The company's core technology is the development of catalysts for hydrogenation reactions and organic synthesis using these catalysts, as well as the synthesis of chemical products and intermediates for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
We offer a full range of catalysts, from catalysts made of powdered activated carbon loaded with precious metals such as palladium and platinum to complex catalysts used in coupling reactions. Recently, we have also developed catalysts for flow reactions that can be used in continuous reactions.
We will continue to provide our customers with high-quality specialty chemicals born from our proprietary technologies.
We have a lineup of unique and functionally rich products derived from our technologies, including aluminum organic compounds, alumina sols, polymer dispersants, and lubricants.
Alumina sol is a colloidal solution of boehmite nanoparticles dispersed in a medium. Based on the core technology of nanoparticle synthesis, we have established a crystal shape control technology and offer alumina sols in various shapes, such as columnar, plate, and fiber.
Alumina sols are characterized by high transparency and high purity. Alumina sols are used in a wide range of applications such as inorganic binders, filler agents, coating agents, and surface treatment agents for thermal, chemical, and mechanical protection and modification.
As the first manufacturer in Japan, we have been selling our products for about 70 years. Aluminum alkolates and aluminum chelate compounds are used and investigated in various fields such as reduction catalysts, industrial polymerization catalysts, curing catalysts for epoxy resins and urethane resins, substitutes for Sn catalysts, raw materials for high-purity alumina and ceramics, gelling agents, cross-linking agents, curing agents, resin modification and pigment dispersion for inks, paints, adhesives, etc. It is being considered for use in a variety of fields, such as gelators, crosslinking agents, curing agents, resin modifiers, and pigment dispersion for inks, paints, and adhesives, etc. Various functional improvements in strength, drying, water resistance, transparency, heat resistance, anticorrosion, antistatic, adhesion, and pigment dispersion can be expected.
Polymeric dispersants are used in the production of pigment dispersions in the electronics field, printing inks, paints, colorants, plastic products, etc. They prevent re-agglomeration of particles by adsorbing on the surface of ceramic particles and pigments. The effects of adding polymeric dispersants are expected to increase the solid concentration of the dispersion, improve productivity, decrease viscosity, and improve stability over time.
Lubricants reduce the viscosity of resin melts, improve mold release from metal surfaces during molding, and contribute to improved physical properties of plastic products.
