can withstand high stack pressures due to excellent compression strength. As Ultrason® can be injection-molded, it provides greater design flexibility for easier functional integration than metal. The collaboration between Stargate Hydrogen and BASF has yielded an exceptional result: the pressurized stacks of the Stellar series are designed for long operational lifespans, supporting reliable hydrogen production, and reducing downtime and maintenance costs. This durability enhances the economic feasibility of green hydrogen production, making it a cost-effective solution.
BASF, AkzoNobel and Arkema team up to lower carbon footprint of architectural powder coatings
The carbon footprint of superdurable architectural powder coatings supplied by AkzoNobel’s Interpon brand is up to 40% lower, thanks to an ongoing value chain partnership with Arkema and BASF. It means the superdurable Interpon D range can now make an even bigger impact in helping to reduce embodied carbon over the whole lifecycle of a building.
