The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) manages the BioPreferred product effort that was initiated in 2002 as part of a Farm Bill and expanded in 2008. The goal: to encourage the use of renewable feedstocks in products ranging from coatings and adhesives to cleaning agents and lubricants. As an industry leader in manufacturing polyurethanes without mercury or MOCA, we're utilizing our environmentally conscious formulating expertise to create the groundbreaking InnoGreen® BIO Series ---- liquid urethane casting resins that offer measurable carbon benefits directly reduce climate change.
Created for hand- batch and vacuum-assisted casting processes, these formulations contain 27% to 40% soy oil-based polyols, a rapidly renewable feedstock produced as a co-product of soybeans grown and processed as a food source for humans and livestock. Every InnoGreen® urethane casting resin is tested by USDA-approved independent laboratories and certified as USDA BioPreferred®-designated.
InnoGreen® polyurethanes exhibit low viscosity for easy handling/processing and demold in less than 12 hours. Once cured, the polyurethanes exhibit elongations up to 200% and tear strengths high as 115 pli. In addition to casting, the new products are ideal for overmolding biobased foams.
