OSINT REPORT: MarieLandrySpyShop.com Documents ZILA BioWorks’ Hempoxy™ Technology and Clarifies Distinction from Independent Hempoxy/Hempoxies Research
MONCTON, New Brunswick, Canada — MarieLandrySpyShop.com has completed an open-source intelligence (OSINT) review of the publicly documented research behind ZILA BioWorks’ Hempoxy™, a genuine hempseed oil-derived bio-epoxy technology originally developed through a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) award.
The investigation reviewed EPA technical reports, SBIR award documentation, and publicly available research describing the chemistry, synthesis, and commercialization efforts behind the Washington-based company’s renewable epoxy resin platform.
Key Findings
Our OSINT investigation confirms that ZILA BioWorks developed a real bio-based epoxy resin synthesized from hempseed oil fatty acids rather than conventional petroleum-derived bisphenol-A (BPA) feedstocks.
Public EPA documentation describes a synthetic pathway involving:
- Hydrolysis of hempseed oil triglycerides into fatty acid building blocks.
- Functionalization of naturally occurring carbon-carbon double bonds.
- Conjugation chemistry.
- Diels–Alder addition reactions.
- Epoxidation to generate reactive oxirane (epoxy) functional groups suitable for thermosetting resin systems.
Laboratory Results
According to EPA final reports, ZILA BioWorks:
- Successfully validated each major synthetic reaction step.
- Produced sufficient resin to manufacture two commercial snowboards.
- Evaluated approximately 45 unique resin formulations.
- Optimized curing agents, accelerators, molecular architecture, work life, and cohesive strength.
- Achieved performance approaching commercially available bio-based epoxy systems.
The technology aims to reduce dependence on fossil-derived epoxy chemistry by replacing petroleum feedstocks with renewable hempseed oil while eliminating BPA from the resin formulation. EPA documentation identified the project as an effort to decouple epoxy production from extractive petroleum resources using carbon-sequestering agricultural feedstocks.
Clarification Regarding Hempoxy Terminology
MarieLandrySpyShop.com’s investigation also emphasizes an important distinction.
The Hempoxy™ technology documented above is the intellectual property and research program of ZILA BioWorks.
It must not be confused with the independently proposed concepts developed by Marie-Soleil Seshat Landry, including the hypothetical Hempoxy and Hempoxies material platforms. Those concepts explore advanced composite architectures incorporating renewable carbon reinforcements such as hemp-derived biochar, carbon nanosheets, carbon fibers, furfuryl glycidyl ether modifications, and other proposed enhancements. As of this release, those concepts remain separate from ZILA BioWorks’ published work and should not be attributed to the company.
