RockyTech is a Boulder, Colorado-based material innovation startup that develops sustainable polymer and composite solutions. The company utilizes its proprietary Waste-eliminating Covalent Adaptable Networks (WeCAN) platform, which employs reversible chemistry to create high-performance materials designed for circularity. Its technology portfolio includes patented compatibilizer additives, such as RevLink, which improve the mechanical quality of recycled polyolefin blends like PE and PP. Additionally, RockyTech works on recyclable thermosets, cyanate ester materials like RevCure, and custom cyclic carbonate monomers to facilitate the development of novel, sustainable materials for industries including clean energy, medical devices, and additive manufacturing.
These advancements are critical for customers and partners aiming to reduce hazardous waste, decrease manufacturing emissions, and improve the sustainability of their supply chains. By enabling thermal reprocessability and self-healing properties in materials that were previously difficult to recycle, such as Perfluorosulfonic acid proton exchange membranes (PFSA-PEMs), RockyTech helps bridge the gap between industrial performance and environmental stewardship. The company supports its partners through product offerings, R&D collaboration, and specialized consulting and contract services, while actively conducting testing to validate its materials for production-ready applications.
