Chemical Products Business

We support people's lives with reliable technology related to chemistry, including emergency signal flares that protect people's safety, ammonium perchlorate, which is a raw material for rocket propellants, functional materials and silicon wafers used in IT equipment, and contract assessment services to perform various assessment testing on everything from chemical substances to battery devices, etc.

Products

Explosives

  • Industrial explosives

    Industrial explosives are essential for civil engineering projects and quarrying limestone for cement. Our emulsion explosives Highjex and ammonium nitrate fuel oil explosives ANFO Explosive have earned a strong reputation in terms of work efficiency and safety, contributing to the establishment of social infrastructure.

Chemicals

  • Raw material for solid propellants for rockets

    We are also contributing to the development of the space industry as Japan's only manufacturer of ammonium perchlorate, which is used as a raw material for solid propellants for rockets.

  • Industrial chemicals

    Our Company's name comes from Carlit explosives, and the primary materials used in the production of these explosives are salts. We use our unique salt electrolysis technologies to manufacture and sell industrial chemicals such as sodium chlorate (NaClO3/NaClO2), which is used as a bleaching agent for paper and textile manufacturers.

  • Agrichemicals

    Dezorate, a safe and powerful herbicide that works with pinpoint accuracy, is used in non-farming areas, and is highly effective for bamboo and bamboo grass. In addition, we also handle people- and environmentally friendly products, such as treatment and preventive medicines for powdery mildew and fertilizers containing many natural ingredients.

  • Metal electrodes

    We expanded the insoluble electrode technology developed for use in our own plants and sell platinum, iridium oxide, and lead dioxide electrodes. They are used for various applications such as plating and seawater electrolysis.

Electronic materials

  • Electronic materials

    Our conductive polymer for capacitors is used in a multitude of electronic devices. Our capacitor electrolyte is also in wide use in large-scale applications such as construction machinery, along with smartphone backup power supplies and drive recorders, making them more compact and improving their performance.

  • Functional materials

    Electrical conductivity imparting agents using ionic compounds, used in protective films attached to mobile phone and other displays, eliminate static electricity caused from friction that occurs when removing the protective film. They also prevent dust from adhering to the display.

Material assessment service

  • Material assessment service

    Using the advanced explosives technologies we have built up through the years, we became Japan's first contractor to perform material hazard assessment testing for chemical substances. We have contributed to the establishment of hazard verification testing compliant with the Fire Service Act and to the verification of product safety. We also constructed a battery testing laboratory for evaluating the reliability of secondary lithium-ion batteries, including their lifespans and capacities. We meet the rising need for secondary lithium-ion batteries driven by the popularization of hybrid and electric vehicles.

Ceramic materials

  • Abrasive and polishing materials

    We manufacture and sell abrasive materials used as a raw material for grinding wheels, coated abrasives and refractory materials essential to the industries that play an integral part in our lives, including automotive, steel, and machinery. We supply stable, high-quality products such as our Sakurundum series to meet a diversifying range of industrial needs.

Silicon wafers

  • Silicon wafers

    We offer an integrated production line ranging from silicon monocrystalline growing to mirror wafers and individual processing with our advanced technological capabilities and production equipment. Silicon wafers are used as base materials for diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits that are essential to computers, mobile phones, audiovisual devices, LED lighting, and automotive electronics, contributing to the development of IT.
