Abstract

Hempoxies 56 is a theoretical bio-based vitrimer epoxy research hypothesis at Technology Readiness Level 1-2, designed by Marie-Soleil Seshat Landry as an open-source framework that utilizes a five-component system—incorporating Epoxidized Hempseed Oil, Furfuryl Glycidyl Ether, Citric Acid, Zinc Acetate, and an Anhydrous Ethanol processing aid—to enable dynamic transesterification while addressing previous catalyst dispersion limitations. Keywords: Hempoxies 56, Bio-based vitrimers, Epoxidized Hempseed Oil, Dynamic transesterification, Landry Industries, Open Science.
