FUTURE PROJECTS (LIGNIN AND POLYOLS)
PROJECT | PROJECT TITLE | PROJECT DESCRIPTION | OBJECTIVES | START DATE |
|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Synthesis Of Cellulose Foam | Extraction of cellulose from wood/paper waste and synthesis of this resin into flexible cellulose based flexible foam | Polychem would like to develop this technology for future commercialization | ASAP |
2 | Conversion Of Pet Waste Into Polyester Polyol | Through the glycolycis process, PET waste obtained from water bottles will be processed and concerted into polyester-based polyol | To use polyester polyol for polyurethane foam production | Q3-Q4 2015 |
3 | Extraction Of Lignin From Hog Fuel (Tree Bark) | Explore and enhance % of lignin extract from hog fuel and convert into reusable liquid lignin | Use of lignin liquid in polyurethane and other polymers | ASAP |
4 | Wood-Based Pultrusion Composites | Use of wood waste dust or powder in pultrusion of variety of plastics | Develop technology for licensing mix high % of wood dust/powder in plastic compounding for pultrusion process | OPEN |
5 | Lignin-Based Polyol And Polyurethane Products | Synthesis of polyols from lignin | Synthesis of polyols from lignin and produce rigid PU parts Incorporate into PRT | OPEN |
