Over the past year, Arkema has emerged globally as a major player in the nanostructured materials. We are the world's first chemical producer to market a range of acrylic block copolymers, Nanostrength^®, and our revolutionary BlocBuilder^® technology which is able to control free radical polymerization.

Nanostrength^®

Nanostrength^® block copolymers are the result of Arkema's unique (meth)acrylates anionic and controlled radical polymerization chemistry and technology. This self-assembling nanotechnology provides benefits to many thermo-set, composite, thermoplastic and rubber applications.

BlocBuilder^® Technology

A number of polymer structures and chemistries are possible with BlocBuilder^® technology. It provides notable benefits in a broad range of applications including paints and coatings(resins and additives), impact modification, electronics, lubricant additives, personal care adhesives and drug delivery. BlocBuilder's^® compatibility with most existing polymerization reactors and processes minimize your capital investment.
