Matt's take: Polystyrene supplier Styron introduced its CO2RE foaming technology to great fanfare last fall. The process uses carbon dioxide as a physical foaming agent during extrusion of rigid PS ...

Researchers from CERM (Center for Education and Research on Macromolecules) at the University of Liège have just developed an innovative process for producing isocyanate-free, recyclable and biobased ...

Yanfeng Automotive Interiors — the new Johnson Controls Inc. and Yanfeng Automotive Trim Systems Co. joint venture — has formulated a direct one-step back-foaming process for auto interior paneling.

GENEVA, Switzerland—DuPont's Mobility & Materials unit has introduced a new closed-cell elastomer foam produced via a supercritical fluid (SCF) foaming process. The "fully recyclable material" is said ...

A couple of years ago, as I was cleaning my bedroom, I came across a wad of shriveled foam in a small paper cup. It immediately brought back memories of one of my high school science experiments. I ...

Three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures assembled with one- or few-layered ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) crystals have triggered great interest in energy and environmental applications. Here, we ...

Researchers have just developed an innovative process for producing isocyanate-free, recyclable and biobased polyurethane (PU) foams by using a rapid foaming technology from room-temperature ...
