150 Years of Bayer

Science for a better life

The 150th anniversary of Bayer AG is an occasion to celebrate innovation and quality. What started as a dyestuffs factory in the Barmen district of Wuppertal is now a global corporation with more than 110,000 employees. Although that sounds like tradition and continuity, it is a success story about change. The spirit of inventiveness and the will to succeed form a bridge spanning the companys history from its origins 150 years ago to today. In the beginning there was a friendship between two men, plenty of a researchers natural curiosity and two kitchen stoves. On these, businessman Friedrich Bayer and dyer Johann Friedrich Weskott conducted experiments and eventually discovered how to make the dye fuchsine. In 1863 they established the Friedr. Bayer et. comp company. Bayer products today help to improve the quality of life for people and animals. One example is the pain reliever Aspirin, which came on the market in 1899 and remains one of Bayers top products to this day. When Bayer started selling Antinonnin, the worlds first synthetic insecticide for controlling the nun moth, in 1892, it was the start of the success story that is now Bayer CropScience. In the area of high-performance materials, the polyurethanes for foams discovered in the 1930s and the high-performance polycarbonate (Makrolon) patented in 1953 are the foundation for an everexpanding range of applications. These include lightfast polyurethane coatings, made possible by the Desmodur N family of crosslinkers invented by Dr. Kuno Wagner, and raw materials for the production of anti-corrosion coatings for ships, aircraft and automobiles. Today, high-performance materials from Bayer MaterialScience make an important contribution to conserving fossil resources. It is thanks to the invention of aliphatic polyurethane coatings that assets can be preserved for longer than ever before. Modern coating systems withstand both wind and weather, impart durability and a glossy finish. At the same time, Bayer MaterialSciences production technologies set standards in safety, quality and cost efficiency. A continuous flow of new innovations that benefit both society and the environment provides for sustainable growth. In this way, our products live up to our mission, Bayer: Science for a better life.

CAS Business Unit

Leading in polyurethanes

The Coatings, Adhesives, Specialties (CAS) Business Unit is characterized by its broad range of products and many years of experience in research and development. On this foundation, CAS takes a leading role in polyurethane raw materials, such as isocyanates and polyols, including modified systems such as polyurethane dispersions, silane-terminated prepolymers and blocked isocyanates. ity of aliphatic polyurethane systems. Examples Products manufactured from CAS raw materials are used, for instance, to coat buses, trains and ships. They have an extremely long shelf life and offer good weathering and corrosion protection. For this reason, they also are critical in the manufacturing of wind turbines, pipelines and steel structures. Our raw materials also serve various purposes in the timber processing industry. In paints and coatings they protect against discoloration and wear. Adhesive raw materials likewise are used in this segment, although they further are involved in the production of shoes and motor vehicles, and in the building industry. In the field of specialty chemicals, we produce premium polyurethane dispersions, e.g. for cosmetic formulations and hydrophilic prepolymers for medical wound dressings or functional films. Cast elastomers represent the latest addition to the product range. Apart from the conventional fields of application, the CAS business unit continues to develop its portfolio of products and system solutions toward new, lucrative market segments. These efforts are supported by the quality and versatilThis makes it possible for us not only to meet the demands of existing markets, but also to develop new markets offering promising opportunities. Our success along the way is based on intense research in our own laboratories and continuous dialog with our customers. Most of our efforts in this connection are put into eco-friendly coatings that go easier on resources and are efficient in application. We therefore focus on low-solvent, solvent-free or waterborne systems. To improve our adhesives product portfolio, we also target ecologically compatible and user-friendly systems. At the center of all our activities are our customers. Be it polyisocyanates, prepolymers, dispersion polyols or UV systems, they can profit from our many years of experience and the wealth of knowledge of our experts. At the same time, close collaboration with our customers is essential to the development of innovative solutions and new markets. include encapsulation materials for light-emitting diodes and solar systems, or moldings for optical and transparent applications.

The reaction partners

Innovation is our tradition. With the breakthrough discovery of the polyisocyanate-poly-addition process in 1937 by Otto Bayer, Bayer became a pioneer of polyurethane chemistry. 50 years ago, Bayer AG developed the first applications using polyisocyanates for the coatings and adhesives sectors. Polyurethane systems also known as DD coatings have established themselves in a number of applications. We work closely with our customers to systematically advance the state of polyurethane technology. Using market-oriented research and development, we specifically adapt our product portfolio to the increasingly stringent requirements of our customers. We want to continue our successful journey along this path with you. Acclaim and Baycoll

years. The impressive variety of product combinations allows almost unlimited design scope in the development of coating systems, casting systems and, of course, surface coatings. The legendary DD coatings are a perfect example. Our aim is to systematically expand these combination possibilities. In our product development activities, we take full account of changing market requirements as regards greater efficiency and improved quality. This is demonstrated by the development of the Desmophen NH polyaspartics. When combined with Desmodur polyisocyanates, these result in high-quality polyurea systems that are also extremely efficient in final application. The Desmophen C polycarbonate diol product portfolio has been significantly expanded in response to the widespread demand for high-quality polyurethane raw materials. Desmophen C is regarded in such applications as a formulation component and synthesis building block for the production of durable, weather-stable polyurethane systems. About the brochure The design of the brochure and the sorting of the products into the respective categories takes into account the trend towards high-solids and solvent-free polyurethane systems. The products are arranged under these headings according to the OH-content or OH-number, irrespective of the name. The technical data on the products are intended to provide a clear orientation. Further

Acclaim polyethers and Baycoll polyesters are the strong partners of Desmodur. The Acclaim and Baycoll portfolio has been specifically developed to meet the system requirements in the field of adhesive and sealant applications. Impact technology, which is unique worldwide, enables polyether polyols to be produced in a process that is far more energy-efficient than conventional processes. This conservation of resources is a very important step with regard to the further development of sustainable production processes. In addition, extremely long-chain polyethers can be obtained that are not accessible with conventional processes. These polyurethane building blocks can be used to formulate sealants with outstanding mechanical properties, for example. Desmophen Desmophen , Desmodur s other strong part
