Kanto Denka Kogyo Co., Ltd.

Kanto Denka Kogyo Co., Ltd., founded in Tokyo, Japan, in 1938, is an international manufacturer and supplier of a diverse range of chemical products, segmented into two main divisions: Fundamental Chemicals and Fine Chemicals. The Fundamental Chemicals division produces inorganic compounds like caustic soda, hydrochloric acid, sodium hypochlorite, and aluminum chloride, which are essential for pulp and paper production, soap and detergent manufacturing, various chemical syntheses, aluminum electrolytic capacitors, and as intermediates for pharmaceuticals and agricultural products. These chemicals also play key roles in water treatment, metal surface preparation, as food additives, sterilizers, bleaching agents, oxidizers, and catalysts for reactions such as Friedel-Crafts. This division also provides organic compounds, including trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene, vinylidene chloride, and cyclohexanol. These are utilized in cleaning metal parts, the synthesis of hydrofluorocarbons, the creation of pharmaceutical and agricultural intermediates, the production of fire-resistant fibers and resins for food packaging, as organic solvents, and in processes like oil refining catalyst regeneration and dry cleaning. The Fine Chemicals division specializes in advanced chemical products. Its ferrochemicals, such as reprographics carriers and magnetite, are crucial for printers, reprographic systems, and environmentally friendly carrier solutions. Additionally, this division manufactures an extensive array of fluorochemicals, encompassing compounds like sulfur hexafluoride, carbon tetrafluoride, trifluoromethane, hexafluoroethane, nitrogen trifluoride, octafluoropropane, tungsten hexafluoride, silicon tetrafluoride, chlorine trifluoride, octafluorocyclobutane, hexafluoro-1,3-butadiene, iodine pentafluoride, and lithium hexafluorophosphate. These high-performance substances are vital for industries involved in semiconductors, liquid crystals and their displays, modern rechargeable batteries, optical fibers, and high-capacity transformers. Kanto Denka Kogyo further supplies lithium tetrafluoroborate and hexafluorophosphate, which are critical components for electrolytes and additives in lithium-ion rechargeable batteries.
