Novomer’s precise catalytic system in combination with our patented chain transfer technology gives us a highly flexible technology platform. Molecular weight, degree of branching, backbone rigidity, functionality and reactivity can all be precisely controlled to create polyols that meet the demands of specific applications in a wide variety of markets.
Coating Resins
Novomer’s coating resins have shown equivalent or superior cost and performance attributes compared to petroleum based resins, across several market segments.
Surfactants for Enhanced Oil Recovery
Novomer is developing breakthrough surfactants for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). Our PPC surfactants can be pumped downhole into oil wells, along with supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) to significantly increase the amount of crude oil recovered.
Foams
Novomer’s flexible polyol technology platform enables the design of low cost, sustainable CO2-based polyols with performance characteristics tailored to suit a range of flexible, rigid, and microcellular foam applications.
Adhesives
Novomer is also developing polyols that are tailored to meet the processing and end product performance demands of polyurethane adhesive applications. One component moisture cured adhesives and two component reactive adhesives are currently in development.
