We’re launching our IMPACTIVE webinar series to discuss mechanochemistry, green pharmaceuticals, and green chemistry. Save the date: our first session will take place on 28 May at 12:00 pm (noon) CEST, with a presentation by Evelina Colacino, our project coordinator.
Welcome to the second edition of our helpful glossary, which explains key terms and concepts in the fascinating world of mechanochemistry. Enjoy!
We are launching a helpful glossary that explains key terms and concepts in the fascinating world of mechanochemistry. This is the first of our four editions. Enjoy!
Our researchers from Radboud University are at the core of IMPACTIVE. This team works on exploring new reactions to synthesise pharmacologically active compounds at a lab scale while avoiding the use of solvents.
We’re turning two years old, and we’re celebrating by publishing our latest Annual Report, which analyses our recent developments.
On 13 and 14 June, IMPACTIVE will attend the EuroScience Open Forum 2024, held in Poland, with an exciting session about green pharma.
The IMPACTIVE team has looked into the manufacturing of imatinib: an anticancer drug on the Essential Medicines’ list of the Worlds’ Health Organisation. Thanks to mechanochemistry, we discovered a synthetic route to do it in a way that is safer, greener and more efficient than the commercial method used nowadays.
Mechanochemistry is a groundbreaking field, revolutionizing chemistry through force-triggered reactions, eco-friendly practices, and efficient processes. It’s a pioneer technology with applications across multiple fields: biomass transformation, energy storage, agrochemicals, and much more. With its versatility and sustainability, it’s reshaping a myriad of industries towards a greener, more innovative future. Keep reading to unveil different use-cases.
IMPACTIVE is a very ambitious project, with members of the greatest background diversity. Altogether, we want to get rid of the solvents in the current pharmaceutical processes and substitute them with mechanochemistry, a greener, more sustainable approach.
Have you ever thought about the environmental impact of the pills we take? We have, and we want to do something about it. From the different techniques we use, to the environmental analyses we perform, this article unravels all you need to know about IMPACTIVE.
