March list of new green chemicals

March saw quite a lot of new green chemicals and Huntsman seems to lead the pack. That is why I have a separate post for them.

As for the rest, here they are in no particular order:

1. Rohm and Haas microbial control - Rohm and Haas introduced KATHON™ CF 400 microbicide, a new concentrated, metal-free formulation for microbial control. KATHON™ CF 400 is targeted toward the water treatment industry to prevent or remedy fouling in cooling towers or air washers.

2. Dow specialty surfactants - Dow Chemical launched in Europe its ECOSURF EH specialty surfactants, a new generation of high performance, readily biodegradable surfactants designed for use in hard surface cleaning, textile processing, inks, paints and coatings, and agricultural chemicals.

3. PURAC and TOYOBO PLA - PURAC and its new partner TOYOBO introduced into the European market their Vyloecol®, a patented amorphous and biodegradable poly lactic acid (PLA) and is soluble in standard organic solvents.

4. Owens Corning asphalt - Owens Corning introduced enhancements for the application of durable built up roofing systems with new TruLo(R) Max Lo Odor, Low-fuming Asphalt. The asphalt trap 90% of fumes at the kettle and reduces 55% more odor-causing compounds on application.

5. Green Earth Technologies cleaner - Green Earth Technologies introduced G-CLEAN biodegradable, dissolvable pouches, a pressure washer cleaning products that can go through the pump safely for a high foaming and "greener" clean made from American-grown plant base oils.
