Imbibitive Technologies is a specialty sorbent manufacturer and environmental solutions provider.
Our proprietary product, IMBIBER BEADS®, meets ASTM International Standards as a super aBsorbent polymer and is the common tie in all of our environmental cleanup and mitigation products.
IMBIBER BEADS® are spherical plastic particles that ‘IMBIBE’, drink–in or aBsorb a very broad cross section of the organic chemical spectrum.
The polymer particles are solid (about the size of a salt or sugar granule). There are no pores or voids to fill (as in a sponge).
Once contact has been made with a compatible liquid, the IMBIBER BEADS® drink the liquid into their solid structure and in so doing, swell. This can be up to 27 volumes per original IMBIBER BEADS® volume with some liquids.
The IMBIBER BEADS® will not release liquid, not through compression, gravitational pull, not even when cut in half. The liquid is held in the molecular structure – not in droplets.
Imbibitive Technologies (IMBTEC) is pleased to announce that Imbiber Beads® products are now an integral part of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation state wide spill response plan.
