Evaluated Alternative Alternative to 2- ethylhexanoic acid in a range of applications Versatic™ Acid 10 can replace 2-ethylhexanoic acid for use in paints, polyurethane foams, PVC plastics and more. More generally, it can be used as such, as an intermediate for organic derivatives, as a metallic salt and as an ammonium salt.
Evaluated Alternative Organotin replacement DBTL as organotin compound needs to be replaced by safer alternatives in a variety of applications.
Evaluated Alternative Cobalt replacement Cobalt carboxylates replacement for inks, coatings, composites applications.
Evaluated Alternative d2w® - Biodegradable plastic technology d2w® technology turns ordinary plastic at the end of its useful life, in the presence of oxygen, into a material with a different molecular structure. At the end of the process, it is no longer a plastic, and has changed into a material which is biodegradable (by bacteria and fungi) in the open environment. In the same way as nature's wastes and much, much faster than ordinary plastic.
Evaluated Alternative Poly(propiolactone) This is a high molecular weight (HMW) biodegradable polymer with attractive mechanical and physical properties that make it suitable for packaging and other thermoplastic applications. This aliphatic polyester is stable, easily transportable and cost-competitive.
Evaluated Alternative Isocyanates Novomer produces and develops Biocyanate™ Isocyanates through a novel route that does not require the use of the environmentally dangerous chemical phosgene. These plant-based renewable isocyanates are organic compounds that contain at least one isocyanate group, a functional group with the formula R-N=C=O.
Request Alternative to Salicylic Acid as an Accelerator We are looking for an alternative to Salicylic Acid as an accelerator for Epoxy-Amine thermoset cure due to the Harmonised Classification included in the 13th ATP to CLP.
