TAML® Catalysts: Inspired By Nature

TAML® catalysts, pioneered at Carnegie Mellon University's Institute for Green science mimick peroxidase enzymes, and are at the core of every Sudoc solution. Added to products, formulations, and oxidation-based systems, our chemistry enhances performance and helps lower system costs.

How TAML® Catalysts Work

Sudoc's suite of TAML® catalysts all feature a macrocyclic ligand that stabilizes a metal ion, accelerating oxidation while preventing deactivation.

These molecules pair with an oxidant, capture an oxygen atom, and rapidly deliver it to the target—mimicking peroxidase enzymes in the body. Once their job is done, TAML catalysts break down into natural elements, no longer remaining active in the environment. 

This process significantly reduces the need for excess chemical oxidants, forming the core of our Dot Catalyst technology.
