Showa Denko's SHOCELL graphite anodes — needle coke baked and graphitized at 3000°C — store lithium in premium EV batteries. Our specialty gases (WF6, SiH4) feed semiconductor CVD processes.

Stepan's surfactant chemistry — sulfonation of alcohols and alkylbenzenes with SO3 — produces the detergents in your shampoo and dish soap. Our Quikrete concrete admixture modifies cement hydration kinetics.

Zeon's ZEONEX cyclo-olefin polymer (COP) — produced by ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of norbornene — has the optical clarity of glass and the chemical resistance of plastic. Lenses, vials, and display films.
