“Implementing AI into our R&D process means we can optimise Polaris™ production for use in an incredibly wide range of applications and tailor it to our customers’ needs.” Our CEO Jacqueline Ros Amable talked to Springwise about using #AI to create less toxic and less carbon intensive polyurethane, through our chemical technology platform Polaris™. Find us in the Springwise Innovation Library alongside other great companies working to change the #MaterealWorld ✦

Kudos to the Matereal team for disrupting the manufacturing value chain starting from the very beginning: dephasing plastics before they enter the stream. 👩🏽🔬

🌍🤖 How can #AI help create cleaner plastics? Matereal’s AI-driven R&D has led to Polaris, a sustainable, non-toxic polyurethane made from renewable and recycled resources and captured CO2. This eco-friendly alternative is as versatile and affordable as traditional polyurethane but is much less polluting and almost a million times less toxic.🌱💡 Discover how Matereal is transforming the textile industry and beyond by clicking the link below ⬇️ #GreenTech #Plastic #Innovation #InnovationThatMatters Jacqueline Ros Amable Philip Pienkos

🧱 Concrete is one of the most widely used materials in construction – but it also generates eight per cent of the world's carbon emissions. Could we use bacteria to change that? Researchers from Fraunhofer IKTS, led by Dr. Matthias Ahlhelm, found that cyanobacteria (previously known as blue-green algae) can be used in mixtures to create a carbon-capturing base for greener building materials.🦠 Click below for the full story ⬇️ #Construction #ClimateChange #BioTech #Innovation #InnovationThatMatters

🌍 Dementia diagnoses are on the rise globally, driven by ageing populations and improved awareness and diagnostic tools. In Canada, medical AI company RetiSpec is at the forefront of early Alzheimer’s detection, using eye exam images to diagnose the disease years before clinical symptoms appear. RetiSpec's AI analyses data-rich images from routine eye exams to detect toxins linked to Alzheimer’s. Early detection allows individuals to access preventive drugs and care options sooner. Most emerging dementia drugs target early stages, making accurate diagnoses essential to slow disease progression. #AlzheimersDisease #DiagnosticTool #EyeBased #NeurodegenerativeDisease #EarlyDetection #BrainHealth #CognitiveHealth #AlzheimersAwareness #Neuroscience #MedicalInnovation
