Many products that have led to the resolution of social issues have been created through the application of various technologies derived from polymer science.
Polyolefin Elastomers
TAFMER™
Used as a resin modifier that dramatically improves the properties of resins, and as a flexible and lightweight soft molding material in a wide range of applications including automotive parts, packaging, and shoes. It is also used as solar encapsulant.
Adhesive Resin／Compatibilizer
ADMER™
Adhesive resin developed by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. for the first time in the world. It also functions as a dispersing and compatibilizing agents for multiple materials. It contributes to extending shelf life in food applications and preventing corrosion in industrial applications.
High Performance Resins
TPX™
Halogen-free resin with heat resistance, releasability, transparency, and gas permeability.
It is used in a wide range of applications from daily necessities to industrial use and environmentally friendly products.
High Performance Resins
ABSORTMER™
By optimizing the molecular structure at the nano-level, it combines stress absorption and stress relaxation properties not found in conventional polyolefin materials. It contributes to the development of unique products.
