Cationic reagents
Raisacat®

Our production facility at Mietoinen is specialised in the production of cationic reagents. Cationic reagents can be used in the production of positively charged products. The cationic charge improves polymer adhesion to anionic material, such as fibres. Raisacat products are important raw materials in several technical applications.

Cationic reagents can be used for applications such as starch modification, chemical processing, hygiene products, the textile industry, and water treatment products.
