Applications
Tall oil pitch is a renewable byproduct derived from the processing of pine wood during the production of pulp and paper. It is increasingly used as primary component in biobinders — sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based bitumen for asphalt applications. Tall oil pitch is a valuable resource in producing biobinders because it reduces the binder's carbon footprint.
