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.
