CMF – chloromethylfurfural
5-chloromethyl furfural is a flexible raw material for many chemistries, including para-xylene, purified terephthalic acid (PTA), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), as well as numerous commodity and specialty chemicals through its derivatives, including furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA). At commercial scale, Origin’s process produces CMF with a highly carbon negative cradle-to-gate footprint.
Chloromethylfurfural produced by Origin's biomass-to-chemicals platform enables many novel pathways and products.
