Clariant And Tianjin University Successfully Renew Catalyst Research Cooperation Agreement, Opening A New Chapter In Cooperation
- Clariant and Tianjin University extend strategic partnership in advanced catalyst R&D for four years
- Since signing the cooperation agreement in 2020 , the two parties have successfully launched a new hydrogenation catalyst and optimized existing catalysts
- The two partners will continue to explore innovations in catalysis research and strengthen knowledge exchange and sharing
Clariant, a specialty chemicals company focused on sustainability, announced today that it will extend its catalyst research partnership with Tianjin University, a renowned Chinese university. The cooperation between the two parties officially kicked off with the establishment of the “Clariant-Tianjin University Society” in 2020. The four-year extension is mainly due to the important achievements made by both parties during the previous cooperation period, including the successful commercialization of a new hydrogenation catalyst and the optimization of existing catalysts. The two parties will continue to leverage Tianjin University’s cutting-edge research capabilities and chemical expertise to promote innovation and sustainable development in the field of catalysis.
Marvin Estenfelder, Vice President R&D at Clariant Catalysts, said: “We are delighted to continue our collaboration with the talented team at Tianjin University. Together, we have achieved important results in catalyst technology that improves the efficiency and sustainability of our products. We look forward to continuing our groundbreaking research with Tianjin University and training the next generation of catalytic technology experts.”
In the new stage of cooperation, Ma Aide will give an academic report to students from the School of Chemical Engineering of Tianjin University on how innovative catalysts can support the sustainable development transformation of the chemical (petrochemical) industry and achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions.
Professor Hu Wenping, Executive Vice President of Tianjin University, said: “The collaboration with Clariant has greatly benefited our teachers and students, providing them with valuable opportunities and practical experience. In addition to jointly developing and improving catalysts, some graduate students have published excellent academic papers based on their learning results. This renewal will ensure that our catalyst innovation and talent training work will continue to advance.”
By renewing the cooperation agreement, Clariant and Tianjin University will make full use of each other’s advanced facilities, empower experienced researchers, and jointly promote some cooperative projects that are expected to achieve major innovations in the field of catalyst technology. This cooperation further demonstrates Clariant’s commitment to the Chinese market and further strengthens its ties with local customers.
