Keynote presentation at 5th IMPRES 2019

At the 5th IMPRES 2019 (October 2019), we gave a keynote lecture entitled "Commercialization of Lithium Chloride-Modified Magnesium Hydroxide for Chemical Heat Storage".

IMPRES2019 is an international symposium on materials and processes aimed at a low-carbon society, and presents and discusses the development of functional materials for fuel cells, heat pumps, heat storage, sorption systems, and their applications.
The IMPRES has been held in every three years and this is the fifth international conference after the successful completion of IMPRES2007 at Kyoto (Japan), IMPRES2010 in Singapore, IMPRES2013 in Fukuoka (Japan) and IMPRES2016 in Taormina (Italy).

We were in charge of keynote in the field of chemical heat storage. At the lecture, we announced research and development and commercialization of CHARGEMAG^® PM-1, a magnesium hydroxide / water-based chemical heat storage material developed and sold by our company.
The magnesium hydroxide / water-based chemical heat storage material we supply is highly expected as a material that has a high heat storage density, can store heat at around 300 ° C, is safe and suitable for transportation, and can store heat semipermanently.

CHARGEMAG^® PM-1 is a product which has been succeeded in lowering the heat storage onset temperature and heat storage peak temperature by about 50°C than usual magnesium hydroxide by combining metal salts.
Chemical heat storage technology can save energy by effectively using unused waste heat from factories, and contribute to urban environments and energy policies by reducing oil consumption and realizing a low-carbon society.

We are also developing products whose storage temperature is even lower than that. Please contact us for more information.
