the world's largest single line for EVOH,
with
a
production
capacity of 15,000 tons per year. In concert
with this move, a Customer Service Center was established in Dusseldorf,

The Central Research Laboratory
is the core of Nippon Gohsei's research and development department
and works toward the development of new products. In 1927, the
Central Research Laboratory was founded and became the first in
Japan to establish a technique
for the industrialization of acetic acid in 1928. Since that time,
it has carried on the tradition of Nippon Gohsei as a technical
leader,
through the development of products such as Soarnol®,
polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) resin, "Gohsenol®", and
other distinctive products based on organic synthesis techniques.
At the physical analysis center located within the Central Research
Laboratory, the physical (and other) properties
of substances are studied as part of an effort to grow
the company's knowledge base
and lead
to future developments. The Central Research Laboratory will continue
to contribute to society by providing products with high added
value. |
