AirCarbon™ by Newlight Technologies is a meltable, recyclable polyhydroxybutyrate resin. It is a high-performance, sustainable and carbon negative grade. It is manufactured (commercially since August 2013) using Newlight’s patented, award-winning greenhouse gas-to-plastic bioconversion technology.<br>
<ul style="padding-left: 40px;"><li>First, carbon is captured, diluted with air and brought in contact with Newlight's microorganism-based 9X biocatalyst.</li>
<li>This catalyst works by separating carbon and oxygen from an air stream containing greenhouse gas and then re-assembling those molecules into a long chain PHA-based thermoplastic material.</li>
<li>The polymer conversion yield is 9 times higher than previous greenhouse gas to PHA conversion technology.</li>
<li>It is designed for applications currently using fossil fuel-based polypropylene, polyethylene, ABS, polystyrene and TPU.</li>
<li>AirCarbon™ can be used in extrusion, blown- & cast film, thermoforming, fiber spinning and injection molding applications.</li>
<li>Potential market applications include electronics, construction and apparel.</li></ul>
