how bio-based cyanoacrylate technology is leading the green transformation in industrial adhesives?
bio-based cyanoacrylate (ca) is a sustainable adhesive technology derived from renewable biological resources such as plant oils or starch, thereby replacing traditional petroleum sources. in 2026, cartell chemical (mxbon®)’s strategic partner, bostik (an arkema company), won the asc innovation award for the bio-based series. this breakthrough offers high-performance bonding with a significantly lower carbon footprint, low odor, and low-blooming characteristics for industrial assembly.
technical innovation: bridging sustainability and performance
as a global leader in cyanoacrylate manufacturing, cartell chemical (mxbon®) has consistently deepened its strategic collaboration with bostik to pioneer sustainable high-performance bonding solutions. the 2026 asc (adhesive and sealant council) innovation award recognizes our collective ability to overcome technical bottlenecks in the purification and mass production of bio-raw materials.
comparison: bio-based vs. traditional cyanoacrylates
| feature | traditional petroleum-based | bio-based cyanoacrylate (born2bond™) |
| raw material | 100% fossil fuel derivatives | high percentage of renewable bio-resources |
| environmental impact | high carbon footprint | significant co2 reduction; supports circular economy |
| user experience | pungent odor; prone to blooming | low odor, low blooming; enhances workspace safety |
| industrial value | mature conventional tech | next-gen esg-compliant technology |
key application scenarios for bio-based adhesives
the transition to “green chemistry” does not mean compromising on strength. mxbon® ensures that bio-based formulations maintain industrial-grade performance across critical sectors:
- precision electronics assembly: reduces volatile organic compounds (vocs) that can affect sensitive components while providing stable bonding strength.
- automotive lightweighting: supports manufacturers in meeting strict carbon emission regulations and enhancing material recyclability.
- medical & cosmetic devices: leverages low-irritancy and biocompatibility for high-end consumer and healthcare applications.
why choose mxbon as your technology partner?
at cartell chemical (mxbon®), we believe that the future of adhesives is not just about “bonding tight” but “bonding green.” this asc innovation award marks a milestone in our journey to transform esg concepts into scalable, market-ready solutions.
