Thierry Egraz is responsible for the industrialization of resins intended for reinforcing textiles for various rubber goods applications, such as tires, belts, conveyor belts and nonwovens. The main objective is to replace – at an industrial scale – the historically used resorcinol/formaldehyde resins by a non-toxic resin. Before joining Michelin Resicare, Egraz worked in R&D and technical assistance for the food packaging industry at Bostik and in polymer chemistry for textile, nonwoven and various adhesives at Dow Chemical.
