LANXESS at the Challenge Bibendum 2011
Press Kit
Innovations in chemistry for sustainable mobility
 |
LANXESS will be exhibiting at the 11th Challenge Bibendum, organized by the Michelin Group, this year on the grounds of the former Berlin-Tempelhof Airport.
 |
At a time when natural resources are becoming ever scarcer, the efficiency with which our vehicles transfer the engine's propulsion energy to the road plays an increasingly important role.
New challenges in “green” cars
 |
New drive concepts in automotive engineering pose new challenges for elastomers, including high resistance to previously uncommon media, such as ethanol, increased demands on flame retardance and, in electric vehicles, high ozone resistance.
Smart design that focuses on weight, engine efficiency and safety
 |
Although the “zero-emissions vehicle” is still some way off, plastics such as the Durethan polyamides and the Pocan polybutylene terephthalates (PBT) from LANXESS are playing a vital role in making it a reality.
