In order to function, electrical and electronic devices require numerous different chemical products, while others are essential for their manufacture. These include indium tin oxide, pigments, photoinitiators and monomers as well as etching, solder-resist and photo-resist chemicals and separators, electrolyte, lithium salts and many more. Touch-panels are encountered in an ever-increasing number of digital devices, including smartphones, iPads and digital cameras.

Used in a wide number of industries, coatings not only provide countless items with color and texture, but also enhance their appearance and prolong their life.

Specialty molecules known as functional monomers can provide a standard polymer with additional, enhanced performance effects and/or significantly improve processing performance when incorporated into the polymerization process.

DCPD (dicyclopentadiene) type is mainly used as an epoxy resin modifier (ERM) in epoxy chain-extending reactions, primarily for the manufacture of epoxy composites.

Bisphenol type is used in the manufacture of numerous plastics and epoxy resins. Applications for bisphenol-based plastic, which is clear and tough, include a variety of common consumer goods, such as water bottles, sports equipment, CDs, and DVDs. Epoxy resins containing bisphenols are used to line water pipes and coatings, and in the manufacture of thermal paper, such as that used in sales receipts.

Fluorene type is highly suitable as components of a conducting polymer because they can stabilize and conduct a charge. The luminescent, electronic and absorptive properties of fluorene make it attractive for devices such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic solar cells, and organic thin-film sensors.
