Bio-Based

3-Hydroxypropionic Acid

Bio-Based 3HP. Finally.

We make high-purity biobased 3-hydroxpropionic acid.

Made in a proprietary fermentation process using corn ethanol and pure carbon dioxide as ingredients.

Manufactured in the USA and only available here.

Applications

3-HP is a platform chemical that can be processed into a number of high value-added products, notably acrylic acid, 1,3-propanediol (PDO), methyl acrylate, and acrylamide. Further applications include lubricants, antistatic agents, surgical sutures, cosmetics, cleaning, and more.

Process

We use renewable feedstocks to create a green, sustainable product through a proprietary process. 3HP is fermented from carbon dioxide and ethanol. We then purify the 3HP to higher purity than is available elsewhere. Say goodbye to contamination from 3,3'-oxydipropionic acid.
