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.
Dicyclopentenyloxyethyl acrylate (DCPOEA) is a functional acrylate monomer featuring a rigid dicyclopentyl ring and a reactive acrylate group. It is widely used in UV-curable coatings, adhesives, inks, and specialty polymer formulations to enhance hardness, chemical resistance, and thermal stability.
Tetrakis(1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl)1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylate is a high-performance hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) widely used in polymer and coating industries. It protects plastics, coatings, and elastomers from UV-induced degradation, ensuring long-term durability and color retention.
Vinyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane is a silicon-based organosilicon compound featuring reactive vinyl groups. It is commonly used as a monomer or crosslinker in silicone polymer synthesis, surface modification, and high-performance elastomer formulations.
Poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PEMA) is a transparent, lightweight acrylic polymer known for its good flexibility, chemical resistance, and excellent film-forming properties. It is widely used in coatings, adhesives, dental materials, inks, and specialty polymer formulations.
Polyurethane is a versatile polymer formed by the reaction of polyols and isocyanates, available in flexible, rigid, and elastomeric forms. It is widely used in foams, coatings, adhesives, sealants, elastomers, and various industrial and consumer applications due to its durability, flexibility, and excellent mechanical performance.
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS, 10 cSt at 25 °C) is a low-viscosity silicone fluid known for its excellent thermal stability, chemical inertness, hydrophobicity, and smooth flow behavior. It is widely used in lubrication, surface modification, mold release, microfluidics, and materials research.
Traditional polyurethane is a synthetic polymer made with petrochemicals and toxic isocyanates and is hard to recycle.
Polaris™, developed by Matereal beginning with non-isocyanate polyurethane (NIPU) for adhesives and coatings is a biobased alternative to polyurethane made with renewable resources like plants, recycled monomers, carbon emissions, and no isocyanates and can drop into traditional manufacturing.

GreenMantra has developed a special polymer additive from plastic waste for asphalt roofing, called the CERANOVUS® A series which enhances the roofing performance in terms of Environment, Engineering, and Economics. Used as a co-modifier in SBS (styrene butadiene styrene), APP (atactic propylene) modified asphalt, and oxidized asphalt, CERANOVUS® A additives enhance high temperature and structural stability while reducing formulation costs.
Polypropylene (PP) granules and powders are versatile thermoplastic materials derived from propylene monomers. These granules and powders are utilized in various applications, including packaging, automotive components, textiles, and consumer goods. They are produced through polymerization processes, resulting in small, pellet-like granules that serve as foundational building blocks for numerous products.
