Cyclic Carbonate Monomers and Materials

We currently offer a suite of cyclic carbonate monomers and polyhydroxyurethane (PHU) vitrimers. The monomers use either petroleum-derived or biodegradable feedstocks along with carbon dioxide (_CO₂) gas. This enables 100% atom-efficient conversion and storage of _CO₂ into useful monomers for a variety of applications.
