Gemini Surfactants High efficiency surfactants from non-toxic source for use in detergents, paints, plastics, etc. These surfactants can be used at significantly lower concentrations yet provide the same cleansing and lubrication effects.
Green Admixture for Cements Novel, low cost concrete additive that increases the strength of concrete formulations up to 30% and reduces CO2 emissions. The additives have potential applications in ready-mix concrete, as well as in the high-strength concrete, pipe and brick, and precast markets.
Metal-Free Hydrogenation Catalysts A solution that eliminates the need to use toxic homogeneous metal catalysts for hydrogenation reactions. This green hydrogenation method conserves energy and resources.
Switchable Solvents and Surfactants Green and less expensive alternatives to costly and environmentally damaging compounds for use in a broad range of chemical manufacturing processes. By invoking a simple chemical trigger, our switchable solvents and surfactants can be repeatedly cycled between their “on” and “off” forms.
Precursors for Atomic Layer DepositionVolatile copper complexes which, despite being thermally stable, deposit atomic layer films of copper metal on surfaces with excellent control and precision when exposed to a co-reactant. These films find predominant use in advanced microelectronics as miniature interconnects inside chips.
Sustainable Chemistry SummitThank you to all of our sponsors, speakers, moderators, and delegates for making GreenCentre's inaugural Sustainable Chemistry Summit a success! Stay tuned for more information on Sustainable Chemistry Summit 2013.
