With our exclusive ChemCycling, our vision is to support a circular economy by reducing the use of fossil raw materials, minimizing waste and cutting CO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions in the value chain. We\u2019re here today making a difference with our new products, replacing a share of the fossil resources with recycled feedstocks, and that is a huge step towards less environmental impact, less emissions and less waste,\u201d said <strong>ChrismTitmarsh, Senior Vice President, Global Automotive Refinish Coatings, BASF.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Leveraging BASF\u2019s ChemCycling technology, recycled feedstock derived from waste tires is used to create certified Ccycled \u00ae products, effectively diverting them from landfills or incineration. The recycled feedstock is attributed to the certified Ccycled clearcoats through a mass balance approach: BASF Coatings\u2019 Glasurit AraClass A-C-24 Eco Balance and R-M Race Finish-R eSense clearcoats are the first automotive refinish products that utilize this technology, delivering benefits to both body shops and the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/10\/ChemCycling_DE-2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"With ChemCycling, BASF supports a circular economy by reducing the use of fossil raw materials, minimizing waste and cutting CO2 emissions in the value chain.\" class=\"wp-image-152320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/10\/ChemCycling_DE-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/10\/ChemCycling_DE-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/10\/ChemCycling_DE-2-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/10\/ChemCycling_DE-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/10\/ChemCycling_DE-2-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/10\/ChemCycling_DE-2.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">With ChemCycling, BASF supports a circular economy by reducing the use of fossil raw materials, minimizing waste and cutting CO2 emissions in the value chain. <br>\u00a9 BASF<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the products bring further benefits: The clearcoats&#8217; drying speed allows for fast processing, with the coating drying in just 20 minutes at 40\u00baC. By reducing drying time, energy consumption is significantly lowered, resulting in improved efficiency and reduced environmental impact. This feature is particularly advantageous for electric vehicles, as it minimizes their exposure to excessive heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Further expansion of Biomass Balance products<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the ChemCycling clearcoats, BASF will launch another sustainable solution: New mixing clears based on BASF\u2019s biomass balance approach have been added to the waterborne basecoat series of Glasurit 100 Line and R-M AGILIS, both of which already offer the lowest VOC content below 250 g\/L in the industry.
