Success Stories
Case History n. 1
ASTROBIO™ NS3, DS and NS6 are used for polymeric membranes prepration.
In particular, ASTROBIO™ DS, NS3 and NS6 are really a great and a green alternatives to NMP, DMF or DMAC when it comes to the production of fluropolymer membranes for micro-, nano- and ultrafiltration with standard techniques (NIPS and VIPS).
Nowadays, ASTROBIO™ solvents can be used for this kind of purpose, gaining a sharp improvement of workers health protection (no reprotoxicity).
Case History n. 2
ASTROBIO™ XT is used in the formulation of technical and aesthetic coatings for the automotive industry.
Among others application, we discovered that ASTROBIO™ XT is really a great and a green alternative to xylene when it comes to to the production of special paints for artificial leather refinishing.
Nowadays, some of our European clients are using ASTROBIO™ XT in this kind of application, improving labelling of the final product and getting rid of the classicals petrochemicals solvents, enhancing the ecotoxicological profile of their final formulations and their bio- based content.
Case History n. 3
ASTROBIO™ BC2 is already used in the production of household and professional detergent as a butyl glycol replacement.
Among other applications, ASTROBIO™ BC2 is really a great and a green alternative to butyl glycol in the formulation of several household and professional detergents.
Nowadays, several of our customers are using ASTROBIO™ BC2 in this kind of applications sharply improving working conditions and security for their employees and consumers, respecting local and European authorities obligations and improving labelling of their final formulations.
