Primary Markets

3D Printing Solutions by Arkema brings a step change in the possibilities of additive manufacturing including highly engineered fine powders for rapid prototyping and rapid manufacturing. Parts made from Rilsan® Invent powders exhibit excellent mechanical properties compared to other polyamides as well as outstanding impact resistance, higher ductility, and elasticity.

Hot melt adhesives for apparel and automotive headliners.

From heavy truck airbrake tubing to low-permeation multi-layer fuel lines and dimensionally stable fittings, Arkema offers a wide range of polymer solutions to make vehicles lighter, more fuel efficient, and longer lasting.
Metal and rubber replacement is a common theme.

Extreme solutions for a vast array of industrial applications like Biopharmaceutical Industry, Breathable Films, Chemical Processing Industry (CPI), Conveyor Belt Resins, Filaments and Fibers, Food and Beverage, Polymer Processing Aids, Nylon Film Modification, Permanent Antistatic Additives, Rotomolding Resins, Industrial Tubing & Hose

The Orgasol® and Rilsan® D products are high performance, multi-functional coating additives based on polyamide chemistry.  Think of these materials as problem solvers for your waterborne, solventborne and UV coating formulations.  The products provide benefits both in terms of coating performance and processability of the coating.

For over 50 years, coatings based on Kynar 500® PVDF resin have been protecting some of the world's most iconic buildings. Waterborne coatings based on Kynar Aquatec® emulsions offer equivalent weatherability as Kynar 500® PVDF but without the need for baking.

Pebax® resins for light weight and high energy return for the sports market. Medical grades for catheters, tubes and gowns. Kynar® PVDF resin for long-term weathering, and resistance to chemicals and wear & tear. Flexible biobased solutions for BPA free optics/eyewear.

Permanent Antistatic Additives, Hot Melt Adhesives, Wire and Cable Materials, and Wearable Device Components.

Extreme materials for subsea umbilicals, risers and flow lines. We are the unique manufacturer of Kynar® fluoropolymers, Rilsan® polyamide 11, and Kepstan® PEKK solutions for these extremely demanding applications. We also offer a wide array of solutions for fuel storage, onshore oil & gas production, and natural gas distribution.

Durable powder coatings based on our Rilsan® biobased polymer range.

Kynar® PVDF resins provide high electrochemical, thermal and chemical stability for the manufacture of Lithium ion battery binders and separator coatings.
Our patented Kynar® film is a highly engineered multilayer construction - a critical component of KPK® solar panel backsheet laminates for outstanding exterior durability - particularly in harsh environments.

Kynar® resins offer extreme durability to high throughput microfiltration and ultrafiltration membranes and pipes & fittings used for the production and transportation of high purity potable water.
