By assembling our building blocks to polymer chains, we can introduce new breaking points. These breaking points add the sustainable and circular properties that enable easy recycling. Without causing any strength, flexibility or structural downsides to the plastic.
Oxidation takes place at 200°C. Pyrolysis requires three times more heat. The process requires no solvents, only compressed air, polymer melt, and some expertise.
They are chemical compounds called dicarboxylic acids (DCAs). Our compounds always end in oxygen molecules. These oxygen molecules function as linking units. The linking units turns our DCAs into easily reusable building blocks.
We use the oxygen-based linking units of our DCAs to integrate new functionality. Our materials are engineering plastics, ready for use at scale.
Recycling our materials through solvolysis is an elegeant process taking only a fraction of the steps needed for common recycling. This process retains 100% of the input material. Industrial composting in under 90 days.
Our building block approach allows us to take our materials apart and piece them back together.
