Summer Surfboards and Flip Flops: The Digest’s 2020 Multi-Slide Guide to Algenesis’s Algae-Sourced Polyurethanes

Surf boards, flip flops, and other products made from algae? Yes, it can be done and is being done. With the commercial development of the first 50% renewable, 100% biodegradable flip flop made from algae, Algenesis is on on track to change the way we look at polyurethanes.

Michael Burkart from UC San Diego and Algenesis Materials shared this illuminating presentation at ABLC Digital on the first algae polyols, algae biomass to azelaic acid, algae polyurethane synthesis, renewable isocyanates, the algae polymer carbon cycle, and more.
