Technology and Co-Innovation

Innovating with partners to develop breakthrough technologies

Creating a fully hydrogen-powered aircraft capable of nonstop global flight is a monumental challenge. As a key partner in Climate Impulse, Syensqo brings deep expertise in material science and engineering to support this revolutionary goal. And this mission pushes our technology to new heights! 

Our composite materials, for example, are crucial for the structure of Climate Impulse, from fuselage to wings and hydrogen tanks. As for green hydrogen, our high-performance materials can be key enablers for exceptionally high-power density, and to allow a more compact design of the plane.

What excites us most is that this project requires Syensqo to address the complexities of sustainable aviation fuels and hydrogen storage, such as maintaining liquid hydrogen at -253°C for extended flights. By collaborating with Climate Impulse, UM6P and OCP Group, and a range of technical partners, we are developing high-performance materials that enhance fuel cell efficiency and optimize the plane’s weight and fuel economy, advancing the industry’s use of green hydrogen.

Through open innovation and ongoing lab testing, our collaboration with Climate Impulse promises to accelerate advancements in hydrogen aviation and extend the benefits of these breakthroughs to the broader mobility sector.
