How a critical failure led to #Clariant's groundbreaking new SynDane 500 catalyst: Leaving behind conventional wisdom and finding inspiration in an unexpected place – that's the story behind our next-generation SynDane 500 series VPO #catalyst for #MaleicAnhydride production. The results speak for themselves: ✅ +3% maleic anhydride yield ✅ +3% improved selectivity ✅ +50% greater mechanical stability ✅ Reduced selectivity-activity-moderator consumption A 3% yield increase alone can deliver 850 additional tons/year and over 1 million CHF in value – while cutting waste. With global MA production exceeding 3 million tpy, this truly matters. 👇Read the full article published in Hydrocarbon Engineering, June 2026. #GreaterChemistry #GreaterCatalyst
