Instrumental Polymer Technologies, LLC (IP TECH) is a privately held company based in Los Angeles, California which is active in the research, development, production and sales of aliphatic polycarbonate polyols for use in polyurethane formulations. IP TECH is the first company to supply branched aliphatic polycarbonates to this market, providing a new standard in urethane performance. IP TECH is also at the forefront of bringing nanotechnology, and in particular, dendrimeric polymers to the broad markets such as coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers (CASE). It uses a proprietary natural growth process to produce dendrimeric polycarbonate polyols at low cost. Instrumental Polymer Technologies, LLC (IP TECH) grew from the need for new high performance polyols to meet tightening EPA regulations within the aviation coatings market. Standard polyester and acrylic polyols were limited in performance and fluoronated polyols were too expensive. We launched polycarbonate polyols to achieve extreme performance at a reasonable cost. We have since then broadened our product line to meet specific needs of other urethane coatings markets including marine, automotive, leather and general industrial.
