 KCC Silicone I Introduction

We are reaching out to the world

with quality and technology
We produce and distribute various silicone products including silicone
rubber, sealants for construction and industrial use, silane, silicone oil,
silicone emulsion, and silicone dispersion products.
Today’s building materials are essential blends or composites of organic and inorganic chemical products.
KCC takes pride in being a market leader in these particular chemical fields. In the past, the two divisions
within KCC operated separately, but they are now merged together to provide enhanced synergy, cost
efficiency, and service to our multitude of highly valued customers. Korea Chemical Co. Ltd., that specialized
in organic chemical products (mainly paints and resins for paints) has merged with Kumgang Chemical Co. Ltd.,
into a single legal entity entitled Kumgang Korea Chemical Co. Ltd. The company is known as KCC for short.
The technical integration of the organic and inorganic chemistry business under the same roof ensures better
products, better technical service, and more competitive prices. KCC continues to be a worldwide industrial
player in the 21st century and continues to invest in innovative R&D activities.

Introduction to KCC Silicone Business

KCC constructed the first silicone monomer production plant in Korea in 2003. KCC has made
great R&D advances for the silicone industry with researchers specialized in the field of silicone
monomer, polymer synthesis, and the development of applicable products. Thus, KCC has completed
the development in the silicone-related field successfully. KCC is ready to produce and provide silicone
products including silicone sealant for construction, industrial RTV, silane, fluids, emulsion and
dispersion, as well as rubber.
Moreover, KCC makes contributions to promote the competitive power of our
customers by supplying products corresponding to their needs and by concentrating
our energies on R&D activities.

There are several kinds of silicone rubber and among them is LSR. Liquid silicone rubber is cured automatically in liquid injection molding machines.
LSR enables the customer to increase productivity. Since it is in a liquid phase, Two Components (part A and B) are supplied at a regular ratio by dosing pumps.
it is ready to use in Liquid Injection Molding machines. Due to this powerful Part A and B are then mixed together in a mixing block and a static mixer. At this
advantage, large volumes of surge amestors, very delicate seals, and silicone time, if color paste is necessary, it is then mixed.
adhesives for plastic materials are produced readily and in a large scale. This mixed compound is measured by volume using some mechanical tools in
