Early-stage life cycle assessment in SUSBIND
The SUSBIND project aims to develop a new bio-based adhesive system for particleboard and medium density fibreboard (MDF) that achieves two main environmental goals: a 5% lower carbon footprint; lower human health impacts compared to the benchmark. In a previous blog, CE Delft explained how progress towards these environmental goals is monitored and how life […]
SCI SUSBIND in the Surface Coatings International Journal
Our project SUSBIND got featured in the Surface Coatings International (SCI)– Journal of the Oil and Colour Chemists’ Association. We are sharing the original version here with you: “SUSBIND: Carbohydrate conversion to highly reactive intermediate chemicals for adhesives”
Sulfuric Acid-Catalyzed Dehydratization of Carbohydrates for the Production of Adhesive Precursors
SUSBIND develops the chemical syntheses for producing the carbohydrate-based amino-plastic, and other wood resin systems. This will polymerise urea and other monomers using intermediates derived from high-purified carbohydrates during WP1. This allows investigation of the reactions of the carbohydrates during resin synthesis and to test other modification reactions. This should deliver precursors suitable for using […]
JOIN US ON 8 JUNE 2021 FOR THE EU GREEN WEEK EVENT ONLINE TO DISCUSS HOW TO ACHIEVE ZERO POLLUTION OF AIR, SOIL AND WATER
The Market-driven Circular & Bioeconomy EU Green Week Partner Event brings together both science and industry of five European projects based on in the fields of low impact forestry & agriculture, low/no fossil chemistry and decarbonised transport. These include BIOVEXO Project – Biopesticides to fight Xylella, SUSFERT – SUStainable FERTtilisers, SUSTAINair – Sustainable aerospace value […]
