* Success in making superabsorbent polymer
from bio-based acrylic acid
* Process selected for production of
3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) and
conversion to bio-based acrylic acid
LUDWIGSHAFEN, GERMANY
– MINNEAPOLIS, USA –
COPENHAGEN, DENMARK –
today announced the achievement of another milestone
in their joint development of technologies
to produce acrylic acid from renewable raw materials.
The team has demonstrated the successful conversion of
3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP),
to glacial acrylic acid and
superabsorbent polymers.
Moreover they have selected the process
for further scale-up.
