NEODENE

From polyethylene packaging to synthetic lubricants and drilling fluids, NEODENE* linear alpha and internal olefins are versatile products that form an integral part of the products made by our customers and their customers.

Linear olefins are straight-chain hydrocarbon molecules containing four or more carbons with a double bond between two carbon atoms. Alpha olefins include a double bond at the end of the chain (the alpha position), while internal olefins include a double bond inside the chain. The reactivity of the double bond provides numerous opportunities for creating products and chemical intermediates with unique performance characteristics.

These high purity olefins are colourless and are produced in a variety of single carbon numbers and blends.
