 | Seeking safe and effective outdoor mosquito solutions |
|
Seeking safe and effective outdoor mosquito solutions to help consumers enjoy their yard and outdoor spaces without the annoyance and inconvenience of mosquito bites. Mosquitos are a common nuisance and disease spreading insect. In addition to being vectors of disease, one of the main reasons we want to tackle this pest is to allow people to enjoy outdoor activities more frequently – e.g., eating outside, spending time with family, and watching outdoor sporting events. Here in P&G Ventures, we are looking for existing, in market solutions which exist globally that are specifically designed to kill or repel mosquitos. |
 | Seeking Recyclable Closure for Paper Beverage Bottles |
|
We are seeking technologies for a re-closable fiber-based closure for a paper beverage bottle that can be recycled in the paper stream. |
| | Seeking existing market solutions targeted towards crawling insects |
|
The issue of crawling insects in homes has been an ongoing issue. The popular types of crawling insects causing problems have been ants and cockroaches. The search will focus on existing market solutions targeted towards crawling insects such as ants and cockroaches (other types of crawling insects are in scope i.e., bed bugs). |
 | Paper-based temperature sensor with high sensitivity |
|
The CSIC has developed a thermo-resistive sensor comprising a semiconductor material onto a paper substrate. The use of this type of materials together with deposition technique of semiconductor element allow to design a thermo-resistive sensor with high sensitivity to abrupt temperature changes being up to an order of magnitude more sensitive than analogous sensors based on graphite. The use of paper as substrate makes this sensor cheap, easy to produce and biodegradable. The incorporation of this device in fabrics allows to monitor body temperature. Likewise, when integrated in packaging, it allows to record thermal history of goods. Industrial partners from the electronic components and sensors sectors or companies from textile and paper industry are being sought to collaborate through a patent license agreement. |
 | SOY-BASED SURFACTANTS |
|
Battelle, in partnership with the Ohio Soybean Council, has developed a soy-based alternative and is looking for a commercial partner to license the technology. The global surfactant market is set to grow at about 4.6% through 2023, when it will reach $1.09 billion.* |
| | Soy-PK: Bio-Based Alternative to Epoxy Resins |
|
The Soy-PK reactive oligomer cross-linker resin (Soy-PK) offers a practical, cost-effective drop-in replacement for epoxy resins containing bisphenol-A (BPA). Such resins are widely used in coatings, especially in metal beverage and food container coatings that present serious mutagenicity and health concerns. The new technology offers a viable option to displace fossil-based BPA-containing epoxy resins with a renewable source raw material, improving the industry’s environmental footprint. |
