materials and additives for fibers, polymers and coating compounds which are indispensable to our daily lives and industries.<br>Our xylene separation technology using the superacid catalyst is unique technology, and it enables the efficient separation of mixed xylenes obtained from the petroleum refining into m-xylene, p-xylene, o-xylene, and ethylbenzene. Using xylene isomers produced efficiently by applying these technologies, we manufacture derivative products together with MGC affiliates. From m-xylene, we manufacture meta-xylenediamine, the raw material of paints, adhesives, etc, high-purity isophthalic acid, demand for which is growing as a secondary raw material for PET resins, as well as the derivatives produced with our unique technology. One example of the derivatives is MX Nylon, which boasts features such as gas barrier properties, chemical resistance, and high rigidity. It is widely accepted in various countries around the world as a material for food packaging and injection molding.<br>In addition, aromatic aldehydes Aromatic aldehydes are used as raw materials for perfumes, plastic additives, pigments, pharmaceutials, agrochemicals, and other specialty chemicals.<br>The main use of formalin is phenolic resin adhesive used in the production of plywood. Plywood is widely used in the floors, walls, and furniture of houses and buildings, and is a basic material that is closely related to our daily life. As the largest domestic supplier, we support our daily lives invisibly.<br>Polyols are used in solvent-free products such as powder coating polyester resins and waterborne polyester resins. Polyols contribute to the realization of an environmentally friendly society.</p> </div> <div> <figure><img src="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/img/bc-div2_p01.jpg" alt="Photo: the image 1 of factory that belongs to High-performance products division" width="221"></figure> <figure class="mT20"><img src="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/img/bc-div2_p02.jpg" alt="Photo: the image 2 of factory that belongs to High-performance products division" width="221"></figure> </div> </div> <p class="link-btn-normal mT60"><a href="/eng/products/#products-tab03" class="link-icon"><span>Products of High-performance Products Division</span></a></p> </section> <section> <div class="box-bdrA"> <h2 class="ttl">Contact</h2> <p class="spaceMT">High-performance Products Division<br>TEL:+81-3-3283-4800 FAX:+81-3-3214-0938</p> </div> </section> </div> <!-- localMenu --> <!-- localMenu --> <!-- localMenu --> <aside id="localMenu"> <nav> <dl> <dt class="lm-categoryTtl sp-boxBreak"><a href="/eng/products/">Products</a></dt> <dd> <ul class="lm-list sp-boxBreak"> <li class="lm-noCurrent"><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/bc-div1.html" class="arw">Green Energy & Chemicals Business Sector</a> <ul> <li><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/bc-div1.html">C1 Chemicals Division</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/bc-div2.html">High-performance Products Division</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/bc-div5.html" class="arw">Energy Resources & Environmental Business Division</a> <ul> <li><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/what.html">What is natural gas?</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/drilling.html">Development of Higashi-Niigata Oil and Gas Field</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/geothermal.html">Hachimantai Geothermal Development</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/gas-field.html">Development of Iwafune-oki Oil and Gas Field</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/bc-div6.html">Life Science Division</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/basic-chemicals/capacity.html">Production Capacities for Main Products</a></li> </ul> </li> <li class="lm-noCurrent"><a href="/eng/products/specialty-chemicals/sc-div1.html" class="arw">Specialty Chemicals Business Sector</a> <ul> <li><a href="/eng/products/specialty-chemicals/sc-div1.html">Inorganic Chemicals Division</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/specialty-chemicals/sc-div2.html">Engineering Plastics Division</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/specialty-chemicals/sc-div3.html">Optical Materials Division</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/specialty-chemicals/sc-div4.html">Electronics Materials Division</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/specialty-chemicals/sc-div5.html">Oxygen Absorbers Division</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/specialty-chemicals/capacity.html">Production Capacities for Main Products</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> <dl id="lm-listProducts" class="lm-listCategory"> <dt>Product Search</dt> <dd> <ul> <li><a href="/eng/products/#products-tab01">Search by product category</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/#products-tab02">Search by product application</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/#products-tab03">Search by Business</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/products/#products-tab04">Search Alphabetically</a></li> <!-- <li><a href="/eng/products/#products-tab05">Search by CAS Number</a></li>--> <li class="keyword"> <div class="form-setSuggest"> <form action="/eng/products/#products-search-box" method="get"><span class="text">Keyword search</span><span class="form"><input type="search" name="search" placeholder="product name, keyword" class="text" id="kwsearch"><button type="submit" class="mf_finder_searchBox_submit"><span></span></button></span></form> <!-- 補完候補表示エリア --> <div id="suggest" style="display:none;"></div> </div> </li> </ul> </dd> </dl> </dd> </dl> </nav> </aside> <!-- //localMenu --> <!-- //localMenu --></div> <!-- //contents --> </main> <footer id="footer"> <div id="footerArea"> <!-- contentsInner --> <div class="contentsInner ftrInner"> <div id="ftrMenu-block" class="col-2 col-clm1-2"> <div id="ftr-logo"> <a href="/eng/"><img src="/eng/shared/img/ftr-logo.svg" alt="MGC Group logo"></a> <ul class="ftr-sns"> <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRVaVQrnl8KbJD1hafPJ2ag" target="_blank"><img src="/eng/shared/img/youtube_icon.png" alt="youtube logo"></a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="ftrSubMenu"> <ul> <li><a href="/eng/sitemap.html">Sitemap</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/privacy/">Privacy Policy</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/sns_policy.html">MGC’s Social Media Policy</a></li> </ul> <ul> <li><a href="/eng/site.html">Terms of Use</a></li> <li><a href="/eng/accessibility.html">Web Accessibility Policy</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> <!-- ftr-copyright --> <div id="ftr-copyright"><div class="contentsInner"><p>Copyright © MITSUBISHI GAS CHEMICAL COMPANY, INC.
