Wheat protein for sustainable aquaculture

Worldwide demand for fish is increasing. Sustainable aquaculture requires sustainable feed whose production affects the environment, for example, through the use of fish meal and fish oil resources.

Discover why and how to replace animal proteins with plant proteins in aquaculture.

What can be done to increase the glass transition temperature (Tg) of polyethylene terephthalate (PET)?

See answer

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) glass transition temperature limits its use, notably in packagings subject to heating.

By introducing POLYSORB® isosorbide as co-monomer during the resin synthesis, PEIT (polyethylene-co-isosorbide terephthalate) resin is created. POLYSORB® isosorbide introduction boosts resin temperature resisitance, enabling the use of PEIT in new demanding packaging applications.
