vivtek™ mPCM
Bio-based core. Same capsule durability.
vivtek™ pairs our high-stability capsule chemistry with a bio-based core produced from agricultural feedstocks rather than petroleum — a drop-in sustainable option for formulators.
Formulating with vivtek™.
vivtek™ uses the same melamine-based capsule chemistry as nextek™, so handling, dispersion behavior, and process tolerance are familiar — only the core changes. That makes it a straightforward substitution when a program needs bio-based content without a reformulation cycle.
Supplied as a ~40% solids slurry or a ~70% solids cake, with the highest heat capacity in its class and low formaldehyde content.
Sustainability advantage.
- Bio-based core from agricultural sources, not petroleum
- Highest heat capacity in class
- Good cool-to-the-touch performance
- High thermal stability through manufacturing processes
- Readily dispersible; low formaldehyde content
