National Renewable Energy Laboratory Develops Resin for Recyclable Wind Turbine Blades

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) see a realistic path forward to the manufacture of bio-derivable wind blades that can be chemically recycled and the components reused, ending the practice of old blades winding up in landfills at the end of their useful life. The findings are published in […]

Rheology Control: Novel Use of Pyrogenic Fumed Silica in Wind Turbine Adhesives

With over 50 years of experience, WACKER is a pioneer in producing pyrogenic silica under the brand name HDK®. The company’s integrated production system, statistical process control, and highly efficient reactor dynamics combine to create an exceptionally pure and high-performing pyrogenic silica. WACKER creates its pyrogenic silica through hydrolysis of chlorosilane in an oxygen-hydrogen flame. […]
