The Chemicals Business Area of Evonik Industries is a leading producer of additives for the polymer industry.

Higher tensile strength for polyimide fibers, films and foams for e.g. jet aircraft structures and space rocket bodies can be achieved by our unique range of bi-, tri- and tetrafunctional chemicals as crosslinkers and co-monomers. Increased capacity utilisation becomes possible by more reactive polymerisation initiators and/or higher filling levels by Tego defoamers. Silanes, Silicas, and Carbon Blacks do their hidden jobs in the packaging, construction, automotive or electronic industry. POLYTREND liquid color systems enables greatest color flexibility to the plastic industry.

Our back-integration in raw materials and a number of proprietary technologies, such as high-temperature gas-phase reactions, lead to the cost-effective generation of a multitude of functionalities.
