Give the best to your processes
Arkema manufactures and markets synthesis intermediates with world-renowned purity and quality. Essential for the production of thousands of medicines and agrochemicals, these products act as building blocks (hydrazine hydrate and triazoles), reducing agents (hydrazine hydrate) and catalysts (azo-initiators). At the cutting edge of safety and technology, these products offer optimum performance:
- Top purity
- Top selectivity
- Top productivity
- Agrochemistry
Triazoles and hydrazine hydrate are essential reagents for the manufacture of agrochemicals especially when you’re looking for fungicides and herbicides functions. For instance, triazole based molecules are the only curing solution against the Asian rust in Soya crops and the Septoria Tritici expansion on cereals. - Pharmaceuticals
Several API are based on hydrazine and its derivatives chemistry. Ultra pure quality of our products is a key asset in this business. - Synthesis
Thanks to their specific properties (N-N link, cyclic structure…), one can’t get away from using our products in various chemical synthesis (dyestuffs, intermediates, etc…). Azo-initiators are also used as catalysts for free radical halogenation, sulphochlorination, addition of phosphorus, and silicone containing compounds to olefins. This technique is applied, for example, for the manufacture of solvent extraction reagents.
Our added value
We have developed products with tailor-made specifications according to customers’ requirements:
- High Purity hydrazine hydrate
- Top derivatives quality
- Safe packaging for hydrazine hydrate (IBCs, safety transfer system, dry linked systems) and triazoles (antistatic big bags…)
- ISO certifications: quality management at every level
- Quality Control
- Integrity of the product
