Sustainable Chemicals Summit: From Innovation to Industrial Scale
The Sustainable Chemicals Summit will bring together leaders from industry, government, academia, and the investment community to explore how the UK can accelerate the transition to a more sustainable chemicals and materials sector.
Our presence at the eventIf you are attending and have an interest in surfactants, please reach out to our commercial director Simon Bennett to learn more about Recreaire carbonate ethoxylates, a new family of surfactants.
Recreaire is a platform technology based on carbon dioxide rather than fossil-based and oleo-based carbon. This technology can deliver both workhorse surfactants and tailored molecules, including fatty alcohol ethoxylate (FAE) alternatives and other ethoxylated surfactants such as ethoxy sulfates. Incorporating CO2 into surfactants adds new properties to the molecules, bringing unique benefits to a wide range of products and applications.
