HOUSTON<\/span><\/span>, Dec. 18, 2024<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Ascend Performance Materials announced today the successful production of acrylonitrile, hexamethylene diamine, adipic acid and nylon 6,6 from feedstocks derived from used cooking oil, expanding its Bioserve<\/a> portfolio. The resulting nylon 6,6 has a 25% lower product carbon footprint than nylon 6,6 made from fossil-fuel derived feedstock.<\/p>\n

Using an ISCC Plus-certified mass-balance approach allows for industrial-scale production of sustainable materials without sacrificing performance. Ascend’s production facilities in the United States<\/span> are all ISCC Plus certified to handle bio-based, circular and bio-circular materials.<\/p>\n

“We are focused on finding technical solutions for our customers’ challenges,” said Alex Mihut<\/span>, Ascend’s vice president for performance chemicals. “Using the mass-balance approach allows us to meet the growing need for sustainable materials at scale while continuing to offer reliable performance and quality.”<\/p>\n

Combined with Ascend’s efforts to lower its scope 1 and 2 emissions, the company’s Bioserve products offer among the lowest product carbon footprints for industrial-scale nylon 6,6 and its precursors available in the market today.<\/p>\n

“Part of our sustainability strategy is a pillar we call ‘Operating Without Compromise’,” said Chris Johnson<\/span>, Ascend’s senior director for sustainability. “It is based on a commitment to find well-rounded solutions that meet the needs of our customers and help them achieve their goals.”<\/p>\n

Ascend recently published its 2023 sustainability report<\/a>, which highlights progress against the company’s 2030 Vision.<\/p>\n
