The TERPLUS adhesive series contributes to the construction of a uniform network through advanced molecular weight control in the high molecular weight range, and can be applied to various needs such as low contamination, heat resistance, stress relaxation, and elastic modulus control.

TERPLUS, polymerized by the TERP method, a type of living radical polymerization, has a block polymer structure that enables control of the arrangement of components acting on pigment adsorption and dispersant affinity, resulting in strong adsorption on the pigment surface and steric stability through dispersant affinity. As a result, both excellent dispersibility and dispersion stability can be achieved.

We develop and sell special organic chemicals for various rubber compounds by utilizing our organic synthesis technologies, including hydrazine derivatives. In particular, we sell special organic chemicals that can improve the fuel efficiency and durability of automobile tires. Tires are important components that contribute to vehicle safety, environmental friendliness, and comfort. The performance of these tires is largely dependent on the properties of the rubber materials used. The world's first original compounds developed by Otsuka Chemical are used in rubber materials for high-performance tires. These compounds are present in trace amounts in rubber materials, so they are by no means conspicuous, but they make a significant contribution to today's mobility society. In particular, the chemical technology used in fuel-efficient tires, which improves the fuel efficiency of cars, contributes to the reduction of environmental impact, which also leads to the reduction of global carbon dioxide emissions.
