PolyBERT treats chemical structures and connectivity of atoms as a form of chemical language and uses techniques inspired by natural language processing to extract the most meaningful information from chemical structures.
Improvements made to the processability of polyamide oligomers resulted in the discovery of a novel soft segment chemistry that is viable not just for waterborne coating application but for elastomers, adhesives, and possibly other urethane applications
Polyurethanes with tertiary polyamide segments have excellent abrasion resistance coupled with high hardness, good hydrolytic stability, improved barrier properties and strong adhesion to various polar substrates.
BASF produces high-performance UV acrylic hotmelt acResin® with a zero and low product carbon footprint by applying its biomass balance approach and using renewable feedstock.
After an in-depth summary of different catalyst processes for organosilane chemistries, catalyst evaluations of three organosilane chemistries is presented to address tin catalyst environmental and toxicity issues.
Evaluating the performance and key characteristics of CNSL-based polyols in the formulation of various PU systems, including protective coatings, adhesives, and foams.
Cardolite has developed a series of solvent-free and low-viscosity bio-based polyols, which are successfully used in various applications such as PU foams and adhesives.
