RAWS is a masterbatch technology incorporated at 1–2% loading during standard plastic manufacturing. It introduces a redox catalyst that initiates polymer chain scission under defined conditions ,heat and humidity and/or moisture. Terminal bio-assimilation produces CO₂, CH₄, H₂O, biomass, and mineral salts. No microplastic fragments are generated.
Binder and adhesive industries, heavily reliant on fossil fuels, are at a crossroads, facing critical environmental and regulatory pressures that demand immediate and decisive action to reduce GHG emissions. Many adhesives are becoming highly regulated, including the most common (formaldehyde-based binder) used in building products which has been deemed a Class 1 carcinogen responsible for 57.6 M metric tons of CO2e annually.
