As VIPRISCAR comes to a close, B4Plastics shows this May 21th the outcomes and future for the production of novel sugar-based polymers, in particular the ones derived from IBMC, a bio-based monomer that can be obtained by the company at a pre-industrial scale.
B4Plastics has successfully produced batches of more than 100kg of IBMC with a purity superior to 90%. The company is interested in exploring the possibilities of this compound in different applications, in special in the production for pre-polymers for polyurethane or polycarbonate coatings.
