Latvian State Institute of Wood Chemistry announces an auction of intellectual property "Technology of ROPET polyols synthesised from renewable and recycled resources"

Within the framework of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) research results commercialisation project No 1.2.1.2/16/I/001/ KC-PI-2020/49 "Commercialisation of Rapeseed Oil and Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate Polyols Synthesis (ROPET)", scientists of the Latvian State Institute of Wood Chemistry (LSIWC) have developed the technology of ROPET polyols synthesised from renewable and recycled resources, and are currently offering to purchase a licence to use this technology.

Object of commercialisation: The right to use the technology for ROPET polyols synthesised from renewable and recycled resources.

Developed by: LSIWC Polymer Laboratory

Information for interested parties:

The interested party is invited to participate in the auction by making an offer for the purchase of the technology.

The successful bidder will be the bidder with the highest bid for the auctioned item.

The auction object:

ROPET

Latvian State Institute of Wood Chemistry has developed a polyol synthesis technology ROPET. ROPET provides technology for acquiring environmentally friendly polyols from renewable resources and recycled materials. ROPET is produced from recycled PET and bio-based feedstock – rapeseed oil. ROPET is a recycled and renewable content polyol series, which is a key component in polyurethane foams - insulation material in panels, heating pipes and spray foam for building insulation. ROPET offers material based on recycled resources, possessing good properties as a base polyol for rigid polyurethane foam insulation. ROPET can reach a competitive price target compared to petrochemical-derived polyols with similar properties.
