3-Methylphthalic Anhydride (3-MPA)
3-MPA is a biobased near-drop-in replacement for petrochemical phthalic anhydride (PA). It has been shown to have beneficial effects - or comparable effects - when compared to PA in end-user products such as coatings, pigments, polyurethanes, and lubricants. 3-MPA might also find use in new end-user applications.
Call for industrial partners to perform testing of aromatic samples in products
To enable commercial production of bio-aromatics by 2025, Shared Research Center Biorizon is looking for industrial partners to perform testing of our aromatic samples in their products. The aim is to validate their application performance, compared to current industry standards. Quantities and conditions are available on request.
Biorizon co-initiator TNO is working on Diels Alder platform technology to broaden the scope of bio-aromatics. In the near future other samples of renewable aromatics than listed on this web page will become available as well.

Thanks to Biorizon’s high-quality facilities, specialized knowledge, years of experience and the successful involvement of the entire bio-aromatics value chain, we manage to produce bio-aromatics continuously (on a kg/h scale). We are currently validating our continuous processes and working with industry partners toward the next stage: demonstration. This makes Shared Research Center Biorizon the most advanced and valued research program in sustainable bio-aromatics worldwide. We offer the chemical industry an excellent platform to make the transition to a circular bio-economy.
