The project will support China\u2019s goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060 by accelerating the adoption of distributed rooftop BIPV installations. The demand for BIPV products continues to rise globally, driven by construction projects, new material options and growing consumer preference for sustainable solutions.<\/p>\n<p>In China, using BIPVs to replace conventional thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) building materials for applications such as roofs, skylights and facades is an emerging trend. Aging requirements for BIPV TPO roofing far exceed the 10-year requirement for standard TPO roofing, a critical factor in offsetting the cost of such installations. However, current TPO solutions in China are unable to meet this specification.<\/p>\n<p>Solvay\u2019s CYASORB CYNERGY SOLUTIONS<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> B Series UV\/thermal stabilizer will enable compliance with the 25-year weathering requirement for BIPV TPO roofing in China, providing excellent protection to TPO and PP parts, even in extreme exposure environments. CYASORB CYNERGY SOLUTIONS<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> B Series stabilizers prevent micro-crack formation, loss of gloss and color shift, and do not interfere with sealing, painting and other surface treatments. While Solvay\u2019s additives can be incorporated in the TPO membrane, they can also be used in photovoltaic panels and support systems, where they provide excellent UV protection for backsheet films and heat stability combined with good chemical resistance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSolvay is excited to work with 3TREES to introduce a new BIPV TPO roofing product to the Chinese market,\u201d commented Ning Chen, Vice President for Solvay\u2019s Polymer Additives business. \u201cEnabled by Solvay\u2019s solutions, 3TREES\u2019 new BIPV TPO roofing membrane will address the limitations of existing products. We look forward to supporting 3TREES in driving the building and construction industry\u2019s shift to BIPV solutions and working toward China\u2019s carbon neutrality goals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Initial testing by 3TREES demonstrated that Solvay\u2019s product provides superior stabilization performance. The goal of the collaboration is to work toward the commercialization and scale-up of this solution. The collaboration agreement will cover product testing, qualification, market promotion, new project development and production. Solvay\u2019s CYASORB CYNERGY SOLUTIONS<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> B Series stabilizer will be incorporated into 3TREES\u2019 TPO roofing sheets, allowing the company to far exceed ASTM D6878 and ASTM D573 standards. The stabilizer is also designed to address China-specific standards under evaluation, such as \u201cTechnical Regulations for Roofing Engineering of Photovoltaic Modules\u201d and \u201cTechnical Specifications for Roofing Engineering.\u201d Solvay has more than a decade of experience in the stabilization of building polymers, supporting leading builders and OEMs in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve been impressed by Solvay\u2019s quick action, technical support and stabilization solution,\u201d said Huang Lulu, Research &amp; Innovation Director at 3TREES. \u201cTheir CYASORB CYNERGY SOLUTIONS<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> B Series stabilizers provide excellent thermal aging performance, show no obvious discoloration, and enable TPO BIPV parts to maintain their physical properties. We\u2019re excited to accelerate the development of the BIPV market in China.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Visit Solvay\u2019s booth at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solvay.com\/en\/event\/k-2022\">K 2022<\/a> (Hall 6 \/ C61) to learn more about our BIPV solutions, or visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solvay.com\/en\/chemical-categories\/polymer-additives-uv-light-stabilizers-antioxidants-and-antistatic-agents\">www.solvay.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>CYASORB CYNERGY SOLUTIONS<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> is a registered trademark of Solvay.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solvay has announced a collaboration with 3TREES, a leading Chinese building materials manufacturer, to develop building-integrated photovoltaic&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":33601,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,16],"tags":[],"series":[],"class_list":["post-33600","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-plas-tv-meldungen-auf-der-startseite-unterhalb-slider","category-plast-tv-textmeldungen"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33600","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=33600"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33600\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":33602,"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33600\/revisions\/33602"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/33601"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=33600"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=33600"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=33600"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plas.tv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fseries&post=33600"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
