What if araminolic resins were compatible with your applications?

Araminolic resins are polymers synthesized from polyphenols and aromatic aldehydes. Polyphenols are often naturally occurring molecules and are well known for their antioxidant properties. Among these, flavonoids or tannins, which can be found in fruit or wood, constitute monomer bases that are mostly non-toxic and derived from renewable resources. Certain aromatic aldehydes also exist in their natural state, such as 5HMF, which is derived from the dehydration of fructose, found in fruits. The chemistry of araminolic resins relies on the reactivity of these polyphenols and aromatic aldehydes to form distinctive and non-toxic polymers.

ResiCare Announces Availability of the First Samples of the Non-Toxic, Bio-Based Molecule 5-HMF for Industrial Use

ResiCare, a subsidiary of the Michelin Group, and IFPEN announced last November the development of a bio-based production process for the platform molecule 5-HMF. Non-toxic* and produced from plant-based fructose, this molecule offers industries a substitute for fossil-based products. The samples of the 5-HMF molecule produced by ResiCare are now available for industrial testing.

Working towards a safer industrial environment for future generations.

With a long experience in resin formulation, we support our customers with their transition to an industry that is more respectful of people and the environment. While solving HSE (Health, Safety & Environment) issues, MICHELIN ResiCare develops resins which take into account their ecosystem. We offer custom-made resins to improve your product performance with a minimum impact on the process.

MICHELIN ResiCare simplifies the integration of its technology for its customers, while conducting a thorough study of their needs and their environment.
