02-Apr-2012 - USA

W. R. Grace & Co. announced that it has entered into an agreement with The Dow Chemical Company to develop new catalysts for polypropylene production. The catalysts, which use one of Dow’s non-phthalate internal donor technologies and Grace proprietary catalyst expertise, will be sold by Grace under the HYAMPP™ brand.

“We are continuously looking for ways to better meet the needs of our customers and the end-users of their products,” said Tony Dondero, Vice President and General Manager of Grace’s Specialty Catalysts & Process Technologies product line. “This technology enables our customers to produce new and advanced polypropylene products, including stronger, clearer resins with improved processability while also improving plant productivity.”
