What we do

High-performance Polymer Solutions with up to 60% Lower Carbon Footprint

Our POM-based polymers combine sustainability with superior performance. By integrating polyoxymethylene (POM) into polyether polyols we provide a novel, innovative and more sustainable polyether polyol platform technology. Performance benefits are application dependent ranging from better material compatibility with e.g. PE or PP packaging for resulting adhesives over lower oxygen transmission rates (OTR) of coating materials to thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) with higher modulus and improved tear resistance.

Learn More

POM (Polyoxymethylene)
A high-performance engineering plastic known for its strength, stiffness, and low friction.

OTR (Oxygen Transmission Rate)
A measure of how much oxygen passes through a material, commonly used to evaluate barrier properties.

TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane)
A versatile elastomer combining the elasticity of rubber with the processability of thermoplastics.

Products

The next generation of polymers

Our current focus is particularly directed towards industrial adhesives & coatings, thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) and lubricants, but we are also always open to addressing new fields.

Lubricants

Base oils between PAGs and PAOs for lubricant formulations with e.g. higher thermal stability, particularly for industrial machinery.

Adhesives & Coatings

Industrial adhesives and coatings with better compatibility with PE, PP, PLA, enhanced recyclability and lower OTR.

TPU

TPUs with higher modulus, hardness, and tear resistance by also improving properties like OTR.

What sets us apart

Better Compatibility.
Better Recyclability.
Better Performance.

The integration of POM into our POM-polyols provides better compatibility of resulting materials with e.g. PE, PP or PLA. The POM-blocks further provide upside for enhanced mechanical as well as chemical recyclability and also additional performance benefits such as lower oxygen transmission rates.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

In comparison to conventional fossil-based polypropylene glycol (PPG) our POM-polyols provide sustainability as well as performance benefits. This includes an up to 60% lower carbon footprint. Performance advantages are application-dependent ranging from better material compatibility over better recyclability to lower OTRs and higher rigidity. In comparison to other bio-based alternatives we can offer competitive pricing at scale and a scalable and reliable production process.

Yes, indeed. Our current focus is particularly on polyurethanes for adhesives, coatings and thermoplastic PU applications as well as a novel base oil for lubricant formulations. Of course, we are always open for discussing these applications as well as novel ideas. Interested? Feel always free to reach out.

Our current main focus is on a bifunctional POM-polyol 2000. This is readily available and can be provided as a multi-kg sample. Further grades include shorter- or longer-chain polyols as well as modified/end-capped material are higher-functional polyols. However, these material samples are custom-made. We are further working on TPU granulate based on our POM-polyols 2000.
Interested in a specific polyol component or TPU or POM-polyol sample? Just let us know.
