The chemical industry is one of the most important economic sectors in industrialized nations, with a high level of innovation. It has made a significant contribution to economic prosperity, and current social challenges such as climate protection and sustainable use of resources cannot be solved without forward-looking developments and inventions from the chemical industry.
