2022-11-003 - BIOSERES - Biosourced epoxy resins

Innovative technology towards circular materials that involve the use of CO2 and waste by-product of the agriculture or food industry. This new materials, can be used in adhesives or coatings applications and constitute a real alternative to the oil-based materials found in the market. Moreover, this technology can be used for the valorization of carbon dioxide emissions contributing to climate action policies through the fixation of the CO2 molecule in the polymer material.

Market Data

Polycarbonates and polyurethanes are some of the most important materials nowadays that can be found in many applications. Despite their outstanding properties, the production os those materials involve toxic chemicals or oil-based derivatives. The demand of a greener alternative, avoiding the use of phosgene or BPA is growing and society is lloking for new technologies that fulfill al requirements of circular economy. This technology allow the acces to CO2 Bio-based materials, with excellent properties for coating or adhesive applications.
