PCD_BENEBiOL™

Biomass-based polycarbonatediol with superior characteristics

Polycarbonatediol(PCD) is a linear polycarbonate with hydroxyl groups at both ends. It easily reacts with isocyanate compounds(e.g. MDI, TDI, IPDI, H12MDI), and generates polymers with characteristics such as durability and chemical/hydrolysis resistance.

BENEBiOL™ is the biomass-based PCD developed by our proprietary manufacturing technology. Because of “key monomer“ of each grade, polyurethane resins based on BENEBiOL™ will show an outstanding property level with regard to flexibility and chemical/stain resistance for example, in addition to the characteristics of conventional PCD. Besides, your product will be equipped with unique touch and feeling.

Furthermore, BENEBiOL™ enables your product to be more sustainable, as some of raw materials of BENEBiOL™ are biomass-based.
