High-value-added Products

TPX™ from Mitsui Chemicals is a transparent plastic (Polymethylpentene) that is heat resistant and boasts superior releasability. It is one of the lightest polymer materials among thermoplastic plastics for commercial use, and can be used for a wide range of your purposes.

PFAS Alternatives

About PFAS regulation and solution with TPX™

About PFAS

PFASs stand for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and are defined as fluorinated substances that contain at least one fully fluorinated methyl or methylene carbon atom except any H, Cl, Br and I atom connected. It includes almost every organo-fluorine compound in the world

Mission of TPX™

Solution

We collaborate closely with our customers to address PFAS restrictions by utilizing TPX™ material, which offers several similar properties to fluoropolymers, including heat resistance, releasability, chemical resistance, and dielectric properties. Our projects are supported by our advanced development technologies refined throughout decades of experience.
