Performance Materials

In a context of the global development of plant-based chemistry, Roquette offers the industrial markets new, innovative and sustainable monomers to create solutions for safer and more sustainable polymers.

Innovate beyond nature with POLYSORB® - the high purity isosorbide

Roquette has developed a high purity, versatile ingredient with outstanding qualities and functionalities: POLYSORB®. This enables your polymers to be more resistant to temperature and have better mechanical and optical properties.

POLYSORB® can be used either directly as a very pure monomer or in the form of a derivative (functionalized monomer or plasticizer).

It offers valuable solutions to performance materials markets: polyesters, polycarbonates, composites and coatings, polyurethanes, TPU, etc.

 GRADES POLYSORB® PA POLYSORB® LP POLYSORB® PSA
Characteristics Versatile, applicable for many purposes Liquid form in water, easy to handle Suitable for high temperature reaction
Applications Composite-Coating, polyesters, polycarbonates, polyurethanes  Polyesters Polycarbonates, polyurethanes

Innovate sustainably with BIOSUCCINIUM® - the bio succinic acid

Succinic acid is a chemical traditionally used directly in a variety of industry applications for the production of several polymers and resins. BIOSUCCINIUM® offers a renewable alternative.

BIOSUCCIUNIUM® opens up many possibilities to create high-performing and sustainable end-products: from packaging and disposable plastic-based products to composites and coating, going through anti-corrosion and cooling fluids.

With more than 80 years of experience and know-how in plant-based polymer chemistry, Roquette’s dedicated lab teams will guide you to new horizons.

GRADES BIOSUCCINIUM®  BIOSUCCINIUM® S 
Characteristics 100% bio-based succinic acid 100% bio-based succinic acid certified for Halal, Kosher and 100% natural origin by ECOCERT
Applications Packaging, coating resins, polymer modification Suitable to synthetize high quality chemical intermediate for pharma, cosmetics and food
