Evaluated Alternative CTO – Crude tall oil Crude tall oil (CTO) by Stora Enso is a special source of bio-based products. It is extracted from Nordic Softwood – a natural, renewable resource from our sustainably managed North European forests – during the kraft pulping process. This valuable ingredient of the wood is a mixture of fatty acids, rosin and other neutral compounds. The crude tall oil can be further refined to different fractions like fatty acids, rosins and sterols. These intermediates can be used in a wide variety of applications and products across various industrial and consumer markets. In addition, CTO can be refined and turned into biofuels replacing fossil-based fuels.
Evaluated Alternative SCHUTZENCIDE-MT Amine based Biocide SCHUTZENCIDE-MT is Quaternary compound free, aldehyde free biocidal amine having broad spectrum efficacy against bacteria, viruses & fungal attack
Evaluated Alternative Surfactant Synergist, GlucoSpike™ cuts 1,4 dioxane, improves surfactant IFT GlucoSpike™ is a surfactant synergist product that replaces up to 70% of the surfactants used in a formula while enhancing surfactant performance. GlucoSpike™ contains no 1,4 dioxane and can help acheive lower overall 1,4 dioxane levels in overall formulations. GlucoSpike™ is 100% biobased and biodegradable. This product can lower IFT, increase wetting, and can help with odor control, all while cutting cost.
Evaluated Alternative NatSurFact All Natural BioSurfactant NatSurFact™ is a novel, sulfate- and phosphate-free line of biosurfactants that outperforms petroleum-based conventional surfactants in a variety of commercial applications. All natural, with low eco-toxicity, low irritation, and readily biodegradable, NatSurFact™ is based on biosynthesized rhamnolipids. With orders of magnitude lower critical micelle concentrations than industry standard ingredients, NatSurFact™ is a more cost-effective ingredient for industries ranging from personal care and household cleaners to agriculture and manufacturing.
Request Green solvents for industry and bio fuels Our company Brockley Group is the leading supplier of solvents to industry in Ireland. We are looking for green alternatives for all the products we supply and are keen to develop long term relationships with producers. Specifically we require a source of green Methanol for the Irish bio-fuels and pharmaceutical industries. We would be pleased to hear more about your company and the alternatives you have or are developing.
Evaluated Alternative Polyhydroxides (Polyols) Bio-replacements for polyesters, flexible and rigid foams, paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants, elastomers and more.
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.
Evaluated Alternative Glacial Acrylic Acid Bio replacement for propylene-based glacial acrylic acid for polymers, acrylates, resins, plastics, fibers, paints, coatings, adhesives, elastomers and others.
Evaluated Alternative Cyrene a biobased alternative to NMP, DMF and similar solvents Cyrene is a bioderived dipolar aprotic solvent and a safe alternative to petrochemical derived solvents such as NMP, DMF and DMAC
Evaluated Alternative Highly Effective Chrome-free Corrosion Inhibitor for Coatings Using our patented and award-winning technology, Hexigone produces safer and smarter, corrosion inhibiting pigment which answers the industry’s search for a functional, highly effective and versatile additive to replace and exceed the performance of hexavalent chromate. Given REACH legislation banning the use of hexavalent chromate within the UK, Hexigone aims to replace toxic chemicals used in the anti-corrosion market with our disruptive micro/nano reservoir technologies, creating ‘smart’ coatings. Our additives will enable coatings to protect for longer in an intelligent manner, increasing the lifetime cycle of the end product, reducing the drain on primary resources.
