Chemicals and Materials
Nippon Steel Chemical & Material Co., Ltd. was formed by the merger of Nippon Steel & Sumikin Chemical Co., Ltd. and Nippon Steel & Sumikin Materials Co., Ltd. and through this business merger, it has obtained synergistic effects. One is the reinforcement of the core operations of coal chemicals and chemicals, and another is the fusion of the synthesis, refining, mixing and other material design/production technologies based on the aromatic chemicals of Nippon Steel & Sumikin Chemical and the thin foil, fine wire, micro particles and other material technologies of Nippon Steel & Sumikin Materials. Capitalizing on these synergistic effects, Nippon Steel Chemical & Material will establish an operation system that plays a role in the Nippon Steel group’s goal of strengthening comprehensive capabilities of basic materials.
