Examples of Core Technologies, Products and Development
Technologies of Dainichiseika
Dainichiseika Group's technology began with the synthesis of high-quality, highly functional pigments, evolved to the stable dispersion of pigments in various materials to improve their coloring and functionality, and then to the acquisition of the technology to synthesize the synthetic resins themselves that form the base of such dispersions. Our technological strength lies in its ability to create colorants and functional materials that are unique to our group and that carefully meet the needs of our customers through the interplay of these three technologies as a comprehensive capability.
Our Three Core Technologies
Pigment Synthesis and Surface Treatment Technology
Pigment synthesis is a technical field that makes comprehensive use of knowledge of physical chemistry and interfacial chemistry, with centering in coloration theory of chemical substances and chemical bonds. In addition to improving dispersibility and coloration from the perspective of coloring, we also have the technology to chemically treat pigment surfaces to add special functions, like pigments for color filters in LCD panels.
Formulation and Dispersion Processing Technology
Dispersing pigments that are insoluble in water or oil evenly and stably in the target material requires a great deal of know-how. Dainichiseika Group has a wide range of dispersion processing technologies for all types of materials. We apply this Dispersion Processing Technology not just to coloring but also to imparting functions such as electrical conductivity, flame retardance and strength to provide materials with added functionality.
Polymer Synthesis Technology
We have extensive knowledge of raw materials such as urethane resins, imide resins, acrylic resins, and natural product-derived polymers, as well as resin design and resin synthesis technologies to match target performance. Our strength lies in our ability to provide high value-added products that match the needs of our customers using this technology and being able to provide integrated production to the final product.
