SIBUR Uses Proprietary Technology to Produce High-Performance Plastic
MOSCOW, RUSSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 24 July 2025 – SIBUR, Russia's largest polymer producer, has begun manufacturing a high-performance plastic, polyphthalamide (PPA), based on its proprietary technology. This material features a unique combination of strength, stability, and resistance to aggressive environments. Thanks to these properties, PPA is widely used in the production of packaging films for food and pharmaceutical products, as well as in the manufacturing of automotive engine compartment parts and electrical equipment components. PPA can also be used in pumps, compressors, and industrial fittings, where high strength and chemical resistance are required. SIBUR is also developing other types of high-performance plastics, including polyetherketoneketone (PEKK), polyarylsulphones (PSU, PPSU, PESU), and polyphenylene sulphide (PPS). The company's scientific advancements create opportunities to scale up proprietary technologies and establish production of these materials in Russia. ADVERTISEMENT High-performance plastics – which retain their properties at elevated temperatures and in aggressive environments – sit at the top of the polymer materials pyramid. At the base of this pyramid are commodity polymers, the most common being polyethylene and polypropylene, while the middle tier is occupied by engineering plastics such as polycarbonate and polyamide. Products made from high-performance plastics are 40%–50% lighter than aluminium and titanium parts while offering high strength, heat resistance, and mechanical durability. Replacing metals with polymers typically leads to fuel savings, reduced carbon emissions, and increased payload capacity. These materials also feature high chemical resistance, excellent impact strength, flame and smoke resistance, and non-toxicity, critical attributes for the aerospace and shipbuilding industries. Their excellent biocompatibility and radiolucency also make them highly sought after in the medical field, including for the production of advanced implants and prosthetics. The development of innovative synthetic materials, along with the design of proprietary catalysts and specialised components to control polymer properties, is a key element of SIBUR's scientific and technological development strategy.

HDM Energies and Paragon Bank launch £100m solar finance scheme
HDM Energies has announced a strategic partnership with FTSE 250 lender Paragon Bank, which will unlock up to £100 million in funding to support rooftop solar installations for UK small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The agreement marks what the two companies describe as a first in the UK asset finance sector: a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) tailored for SMEs. Backed by Paragon Bank, the facility enables businesses to install rooftop solar panels at no upfront cost, while accessing discounted, fixed-rate energy prices over terms of 10 to 25 years. 'This is a major milestone in our journey to 2.5GW of rooftop solar by 2030,' said Dan Rogers, founder of HDM Energies, who described the partnership as adding 'a strong layer of confidence for our customers'. The scheme includes a full site survey, with HDM Energies funding, installing and maintaining the solar system throughout the contract period. Customers pay only for the solar energy they use, at a predictable rate, and can benefit from lower energy costs from day one. Surplus energy not consumed on-site is exported to the National Grid. Rogers said the offering removes the burden of capital expenditure and addresses a market 'underserved by traditional energy providers'. He added that HDM's model was designed to deliver 'real value to businesses nationwide', citing support from installation partners and sister company HDM Solar, which supplies the hardware. Andy Craggs, Head of Green Energy Finance SME Lending at Paragon Bank, said the partnership reflects growing demand for clean energy solutions that offer both environmental and financial returns. 'Finding a way to unlock clean sustainable energy in the SME space is essential for the UK,' he said, adding that HDM's work is already generating 'immediate and tangible cost savings' across a range of sectors including manufacturing, education, and hospitality. The PPA model, both firms argue, signals a shift in asset finance — from transactional lending to long-term, impact-driven partnerships aligned with national net zero goals.
