| 1970年 |
Founded in 1970, Kaneka Belgium N.V. was the first overseas subsidiary of the chemical company Kaneka Corporation, headquartered in Osaka, Japan. |
| 1978年 |
In 1978, the first Kaneka MS Polymer™ grades were launched for application in low and high elastic modulus sealants. |
| 1986年 |
In 1986, the blending of Kaneka MS Polymer™ with random silylated polyacrylates or epoxies was introduced. The latter opened up new markets, as the acryl-modified pre-polymers showed enhanced UV-stability, weather resistance, and improved adhesive properties, while the epoxy blends combined the elasticity of STPE with the typical high strength and water resistance of epoxies. |
| 1997年 |
In 1997, silane terminated polymers with an alternative backbone, polyisobutylene, were developed and launched onto the market. |
| 2003年 |
In 2003, silane terminated polymers with an alternative backbone, polyacrylate, were developed and launched onto the market. |
| 2004年 |
In 2004, the more reactive trimethoxysilyl-(TMS) Kaneka MS Polymer™ technology was introduced, enabling the development of faster curing products. |
| 2009年 |
In 2009, the blending of these Kaneka MS Polymer™ and random silylated polyacrylates was the logical sequel for this faster curing technology. |
| 2012年 |
In 2012, based on many years of experience and Kaneka’s pursuit of innovation, the high-strength Kaneka MS Polymer™ technology was launched. |
| 2019年 |
In early 2019, Kaneka Belgium's MS Polymer™ production capacity was extended by fifty percent by installing a third state-of-the-art production line. |
