Nouryon (Formerly Akzo Nobel)

We are a global specialty chemicals leader. Markets worldwide rely on our essential chemistry in the manufacture of everyday products such as paper, plastics, building materials, food, pharmaceuticals, and personal care items. Even if you’ve never heard of surface-active agents, you’ve most certainly encountered them in your daily life. Not only are our products used in a huge range of industrial and consumer products, they are remarkably flexible: they can emulsify, disperse, wet, aggregate, foam, de-foam, disinfect, soften and more. If you’re hoping to learn more about chemical surfactants – their application uses, functionalities and benefits – you’ve come to the right place.
