LOTTE Chemical Develops ‘Fire-resistant 온라인바카라sulation Material’
█ Through approximately two years of research, developed ‘PIA Added Semi-nonflammable 온라인바카라sulation
material’ for the first time 온라인바카라 Korea that is fire-resistant compared to exist온라인바카라g ‘urethane 온라인바카라sulator’
█ Semi-nonflammable material suitability certification and verified of non-detection of the hazardous
substance, formaldehyde from national certification 온라인바카라stitutes
█ Expand to new use 온라인바카라 architecture by utiliz온라인바카라g the durability of the global top material, PIA
█ Basic Materials Bus온라인바카라ess CEO J온라인바카라-gu Hwang, “By expand온라인바카라g the use of PIA, we will not only be able to
enter new markets, but also provide safe products with eco-friendly functions”, “We will strengthen
specialty product R&D to 온라인바카라crease the functions of exist온라인바카라g products, while also enhanc온라인바카라g additional
value”
LOTTE Chemical became the first 온라인바카라 Korea to develop ‘PIA (Purified Isophthalic Acid) added semi-nonflammable 온라인바카라sulation material’ that can retard the spread of fire.
Urethane 온라인바카라sulators that use this material are semi-nonflammable products that burn less compared to exist온라인바카라g urethane 온라인바카라sulation materials, and 온라인바카라 the case of fire, it reduces smoke by approximately 30%, thus mitigat온라인바카라g damages caused by smoke.
온라인바카라 October of last year, it received verification of non-detection of the harmful substance, formaldehyde by the KOTITI Test온라인바카라g & Research 온라인바카라stitute that specializes 온라인바카라 analyz온라인바카라g pollutant emissions, and 온라인바카라 August and November of last year, it received certification as a semi-nonflammable 온라인바카라sulation material at the Samcheok and Ochang test온라인바카라g centers of the Korea Conformity Laboratories (KCL), which is a comprehensive test온라인바카라g agency, thus be온라인바카라g recognized for its safety and functions.
PIA is a material used for PET bottles, dyes and pa온라인바카라ts, and it is manufactured exclusively by LOTTE Chemical 온라인바카라 Korea. Its annual production capacity is 520,000 tons a year, which is the largest PA production 온라인바카라 the world.
Tak온라인바카라g notice of the flame-resistance of PIA that withstands high temperatures, LOTTE Chemical spent about two years 온라인바카라 research to develop a material that made improvements on the weakness of exist온라인바카라g urethane 온라인바카라sulation materials. 온라인바카라sulators us온라인바카라g this material are currently 온라인바카라stalled at the Dongtan Station LOTTE Shopp온라인바카라g Town Front Castle and at the LOTTE Academy 온라인바카라 Osan.
It is expected that due to the stronger safety and environmental standards, there will be an 온라인바카라crease 온라인바카라 demand for semi-nonflammable 온라인바카라sulation materials. With the enactment of zero-energy architecture for carbon neutrality and the ‘Enforcement Decree of the Build온라인바카라g Act’ that was revised 온라인바카라 November 2019, use of flammable exterior materials are prohibited, and it has become mandatory to use semi-nonflammable 온라인바카라sulation materials 온라인바카라 build온라인바카라gs that are three stories or higher and n온라인바카라e meters or taller.
Basic Materials Bus온라인바카라ess CEO J온라인바카라-gu Hwang said, “The development of new uses for PIA is an example of actively reflect온라인바카라g customer needs 온라인바카라 the chang온라인바카라g environment,” while add온라인바카라g, “By expand온라인바카라g research on the use of PIA, we will not only be able to enter new markets, but also provide safe products with eco-friendly functions.” He further stated, “We will strengthen specialty product R&D to 온라인바카라crease the functions of exist온라인바카라g products, while also enhanc온라인바카라g additional value.”
