OLEFISTA® is composed of an olefin-based resin to which non-halogen flame retardants have been added for optimal benefit.  The result is an olefin compound that is flame retardant, flexible, heat-resistant, and scratch-resistant.  In addition, the product lineup includes the choice of enhanced material properties for demanding applications. For the purpose of improving thermal, chemical, and mechanical properties, silane groups can be incorporated into the resin.  Post-forming, these groups can be activated with water to form cross-links which result in the improvements.  OLEFISTA® is mainly used for electrical wiring --- appliance wiring, various cords, etc.

DURABIO® is a biopolycarbonate resin derived mainly from plant-based isosorbide.  Compared with conventional polycarbonate resin (hereafter abbreviated PC resin) made from bisphenol A (hereafter abbreviated BPA), DURABIO® features high transparency, excellent optical properties, and outstanding scratch resistance.  Its puncture impact behaviour are comparable to those for PC resin.

DURABIO® is a plant-derived polymer but is not biodegradable.  It has excellent durability, making possible its deployment in a wide variety of applications such as for optical ・energy related components, a substitute for high-performance glass components, as well as for electronic equipment ・ automotive housings ・ interior and exterior decor.

The strongly acidic cation exchange resins are bead-like products which have a sulfonic acid group in the cross-linked styrene frame.  They can be used across the full pH range (0-14), and are relatively stable to temperature, even withstanding high temperatures of 100-120℃.  They are used in a wide variety of fields including water purification, water softening, wastewater treatment, purification of pharmaceuticals and food, and catalysis.

The weakly acidic cation exchange resins have the carboxylic acid group (-COOH) as the exchange group.  There are two kinds --- a methacrylic acid type and an acrylic acid type.  The acrylic acid weakly acidic cation exchange resin is used for processing water with high carbonate hardness.  The methacrylic acid type is used for purification of antibiotics and amino acids.

To DIAION™ series Product Information Page

An amino functional group is incorporated into the anion exchange resin enabling the exchange of anions like the Cl- ion and the SO4-- ion. Strongly basic anion exchange resins and weakly basic anion exchange resins can be defined according to the basic strength of the amino functional group.  
The ion exchange resin that has a quaternary ammonium group is strongly alkaline and dissociates just like NaOH and KOH.  Therefore it is called a strongly basic anion exchange resin.

To DIAION™ series Product Information Page

The weakly basic anion exchange resins use either a polystyrene or polyacrylic ester frame and a primary-ternary amino group as the functional group.  Although the anion of a salt like NaCl or Na2SO4 cannot be exchanged, the exchange of an anion of a mineral acid such as HCl and H2SO4, or the salt of a weak base like NH44Cl can be carried out.

DIAION™ AMP03 is an amphoteric ion exchange resin in which a quatenary ammonium group and a carboxy group are incorporated on a cross-linked polystyrene frame.  Because the beads  are 260µm and uniform size, elution peaks are sharp for separations of electrolyte and non-electrolyte or separations among electrolytes (sodium chloride, sodium sulfate, etc.)
