Plastics & Rubber

Kao's unique technologies contributing to a safe and sustainable society

Kao offers a wide range of products used in the manufacture of plastics and rubber, from chemicals for the emulsion polymerization of plastics and rubber to various resin additives such as plasticizers, lubricants, and antistatic agents required for processing.

Additives for emulsion polymerization

We offer a lineup of anionic surfactants, non-ionic surfactants, and reactive surfactants with radical groups to meet your needs and requirements.

Application examples

Anionic surfactants

  • EMAL series, LATEMUL series

    Alkyl sulfates

    Polyoxyethylene alkyl ether sulfates

  • NEOPELEX series

    Alkylbenzene sulfonic acids and other sodium salts

  • PELEX series

    Diphenyl sulfonates and other sulfonates

  • LATEMUL PD series

    Reactive surfactants

  • SOAP series, FR series

    Fatty acid salts

  • DEMOL series

    Naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensates

Nonionic surfactants

  • EMULGEN series

    Polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers

    Polyoxyalkylene derivatives

Lubricants

Prevents various problems caused by friction during the molding process, delivering a molded product with a smooth surface, little coloring and heat degradation.
The reduction in friction due to the lubricant reduces the amount of stabilizer added and increases the MFR(melt flow rate) to improve productivity and contribute to saving energy.
