Foaming Agents

PFAS regulation. Should they stay, or should they go? Legislative insights offer answers to common questions.

There are many great qualities lignin possesses. This natural polymer is a potential alternative to fossil-fuel-derived plastic but comes with its fair share of challenges and hold-ups.

Polycarbonate (PC) is an essential thermoplastic renowned for its clarity and durability, making it widely used across various applications.

Foam plastic insulation offers numerous benefits, making it an excellent choice for a variety of applications.

Recycling has become a turning point for environmental sustainability, reducing waste, and conserving natural resources. However, not all materials are equally easy to recycle.

Lignin, a significant byproduct of the pulp and paper industry, accounts for approximately 75 million tons of waste annually. This vast quantity of waste presents both a challenge and an opportunity.

The rapid increase in industrial and domestic waste makes polyurethane (PU) recycling a critical topic of study. Innovative recycling strategies are essential to manage this substantial plastic waste.

Polyurethane (PU) Insulation is highly efficient and widely employed. The escalating demand for energy consumption standards underscores the need to repower it.

Polyurethane (PU) is a highly adaptable polymer recognized in the biomedical field. Its ability to be tailored by adjusting its soft and hard segments grants it superior mechanical strength and biocompatibility.

Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) stands out as a promising alternative to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as “forever chemicals,” due to its lower environmental impact while maintaining similar benefits.
