The business comprises four major sub-segments—UNIPOL® PP Process Licensing, PP Catalysts, PE Catalysts, and Chemical Catalysts, all complemented with supporting R&D and technical services. UNIPOL® PP Process Licensing is the largest independent technology licensor, offering the advantages of a gas phase process with low capital cost, mechanical simplicity, energy efficiency, and the demonstrated capability to produce differentiated resins. Grace PP Catalysts serve multiple process technologies, including UNIPOL® PP, with optimized sizes, shapes, and composition tailored for each process requirement. Grace’s PE Catalysts portfolio offers existing producers the best choice of resin properties, operability, and economics utilizing the three main systems of Metallocene, Chromium, and Ziegler-Natta catalysts. Chemical Catalysts products are used in a wide array of niche hydrogenation applications. Catalyst carriers extend Grace’s wide material science expertise in silicas, aluminas, and zeolites into several petrochemicals and fine chemicals applications. Materials Technologies CONTINUES TO INVEST FOR GROWTH, ENABLES GLOBAL PANDEMIC FIGHT During a challenging 2020, Materials Technologies held performance near 2019 results by delivering value across a diverse set of industries with wide-ranging applications. We continued to invest in growth segments aligned with global trends that include an aging population, a growing middle class in developing countries, and improved process efficiency in manufacturing and sustainability. Our products and deep technical expertise continued to prove indispensable in helping customers solve key technical challenges and solidified our leading position in niche markets. In the Pharmaceutical and Consumer markets, we combined our expertise in specialty silica and separation technology to design specialty materials for PCR (molecular test or polymerase chain reaction) test kits and mRNA vaccines used in the fight against COVID-19. In the Coatings market, we accelerated the introduction of key additives for more environmentally friendly, aqueous- based coatings formulations, enhancing our customers’ ability to meet or exceed evolving regulations. In the Chemical Processes market, we expanded our colloidal silica manufacturing network through the commissioning of a new production facility at our flagship European Manufacturing and R&D Center in Worms, Germany. We continue exploration of high-performance applications of our LUDOX® colloidal silica brand and completed an upgrade and expansion at our East Chicago, IL, site for best-in-industry research and laboratory facilities. Innovative Refining Catalyst Technologies REMAINS IN HIGH DEMAND Our Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) catalyst customers—top-notch refiners delivering fuels and petrochemical feedstocks—continue to value Grace innovation as they aim to maximize profitability, meet sustainability objectives, and adjust their product mix to meet current and future demands. Grace’s ART® Hydroprocessing catalysts technologies, provided through our joint venture with Chevron, remain in high demand as regulations around the world continue the move to cleaner-burning fuels, and transportation fuels demand increases in developing economies. These leading technology catalysts upgrade heavy oils, enabling refiners to use less-expensive feedstocks and improve their profitability. Our close relationships with our licensing partner, continuous catalyst innovations, and our new, state-of-the-art hydroprocessing catalysts manufacturing facility in Lake Charles, LA, signal our commitment to the evolving refining industry. 2 W.
