Polymers and naturalness in cosmetics
Cosmetics
Polymers are regularly associated with synthetic materials, plastics and fossils. However, they are present in nature and have been used by human being since the dawn of time. Indeed, silk, proteins or cellulose are all natural polymers. Thus, many consumers are unaware that their cosmetic products contain polymers and especially, that these polymers can be of natural origin! Adrien Faure, expert at PolymerExpert, explains the use of polymers in the cosmetic industry.

Chemical reverse engineering of polymers: a strategic ally for your innovation processes.
Research & development
Reverse engeineering of polymers consists in the study and analysis of a formulation or a mixture to obtain its composition. It allows to determine the nature and the quantity of the raw materials forming a product.
Poly(hydroxyurethane)s: biosourced isocyanate-free polyurethanes
Research & development
Polyurethanes (PUs) were discovered in the 1930s by Otto Bayer and were mainly used to replace natural rubbers during World War II. Their worldwide production represents 25.1 million tons in 2019.

Mass optimization with composite materials
Research & development
The automotive, aeronautics and space sectors are not subject to the same constraints in terms of economics, mechanics or part sizes. However, they are all concerned by the issue of weight reduction, which mechanically generates a reduction in fuel costs but also a considerable environmental impact.
