The first bio-based and vegan after-treatment for polyamide and its blends in the market! MESITOL® Bio-Fix is a bio-based and vegan after-treatment for polyamide and its blends. This development is a major breakthrough for the textile industry as TANATEX is the first one to provide such an answer which does not contain any kind of Bisphenol, Phenol and Formaldehyde. Instead, we’ve replaced these normally ‘key substances’ with bio-based materials making it 87% bio-based while still being able to achieve the market’s required fastness results as well as complying to all ecological requirements.

📚 Excited to share a fascinating article: "Bioaccumulation and biotransformation of plasticisers diisononyl phthalate and di(2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate in black soldier fly larvae reared on (micro)plastic-contaminated food waste“ by Prof. Giulia Poma’s team. ✨ Food waste is currently used for the production of biogas. However, a reusage of waste is preferred to follow the principles of the circular economy and consider the waste management hierarchy, which can be achieved by rearing black soldier fly (BSF) larvae on such organic waste. Nonetheless, the presence of (micro)plastics and related additive plasticisers might induce chemical safety hazards to the larval applications as feed. Therefore, the bioaccumulation and biotransformation of two plasticisers (diisononyl phthalate (DINP) and di(2-ethylhexyl) terephthalate (DEHT)) in BSF larvae reared on food waste streams contaminated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) (micro)plastics were investigated. Results showed that BSF larvae appeared to have a moderate intake of DINP during its rearing phase of 10 days (82 - 273 ng/g), while being able to biotransform it into the primary biotransformation product monoisononyl phthalate (MINP) within 24 h. For DEHT, an uptake of 67 - 137 ng/g was measured in the BSF larvae; however, no clear biotransformation pattern was observed. In addition, while no secondary oxidative biotransformation products were found in the larvae, these were measured in the frass, leading to the hypothesis that microorganism-mediated biotransformation of plasticisers occurred. In conclusion, based on the results of this study, BSF larvae could potentially be used safely in the frame of circular economy, when reared on organic substrates contaminated with the same PVC microplastic content and sizes used.

Food waste isn't just about our leftover dinner scraps; it also includes industrial byproducts that often go unnoticed. For instance, the coffee grounds left after brewing our morning coffee ☕, the spent grain from brewing the beer 🍻 we all love, or defatted sesame seeds left behind after producing sesame oil. In this published work, we explore the properties of 3D-printed materials with such food wastes incorporated as biocomposites. We then took a step further to leverage the increased biodegradability of such materials to fine-tune drug release profiles for controlled drug release applications! 💊 https://lnkd.in/gU5FzWz2 #foodwaste #upcycling #3dprinting #drugdelivery #sustainability

Sustainable Chemical Solutions for a better tomorrow. Bio PDO for the production of sustainable PU products, coatings, adhesives, cooling fluids, cosmetics , personal care and HI&I products.
Strong statement of Erica Ording from FrieslandCampina: Drop-in solutions will not get us where we need to be. Bio-based plastics need to be as effective and efficient as possible, so there is a need to develop new plastics based on bio-based raw materials to achieve the best result for a sustainable future. #2024RMC #FrieslandCampina #Susterra #biobased #PrimientCovation #CovationBioPDO

🌿 𝗜𝘀 𝗣𝗘𝗙 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀? 🌿 As the demand for sustainable alternatives grows, 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝘆𝗲𝘁𝗵𝘆𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗮𝘁𝗲 (𝗣𝗘𝗙) is gaining attention as a 𝗯𝗶𝗼-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 and potentially superior alternative to PET. But what sets PEF apart, and why is it generating such interest? PEF is made from 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗴𝗮𝗿𝘀 rather than petroleum, significantly reducing its environmental impact. Beyond being 𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲, PEF offers some advantages over traditional PET: 👉 𝗘𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀: PEF provides 𝟲 𝘁𝗼 𝟭𝟬 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝘅𝘆𝗴𝗲𝗻 𝗯𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗿 performance than PET, meaning it preserves products like beverages for significantly longer. 👉 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲: PEF is 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿 and 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘁-𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁, opening up new possibilities for packaging in harsher conditions. 👉 𝗟𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁: Replacing PET with PEF can reduce emissions by up to 𝟱𝟬%, making it a clear choice for companies aiming to reduce their environmental impact. 𝗔𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘂𝗺’𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗬𝗫𝗬 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆, plays a key role in PEF production, efficiently converting plant sugars into 𝗙𝗗𝗖𝗔 (𝟮,𝟱-𝗳𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝘅𝘆𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗱)—the key monomer for PEF. With companies like Carlsberg and Albert Heijn already committing to PEF, its potential to disrupt the $200 billion plastics industry is clear. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿? As global pressure mounts to find alternatives to fossil-based plastics, bio-based solutions like PEF are positioned to lead the way.
