Evonik displays its latest solutions at Chinaplas 2026

Shanghai, China – Evonik will present its high-performance polymers and plastic additives at CHINAPLAS 2026, Asia’s largest plastics and rubber exhibition. Under the theme “WE GO BEYOND WITH plastics solutions”, Evonik will showcase its innovative achievements in sustainability, energy transition, low-altitude economy, smart manufacturing, personalized healthcare, and the circular economy.
China’s manufacturing sector is accelerating toward a high-end, intelligent, and green transformation. Material innovation has become a key enabler for high-quality and sustainable industrial development.

“Material innovation is the core driving force for industrial development and sustainable transformation. Evonik is committed to breaking the boundaries of material science through cross-industry collaboration and local R&D investment, creating more possibilities for future industrial development,” said Xia Fuliang, President of Evonik Greater China.

At CHINAPLAS 2026, Evonik will highlight its globally leading technologies, displaying a range of solutions it has tailored for the Chinese market. These solutions will especially focus on supporting the country’s strategic emerging industries such as new energy vehicles, energy storage systems, low-altitude aircraft, green hydrogen, premium consumer goods, and personalized healthcare.

With China’s new energy vehicle industry expanding rapidly, thermal management has become essential to battery safety and performance. To especially support this industry, Evonik will display its VESTAMID® PA12 materials, which offer excellent chemical resistance and high-temperature performance. These materials are widely used in battery cooling lines, busbars, and energy storage systems, and meet requirements for efficient heat dissipation and long-term stable operation. Additionally, VESTAMID® PA12 also delivers outstanding performance in data-center cooling systems, and is ideal for supporting infrastructure needed for AI and the digital economy.

Beyond thermal management, Evonik’s innovative materials are also used in core automotive components such as electric drive and transmission systems. At Evonik’s Shanghai Innovation Park, the newly operational Evonik PEEK Rectangular Magnet Wire Lab will focus on R&D for new energy vehicle motor applications — as well as the further promotion of lightweight- and high-performance solutions. A key selection of these solutions will be displayed, along with gears manufactured with VESTAKEEP® PEEK, which provide an advanced material solution for automotive transmissions, and play a valuable role in supporting the continued development of China’s new energy vehicle industry.Evonik will also showcase its innovative additive solutions for plastics recycling and processing. During mechanical recycling processes, Evonik products such as TEGO® CYCLE and TEGO® Sorb can effectively remove inks, packaging labels, and residual odors during washing and compounding. This enables the conversion of contaminated plastic waste into high-quality recyclates. Additionally, Evonik’s TEGO® PPA processing aids provide a PFAS-free solution to improve packaging quality and environmental sustainability.

The CHINAPLAS event will also feature an expert from Evonik’s Smart Effects business line, who will deliver a keynote titled “Evonik Silica in plastics industry — Essential, Sustainable, and Safe” at 15:40 on April 21 at Hall 2.2 – J80, as part of the “Tech Talks – 2026 New Materials” session.

Evonik welcomes customers and partners to visit its booth in Hall 7.2-C31 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) from April 21 to 24. There, visitors can further explore the company’s innovative materials and application solutions for future industries. Customers and partners are also invited to follow the official Evonik WeChat account for the latest updates.
