Innovation that drives sustainability

Many of the world’s greatest sustainability challenges are fundamentally chemistry problems. We can convert the mobility sector from internal combustion engines to electric vehicles, but this requires batteries with greater range and lower cost. This is fundamentally a chemistry challenge. We can have a zero-energy building, but this requires high performance insulation, efficient solar panels, and energy storage solutions. Each of these are fundamentally chemistry challenges.

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.
