Ann: Corporate Update - Noosa Mining Conference, page-44

You beat me to it @3steps. Thank you for this. When I first saw the photo in our Corporate Update of our caesium catalysts, I thought "Quinto" and how similar they look to BASF's catalysts. Ours is like a cross between their Quattro 04-115 (longer, more tube-shaped) and their 04-116 (ribbed, but with 5 instead of 7). I'm going to be brazen and post photos. If companies are advertising their products, hopefully they're happy for the word (and images) to be spread.

I couldn't find a photo of Dupont's with 5 ribs, but see they have a whole range of MECS catalysts, including a caesium-based one with 6 ribs. It does indeed look very similar to ours.

Dupont or any large manufacturer would be interesting, but I'd be happy for our caesium-based catalysts to be another link to BASF. Is ours 5 ribbed to differentiate it from the others or are BASF developing others?

Hahahaha, I just googled "BASF caesium catalyst research" and what turns up, but this 24 August 2021 press release:

"BASF drives innovation with new global Catalyst Development and Solids Processing Center"

"The new building is scheduled for completion by mid-2024." Well, isn't that convenient? We should be turning out plenty of caesium by then. I guess I'll have to fast-track a BASF post I've been mentally pulling together. Will be keen to hear others' thoughts. Of course, AJIMHO.
