Chemical Watch 2023 Global Outlook

Polyurethane (PU) adhesives, sealants and binders are used in a variety of structural and non-structural applications.

On the US and EU markets, regulation of toys and children’s products is particularly stringent. What’s more, it’s constantly evolving, making it difficult to ensure that your products keep up with the latest standards.With more new regulations coming into force soon, TÜV SÜD’s webinar will provide an overview of key upcoming regulatory changes and proposed future alterations with a particular focus on chemical requirements.

Leachable compounds are currently only evaluated on the toxicological risk they pose to the patient. The effects that leachable compounds have on the quality and safety of pharmaceutical drug products, especially protein drug products, is often overlooked. Interactions of reactive leachable compounds with protein drug products can lead to a loss of efficiency, decrease of stability and increased immunogenicity in the patient population at risk. This webinar describes reactive leachable compounds, the scientific basis to predict leachable-protein interactions and a proof of concept.

System integrity is critical to the operation of safe, reliable and efficient production and processing facilities in the oil and gas and chemical process industries. Integrity risks come in many forms and must be addressed at the design phase and across the full lifecycle of the equipment or system in operation. This webinar aims to demonstrate the value of engineering simulation in both the design phase and during the operating phase of a process system for quantifying, managing and avoiding integrity risks associated with process system operation.
