The Secret to Tailoring Phosphorus Molecules

DATE: Wednesday, October 20,2021
TIME: 11:00AM ET
REGISTER HERE

Phosphorus is ubiquitous and critical to our day-to-day life. The element is everywhere from our DNA, minerals, lubrication and many more. Phosphorus has the ability to provide solutions in many fields and understanding what phosphorus can do for you is critical to solving problems.

We will begin this webinar by discussing where phosphorus comes from and the current global supply situation. From here, we will talk about the functional use of phosphorus - and some of the tools that exist to tailor structure relationship properties - and ultimately the function of the element. The ability to tune phosphorus is critical to address a variety of academic and industrial challenges. Applications in life sciences, catalysis, lubrication, electronics and many more all benefit from the ability to work with phosphorus.  We will discuss how modulating cone angles, basicity, viscosity, thermal conductivity (amongst others) allows rational design.

In this webinar, attendees will learn about the underlying chemistry behind Solvay’s phosphine derivatives and their relevance at industrial scale. Solvay’s unique position as a safe, large-scale, phosphines manufacturer enables them to participate in multiple applications across many industries.

Solvay’s Phosphine Derivatives business is actively engaged in providing commercially relevant phosphorus products. They work hand-in-hand with academic and industrial application developers to provide real-world, sustainable solutions.

During this session, connect with Solvay to identify the optimal phosphorus molecules for your requirements.

This webinar is proudly hosted by Strem, part of Ascensus Specialties. Strem is a distributor of Solvay products.
