What s DIC Profile DIC is one of Japan's most diversified chemical companies. DIC forms the core of the DIC Group, which includes approximately 300 subsidiaries and affiliates in Japan and more than 60 other countries around the world. The DIC Group s four business operations consist of graphic arts; polymers and related products; specialty plastics and compounds; and other, which includes building materials, pressure-sensitive adhesive materials and biochemicals. Through these operations, the Group supplies essential materials to abroad range of industrial users around the world. A leader in the global markets for printing inks, organic pigments and thermosetting resins, the DIC Group aims to further strengthen its international position while contributing to industry and society with innovative products and technologies.. 3
Extensive Global Network The DIC Group comprises 210 companies in 63 countries. (As of ctober 2009) DIC was one of the first Japanese printing ink manufacturers to establish a presence in other parts of Asia. In 1986, Sun Chemical Corp., a leading manufacturer of printing inks, joined the DIC Group. Since then, additional acquisition-including the Coates Group (the inks division of France s Totalfina S.A.) in 1999- have reinforced DIC s position as one of the world s preeminent fine chemicals companies. At present, DIC is focusing its expansion efforts on promising growth markets in Asia, notably the People s Republic of China (PRC), to strengthen core businesses, and is also establishing a presence in such emerging markets as Central and Eastern Europe, South America and the Middle East.. 4
Metal Carboxylates What is Metal-carboxylates rganic Carboxylic acid of Metal salt It has polarity part of metal-carboxyl group and nonpolarity part of the hydrocarbon group in its structure. The catalysis of the metal is applied, and it is used for various applications. The charge transfer Is the most important characteristic of Metal Carboxylates R C M C R 5
