This review summarizes the successful development and commercialization of a superabsorbent polymer (SAP) using iodine transfer polymerization (ITP). We found that the overall absorption performance of the SAP was improved by applying ITP and that this improvement was related to the homogenization of the polymer network. This innovation enables the quick response to diversified customer needs in the diaper industry. We believe that this achievement will contribute to improving the quality of life of people around the world.
Tommykaira ZZ with Teijin’s PC pillar-less front window. The world’s first PC pillar-less front window was developed by using Teijin’s polymer material engineering, injection press and hard coating technologies. These technologies can overcome issues for plastic glazing, such as scale up and long-term reliability and provide low optical distortion window and much higher scratch and weather resistance compared to plastic glazing in the market. These technologies can also contribute to driver’s safety and provide more enjoyable sightseeing. Teijin aims to be a total solution provider for automobile manufacturers.
