The “Green Polymer Fillers” project, a partnership with the SP Pesquisa e Tecnologia Ltda company with financing from EMBRAPII, involves producing polymer additives from roasting and pyrolyzing biomass. The goal is to develop sustainable, high-performance and low-cost polymer fillers with low environmental impact to use in composite materials to replace the raw materials traditionally used in areas including manufacturing, engineering, the construction sector, consumer goods, and the automotive sector. “For SP, this partnership with EMBRAPII/SEBRAE/CNPEM is a watershed in its R&D&I trajectory for manufacturing,” says one of the company’s partners, Lucio Christiansen.
