Sustainable polymer construction materials from agricultural waste. Agricultural waste is the world's most abundant petroleum alternative for transformation into environmentally friendly bio-based materials for the construction sectors. Bringing together complimentary research expertise between academia and industry, this project aims to address this opportunity and develop technologies that economically convert agricultural wastes to crude-oils to produce bio-based resins, adhesives and polyure ....Sustainable polymer construction materials from agricultural waste. Agricultural waste is the world's most abundant petroleum alternative for transformation into environmentally friendly bio-based materials for the construction sectors. Bringing together complimentary research expertise between academia and industry, this project aims to address this opportunity and develop technologies that economically convert agricultural wastes to crude-oils to produce bio-based resins, adhesives and polyurethane. This project expects to produce ready-to-use, total replacements for petroleum-based construction materials. This should provide significant benefits including supporting Australian manufacturing by delivering technologies for sustainable and rapid adoption in the construction, resin and coating industries.
