Coatings & Adhesives

Performing biobased components are the key factor to decrease the carbon footprint of new formulates, providing at the same time a new combination of properties

A modern approach to designing new formulations takes into consideration the whole life cycle of products. This is particularly true for coatings and adhesives, as they are used in the manufacturing of products of every day’s use, from wood furniture to the automotive industry. Biobased components can deliver peculiar properties to formulations, representing at the same time a marketing leverage for innovation-oriented manufacturing companies.

Aminoalcohols:

For polyurethane and acrylate systems
Self-catalytic properties promoting surface hardness
Good compatibility and miscibility with existing additives
Imparting improved surface finishing

Polyols:

High molecular weight diols
For formulation purposes or prepolymer synthesis (2K or 1K PU systems)
High bio-content
High hydrolitic stability and chemical resistance
