C8 derivatives Polyolefin Crosslinker and Building Blocks for Pharma, Agro & Fragrance

Kuraray can provide unique C8 chemicals on an industrial scale, featuring long hydrocarbon chains with reactive groups at both ends, which impart hydrophobicity, hydrolytic stability, and improve mechanical properties.
These materials can also be used as building blocks for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and fragrances chemicals.
