Strategic Partnerships Polnox's patented DT-mPM and McIn technologies, combined with industry awards, position it as an attractive partner or supplier for large chemical players to license, co-develop, or toll-manufacture high-performance antioxidants and corrosion inhibitors for lubricants, biolubricants, and plastics. Target big manufacturers like Huntsman, Solvay, BASF, and Clariant, and prepare a joint value proposition and pilot proposals for R&D and procurement teams.

Funding Credibility With NSF and DOE SBIR awards and recognition from the Wall Street Journal, Polnox brings credible backing for government-funded and sustainability-focused opportunities. Sales opportunities exist in government procurement, co-development grants, and customer programs seeking innovation—emphasize awards and successful SBIR projects in outreach and proposal materials.

Bio-based Growth Polnox targets bio-based applications in biolubricants and bioplastics, a fast-growing sustainability segment recognized by BioFuel Digest. This creates demand among manufacturers of bio-derived lubricants, renewable plastics, and green packaging seeking advanced additives; offer co-development of bio-based formulations and sustainability-compliant supply options.

US Market Expansion As a small US-based additive developer with 2-10 employees and revenues in the low-to-mid seven figures, Polnox can scale via regional distributors, contract manufacturing partnerships, and strategic alliances in the Northeast and beyond. Build a regional sales program, recruit flexible reps or partners, and establish distribution with clear MOQs and technical support.

Prototype Capabilities Polnox’s prototype-focused tech stack and emphasis on additives for lubricants and plastics enables rapid formulation prototyping, testing, and pilot-scale runs. Use this to win early customers through flexible pilot programs, quantified performance metrics, and a clear path from pilot to full-scale contract.
