On October 27, 2025, the finals of the 14th China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition (Modern Petrochemical Special Session) concluded in Yueyang, Hunan Province. After fierce competition, Dr. Bo Liang, founder of Adesso Advanced Materials, stood out from 637 excellent projects nationwide with his self-developed "degradable curing agent" project and won the Second Prize of the finals.
This year's competition focused on frontier technologies and innovative applications across multiple fields, with extremely high requirements on technical content, market potential and environmental attributes. Adesso's degradable curing agent project received high praise from the judges for its outstanding technical innovation, environmental value and industrialization potential. Using original molecular design technology, the material can be fully degraded and recycled at the end of its service life, effectively solving the industry pain point that traditional composites are hard to degrade and pollute the environment, and providing a practical technical path for the green, low-carbon transformation of the new materials sector.
The award marks authoritative recognition of Adesso's technical innovation strength and commercial prospects. The project won unanimous praise from experts and judges on site, drew serious attention from the local government and broad interest from well-known investment institutions. The competition platform greatly enhanced Adesso's brand influence and created valuable opportunities to connect with quality resources and financing channels, laying a solid foundation for subsequent industrialization.
Dr. Bo Liang said after the award: "Thank you to the organizing committee and the judges for the recognition. This award is a great encouragement for our team's persistence in original technology R&D. We will take this opportunity to accelerate the industrialization of the degradable curing agent technology, respond to the expectations of industry and capital markets, and contribute to the green transformation of China's new materials industry."
About the China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition: guided jointly by the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Finance and the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, it is China's highest-level and largest innovation and entrepreneurship event. The Modern Petrochemical Special Session, themed "Green Petrochemicals, Smart Future", aims to discover and cultivate key core technologies and innovative enterprises, and to build a platform connecting innovation resources, promoting the transformation of scientific achievements and industrial upgrading.
About Adesso Advanced Materials: through independent R&D, Adesso developed the world-first Cleavamine degradable curing agent system and Recycloset degradable/recyclable thermoset epoxy resin system, solving at the source the global problem that thermoset resin composites cannot be recycled. The company has an R&D office in Cranbury, near Princeton, New Jersey, USA; in October 2022 it established Changsha Adesso Advanced Materials Co., Ltd., focusing on the industrialization of degradable curing agents for PCB and wind turbine blade applications; and in Wuhu, Anhui it built the formulation resin production base Wuhu Tiandao Green New Materials Co., Ltd. Its degradable curing agents, recyclable resin composites and composite recycling solutions hold global intellectual property rights. Website: www.adessomaterials.com
