During 18th to 19th December 2009, as the typical representative of XPS production line supplier in China, our company has been invited to participate in HCFCs alternatives technology seminar of XPS production organized by Material Science & Engineering Department of Beijing Technology & Business University (Institute of Plastics Processing & Application of Light Industry) collaborated with Ministry of Environmental Protection of China.

In this seminar, the organizer Dr. Wang expressed the requirements of government. He said our Premier Wen jiabao has said in Copenhagen that no matter United Nations Climate Change Conference Copenhagen can get a positive conclusion or not, we will still persist in our environmental protection strategic plan to reduce the CO2 emission. The ban of usage of HCFCs or HFCs will come earlier than we expected. So HCFCs alternatives technology of XPS production becomes more urgent.

In the seminar, our company has been encouraged by the officer from Ministry of Environmental Protection of China because our efforts and contribution in CO2 foam XPS technology. In the meanwhile of this seminar, almost all experts have got a common conclusion about CO2 foam XPS production line that twin screw extruder plus single screw extruder tandem structure is the best choice for CO2 foam XPS production now. The experts also discussed the present China National Standard of XPS board. Comparing to European standard DIN EN 13164, China National Standards is more criticized. China National Standard Press Center will consider to change GB (China National Standard) into more tolerant in thermal conductivity. We also hope this new standard can carry out earlier. It will help CO2 foamed XPS board goes to the domestic market quickly. Actually, the quality of our CO2 foamed XPS board has been accepted by Australia customer and it also can meet European standard.
