Kaneka liquid polymers are widely recognized as the premium choice of base resins for producing sealants, adhesives, and coatings. Their unique properties enable KANEKA MS POLYMER™, KANEKA SILYL™, and KANEKA XMAP™ based products to deliver outstanding performance for a wide variety of markets, including construction, industrial, transportation, flooring, waterproofing, DIY, and specialty markets. Kaneka’s continuous pursuit of innovation is reflected in our broad product portfolio covering various applications.

Functional and engineering plastics play an important role in our everyday lives and inspire innovations that make life better, healthier, and safer. They are in windows, doors, roofs, walls, and flooring that make our homes and buildings safe and energy-efficient. Plastics in packaging help keep medicines and food safe and fresh. They are in cars, credit cards, smartphones, televisions, computers, and other electronic equipment that make modern life possible.

Kaneka’s Vinyls and Chlor-Alkali Solutions Vehicle is home to a wide range of products. Its integrated production system includes monomers, polymers, and vinyl chloride globally supplied from production plants in Japan, Malaysia, and the USA.

EPERAN™-PP and EPERAN™ are Kaneka’s expanded polypropylene and polyethylene foam beads or particles. These particles are used to be molded into various shapes and products whose superior mechanical and outstanding cushioning and energy absorption properties make them ideal materials for the automotive industry, engineering products, returnable containers, housings for HVAC, cushioning and protective packaging, and many more.

Kaneka has positioned four business domains to implement its research and business development strategy: Materials, Quality of Life, Health Care, and Nutrition. Within these domains, we further innovate our technologies, expand business models, and create new ones. We set the purpose of our research and business development activities from the perspective of markets and customers.

The material can be processed with conventional plastic industry equipment, such as injection molding and extrusion machinery. The typical end applications are those for which organic recyclability (compostable and anaerobic digestibility) is the intended end-of-life or for which it is challenging to avoid fragments ending up in the open environment. It is suitable for (food) packaging, organic waste management, agricultural, horticultural, and marine-related applications.

The sustainable innovation spirit of this material is indisputable. No matter where this material ends up, it will degrade into water, CO2, and biomass by the microorganisms available in nature. It allows producing innovative packaging, entirely in line with the circular economy, integrating the added value of compostability as end-of-life, and opens up new perspectives in waste management systems.

The cyclic lipopeptide structure, consisting of seven amino acids, contributes to unique, distinguishing properties. KANEKA Surfactin can create D-phase, emulsion, a bi-continuous phase that incorporates both oil and water, using a very low dosage (3 ppm). The D-phase KANEKA Surfactin can be used to formulate cleansing oil gel and small particle emulsion, and many other skincare and cosmetics products.
