Companies all over the world depend on our organic peroxides, metal alkyls and polymerization catalysts. Why? Because they’re an important ingredient in everything from plastic bags and shoe soles to automotive parts and mobile phones.
Polymer chemicals are vital in modern manufacturing. In fact, if an item includes thermoplastic resin or elastomers (and that means everything from polyethylene, polypropylene and acrylic to polystyrene and PVC), the chances are it includes one of our products.
As well as ingredients for plastics, our Polymer Chemicals business makes high-purity metalorganics. These are used in LEDs and the lasers found inside DVD players. So next time you watch a DVD, you’ll know a little bit of AkzoNobel is making it happen.
