CHEMICALS AND PETROCHEMICALS
 
Product Type Product Name Description / Application
 Hydrocarbon - Soluble Metals Organics
 
  
   Cobalt  Cobalt Organics function as selective oxidation catalysts as well as catalysts for the production of elastomeric rubbers and butadiene / isoprene rubbers.
 Nickel  Nickel Organics function as catalysts for the production of elastomeric rubbers and butadiene / isoprene rubbers.
 Neodymium  Neodymium Organics function as catalysts for the production of butadiene / isoprene rubbers with high cis / trans ratios.
 Tin  In addition to use as flexible and elastomeric polyurethane catalysts, Tin organics are used as alcoholysis / transesterification catalysts in alkyd resin manufacture.
 Lithium  Lithium Organics are used extensively as alcoholysis / transesterification catalysts in alkyd resin manufacture.
 Calcium  Calcium Organics can also be used as alcoholysis catalysts in alkyd resin manufacture. They also find use in polymerization reactions such as the conversion of propylene oxide to polypropylene glycols.
 Potassium  In addition to use as rigid foam polyurethane catalysts, Potassium Organics are used in the manufacture of carbon blacks.
