Both Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) are powder-based 3D printing technologies ideal for functional prototypes and end-use parts — but they each have unique advantages: MJF (Multi Jet Fusion) 🔹Faster build speeds 🔹Smoother surface finish 🔹More consistent mechanical properties 🔹Excellent for detailed features and assemblies 🔹Suitable for higher volume production SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) 🔹Greater material flexibility 🔹More post-processing and finishing options 🔹High thermal and chemical resistance 🔹Well-suited for parts with complex geometries and internal channels 🔹Better for low volume batch prototyping Both are strong choices — but the right one depends on your design goals, part complexity, and performance needs. source : HLH Prototypes Co Ltd

Sigma Advanced Systems has signed a seven-year agreement valued nearly £300 million (around ₹3,800 crore) with Rolls-Royce to manufacture and supply a wide portfolio of high-precision-engineered, safety-critical components and assemblies for the latter’s aerospace programmes. The contract provides a long-term revenue stream and stronger visibility over future growth, Sigma said. It is a programme-level partnership delivered through its manufacturing network across India and the UK. The partnership builds on an existing relationship. With proximity, engineering collaboration, and programme alignment in the UK, the company cements its transition from a system player to a more integrated manufacturing partner capable of handling larger work packages, the company said. An aerospace and defence company with more than three decades of manufacturing experience, Sigma operates across India and the UK, with expansion under way in the U.S. The company works with global aerospace and defence OEMs...

And that is why not all carbon nanotubes deliver the same performance. Thanks to their unique one-layer structure, single wall carbon nanotubes are long and highly flexible, with a high aspect ratio and exceptional intrinsic mechanical and electrical properties. They are able to form a widespread, homogeneous, and stable 3D conductive network within materials at ultralow dosages. This makes it possible to create colorful or transparent conductive products with improved performance and durability.

BASF and Sumitomo Chemical have signed a license agreement that allows BASF to use Sumitomo’s innovative HCl Oxidation globally.

May 13, 2026

Great news. BASF and Sumitomo Chemical (through its license partner) have signed a license agreement that allows #BASF to use Sumitomo’s innovative HCl Oxidation globally. At BASF Monomers, we operate production assets for #isocyanates in all key regions – US, Europe and Asia (China and Korea) and produce millions of tons of Isocyanates each year. One side product in this value chain is hydrochloric acid. With Sumitomo’s technology, BASF can now turn this #hydrochloricacid (HCl) back into Chlorine, which is then used again to produce Isocyanates in our plants. This important new process is part of our Verbund spirit and will make our isocyanates production even more productive and resilient in the future. The agreement marks an important step in our partnership with #Sumitomo and our contracting partner #TechnipEnergies , and it reflects the trust and constructive spirit on all sides. A big thank-you to everyone who helped bring this together. We’re looking forwar...

LyondellBasell has earned top honors at the Plastics Recycling Awards Europe for a tool storage case that demonstrates how #recycledplastics can deliver professional-grade performance. The chemical industry leader, alongside Bosch Power Tools, received recognition in the Household & Leisure category for the L-Boxx Contractor at a May 6 ceremony during the Plastics Recycling Show Europe in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The award-winning product represents a significant milestone in mechanical recycling applications. Several models in the Bosch L-Boxx Family — including the 1, 3, 3AC, and 4.3, with the Contractor model coming soon — contain more than 70% #recycledpolypropylene sourced from post-consumer waste. These rugged cases meet Bosch Power Tools' rigorous drop-test standards while providing reliable storage solutions for hand tools used by contractors and tradespeople daily. "Recognitions like this one show what's possible when circularity is translated into everyday p...
