The speciality chemicals group ALTANA has acquired a stake in the tech startup SARALON. The young company specializes in the development of inks for printing electronics. In addition, it offers prefabricated electronic components that enable printers to quickly build capacities for printing electronics. The parties have agreed not to disclose the investment sum. SARALON's functional inks can already be used to print batteries, for example. The products are also utilized in the logistics industry. Printed electronic sensors in packaging measure humidity, temperature, and pressure, among other things. This enables efficient and sustainable monitoring of cold chains, for instance. By investing in SARALON as part of its corporate venturing strategy, ALTANA is bucking the trend and promoting technology-driven startups that have high growth potential.

Speciality chemicals group ALTANA is expanding its already launched Cubic Ink 3D printing material families with new high-performance resins. The two new resin-based Cubic Ink 3D printing material series 'High Performance' and 'Prototyping' offer high heat resistance, toughness, and flexibility, among other things, in this material segment. Prototyping dental and transparent materials with an adjustable refractive index round out the portfolio. The Cubic Ink printing materials combine process-friendly properties such as low viscosity and resin stability with properties that enable them to be used as final components. ALTANA thus offers a resin portfolio for manufacturer-independent use in any resin-based 3D printing technologies. In addition, its property profile is intended for the end application - special focus is placed on ageing and chemical resistance in particular. The low viscosity of the resins, among other things, permits reliable processing in time- and cost-efficient printing processes for high-performance products. Printing properties and processes can be individually adapted depending on the printer and customer requirements. There are four High Performance material series. With heat deflection temperatures exceeding 190 degC, VP 1 rigid, solid material series are designed for use in demanding applications at very high temperatures, that is, very high HDT values and stability over a long period of time even in the high temperature range. VP 2 series are solid and thermoforming materials for end-use applications; fast printing thanks to low viscosity and a wide range of applications thanks to adjustable mechanical and thermomechanical properties. VP 3 series are materials with adjustable softness that permit high deformations, that is, materials that can be used flexibly even at low temperatures. VP 4 series are high-resolution materials striking a good balance between heat resistance and brittleness at low viscosity, plus good mechanical and thermomechanical properties as well as adjustable properties, so that fast yet high-resolution printing is achieved with great design freedom. There are also four Prototyping material series. Tough series (600 VP) is very high-resolution materials for prototyping and general applications with good chemical stability vis-a-vis aqueous systems and maximum design freedom. Rigid series (200 VP) is dimensionally stable materials for functional prototyping with adjustable rigidity. Dental series (100 VP) is materials that can be used in dental applications for efficient and high-resolution printing with adjustable rigidity and uncomplicated post-processing for maximum design freedom. Clear series (401 VP) is materials that have special optical effects with high transparency as well as an adjustable refractive index. The resin-based Cubic Ink printing material families now being presented expand the range of applications of ALTANA AG's pioneering solutions for industrial 3D printing. The Cubic Ink printing material families for industrial production open up entirely new possibilities for users in the automotive and aerospace industries in particular, as well as in medical technology (including dental medicine and orthopaedics) in the manufacture of their products.
