Cupron Performance Additives, Richmond,Va., has launched Cupron Clear™, a transparent and stable liquid form of copper designed for microbial control across polymers, liquids and coatings. According to the company, the platform offers a safer and more sustainable alternative to traditional additives like QUATs and isothiazolinones, many of which face regulatory scrutiny. Cupron Clear can be applied in industries including personal care, hygiene, construction, textiles, plastics, paints, adhesives and sealants. Discussions with global partners are underway to bring the product to market.
“This new liquid copper platform addresses the frustrations for so many different industries and dramatically expands the applications that can enjoy the benefits of Cupron innovations,” said Cupron CEO Chris Andrews.“It’s the direct result of focused R&D and our belief that economic, safer, sustainable technologies should replace legacy materials that no longer meet regulatory or performance standards.”
