In September 2011, the Polyurethane Division, a business unit of Dow Chemical, joined hands with Kanglong Group to officially launch PASCAL technology to the market.
the
As a new polyurethane foam insulation technology, PASCAL can improve the thermal insulation effect of refrigerators and freezers by as much as 10%, which has attracted great attention from the industry and the market. In the Dow Center in Zhangjiang, Shanghai, Bruno Barbet, Dow Global Polyurethane Home Appliance Marketing Director, Vanni Parenti, Dow Global Polyurethane Home Appliance Technology Director, and Dow Chemical China Co., Ltd. Polyurethane Asia Pacific Marketing Manager Gu Wei and other relevant persons in charge communicated with reporters on the application and promotion of PASCAL technology.

At the China Household Appliances Expo held in March this year, Haier Refrigerator and Dow Chemical signed a strategic cooperation agreement on the “PASCAL Polyurethane Energy Saving and Environmental Protection Solution Project”. Duo refrigerator, as the refrigerator with the lowest power consumption in the world at present, has pushed PASCAL vacuum foaming technology to the big stage of energy saving and environmental protection.

In a competitive home appliance industry, refrigerator and freezer manufacturers are constantly looking for win-win solutions that meet consumer demands while complying with increasingly stringent energy-saving regulations. Previous energy-saving technologies often bring more expensive costs or lead to a decrease in design flexibility, which has also become the focus of attention for PASCAL technology.

Regarding the cost issue, Mr. Bruno Barbet explained: “The cost is not only the cost of raw materials, but actually a concept of comprehensive cost. Our technology has brought about an increase in production efficiency, thereby reducing manufacturing costs. At the same time, the application of our technology After that, the amount of polyurethane used in a single refrigerator also decreased. Therefore, the comprehensive cost can only be compared from the combination of these three aspects.”
In addition to cost, flexibility in product design is also an important aspect of providing solutions to customers. “PASCAL technology can bring more flexibility to home appliance manufacturers, so that they have more options to position their products.” Mr. Bruno Barbet said, “After using this technology, it can provide manufacturers with more More design space, and according to different consumer needs, make a diversified positioning of the market.”

In the process of promoting the commercialization of PASCAL technology, Dow and Conlon have applied for several patents for this innovative technological solution in their respective fields. “The flexibility of PASCAL technology itself is relatively large, and its technical space is wide. It is not only about saving raw materials, but also comprehensively involves energy efficiency, production, including mobility and many other aspects.” Mr. Vanni Parenti commented on this project The future prospect of the technology is very promising. “So on the whole, we think this technology will be in the leading position in the market for a long time in the future. We still have room for further improvement in many aspects. We think that PASCAL technology is the most economical Practical and more efficient technology.”

The perfect combination of excellent polyurethane thermal insulation and energy-saving performance and efficient electrical box filling has brought customers a unique and innovative solution. The application of PASCAL technology in refrigerators is undoubtedly a success. Mr. Bruno Barbet revealed that in the future, with the further regulation of energy consumption and energy efficiency standards by governments of various countries, according to market changes, PASCAL technology will develop new uses, such as applying to water heaters or panels. Mr. Gu Wei said: “Refrigerators have the highest requirements on energy consumption and energy efficiency, so PASCAL technology tends to be developed for refrigerators and is the first to be promoted in this field. In the future, Dow will turn to water heaters or other fields of application for research and development , and this still requires some improvements in equipment and process flow.”
