ExxonMobil Chemical Company today at Chinaplas 2008 showcased a new
product, Enable� mPE, with the potential to significantly reduce
waste and energy consumption across a broad spectrum of film
applications. Enable mPE�s innovative design reduces the amount of
raw materials needed because films can be made thinner, but with
equal strength. Enable mPE also generates less process waste than
resins used in existing film applications, and it is recyclable.
Enable mPE is ExxonMobil Chemical's newest product to improve
energy efficiency and exemplifies the company�s commitment to
providing solutions for customers. Enable mPE is ideal for
packaging that makes it easier to ship and store bottled water,
beverages, canned goods, hand soaps, detergents, health products
and beauty aids. In addition, Enable mPE�s transparency and
toughness make it particularly well-suited for agricultural
greenhouse films. �Enable mPE reduces the amount of film needed by
about 20 percent, improves film performance and, at the same time,
reduces energy consumption because it can be processed at lower
temperatures,� said Jim Harris, senior vice president, ExxonMobil
Chemical Company. �In fact, this new product can have greenhouse
gas reductions equivalent to taking 700,000 cars off the road while
saving enough energy to power 900,000 homes.� In the area of
product technology, ExxonMobil focuses its efforts on developing
new products whose characteristics are environmentally preferred.
These products span many chemical families and end uses. Examples
include products that enable downgauged plastics, longer-life and
improved air retention tires and lithium ion batteries for hybrid
and electric vehicle applications. �Our technological advances
continue to bring higher valued products to market to improve
quality of life for people all over the world,� said Harris. About
