We provide various kinds of commodity values based on emulsion polymerization technologies mainly using vinyl acetate-based or acrylic materials.
Based on these technologies, we have developed hybrid technologies for compounding different kinds of polymers.
We have also introduced special polymerization technologies and particle design technologies as new design technologies and applied these technologies to produce new functionalities.
We have also put the focus on processing technologies such as powdering technologies for powdering the emulsions produced and dispersion/emulsification technologies for melting and mechanically emulsifying off-the-shelf polymers.
Japan Coating Resin will satisfy the needs of more customers in these technological fields.
Hybrid technologies produce new functions by compounding two or more different kinds of resins.
For example, these technologies can be used to produce a core/shell emulsion made of a urethane resin and an acrylic resin.

Hybrid resin particles produced by mini-emulsion polymerization using special equipment can be expected to offer properties that cannot be obtained from simply blending resins. These technologies can be used to compound a functional material and a polymer.

We also design various forms of particles. New technologies widen the potential of particles.

An emulsion can be processed into powder so that it can be handled easily.
For example, an emulsion processed into powder can be stored in a low-temperature environment in which water freezes and can be dispersed in water again when it is used.
By processing functional resins, which are generally difficult to process, into emulsion, they can be used in various applications, such as coatings, relatively easily.
Mechanical emulsification technologyVarious resins can be emulsified forcibly. |
