Innovation that drives sustainability

Many of the world’s greatest sustainability challenges are fundamentally chemistry problems.

Our strength in research and development is a major reason why we have been an industry leader for more than 135 years in products such as reinforcing and specialty carbons, battery materials, aerogel, fumed metal oxides, inkjet colorants, masterbatches and conductive compounds.
