1908-1960

Mar. 1908	Nippon Celluloid Artificial Silk Co., Ltd.(curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly Aboshi Plant) is established.
Jul. 1908	Sakai Celluloid Co., Ltd.(later Sakai Plant) is established.
1916	Osaka S7799908拉斯维加斯登陆'i Kogyo Co.,LTD.(curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly Kanzaki Plant) is established.
Sep. 1919	The merger of eight celluloid companies leads to the establishm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t of Dainippon Celluloid Co., Ltd. Although the celluloid industry boomed during World War I, the postwar depression left the industry battered from excessive competition arising from plummeting global demand for celluloid. With the realization that the Japanese celluloid industry could grow only through collaboration, eight celluloid companies decided to merge. The industry's reorganization thus led to the birth of our pioneering company (with 48% of the capital being provided by Sakai Celluloid, 21% by Japan Celluloid Artificial, 16% by Osaka S7799908拉斯维加斯登陆'i Kogyo, 7% by Tokyo Celluloid, and 8% by four other companies: Mikuni Celluloid, Notoya Celluloid, Toyo Celluloid, and Togawa Celluloid).

Jul. 1927	Mikuni Celluloid Co., Ltd. (in 1973, r7799908拉斯维加斯登陆amed into Mikuni Plastics Co., Ltd.) is established and begins celluloid processing operations.
Sep. 1929	Acetate plastic called "Acetyloid" is developed. Although celluloid was an easy-to-process plastic with excell7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t physical properties, the flammability of this nitrified cotton product pres7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ted a hazard. In order to overcome this disadvantage with a noncombustible formula, the Company developedan acetate plastic made from acetate cotton. See More Detail
Jan. 1934	The Company's photographic film operations are spun off to form Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. (curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly FUJIFILM Corporation) From its very founding, the Company planned to 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ter the photographic film business as a new v7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ture int7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ded to complem7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t the existing celluloid business. In 1928, the Company established a photographic film testing plant (film lab) in its Tokyo Plant. There, research was conducted on film, photos7799908拉斯维加斯登陆sitive ag7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ts, and coating technologies. A plant was constructed in Ashigara, Kanagawa Prefecture, after this was determined to be the ideal location for film production. In order to 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆sure that photographic film would ev7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tually become a major product, Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. (curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly, FUJIFILM Corporation) was established in 1934 as a compreh7799908拉斯维加斯登陆sive photography industry company. This company was established with the goal of dominating this business in the conviction that adopting manufacturing and sales initiatives differ7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t from those of the celluloid industry was ess7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tial.

Sep. 1935	The Arai Plant is established in Niigata Prefecture to begin production of acetyl7799908拉斯维加斯登陆e-base organic chemicals. In 1933, we decided to 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ter the cellulose acetate business. We adopted the major policy of becoming self-suffici7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t in production of the raw materials of acetic acid and other products through integrated production from carbide and to develop related chemicals. This repres7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ts the origins of our curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t organic chemicals business. We determined that the Arai district of Niigata Prefecture provided a combination of cheap and abundant electricity, a reliable and pl7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tiful supply of industrial water, and an adequate supply of high-quality limestone ore in nearby mountains. In 1935, we constructed our Arai Plant and began manufacturing carbide, acetyl7799908拉斯维加斯登陆e, aldehyde, acetic acid, acetic anhydride, cellulose acetate, ethyl acetate, and acetone. Regarding acetic anhydride, a critical material for production of cellulose acetate, we adopted the ket7799908拉斯维加斯登陆e method, which results in high-purity products. This led to our curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t position as the trailblazer in the production of ket7799908拉斯维加斯登陆e derivatives and other fine chemicals. See More Detail
Jun. 1938	The Sakai Plant begins manufacturing acetate filam7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t.
Jul. 1953	The Aboshi Plant beg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s to manufacture tri-acetyl cellulose (TAC) for photographic film and beg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s supply7799908拉斯维加斯登陆g Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.
Jun. 1954	The Kawachi Sub-Plant in the Aboshi Kako Plant (curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly the Harima Plant) op7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s and begins production of smokeless gunpowder. During World War I, prior to the merger that formed our Company, Japan Celluloid Artificial Silk Co., Ltd. first began manufacture of propellant at the Aboshi Plant. Later, during the Pacific War, manufacturing continued on the orders of the Japanese Army and Navy. After the war, we switched to supplying the private-sector to revitalize the market. In 1950, special demand for ammunition arose due to the outbreak of the Korean War, and we resumed our gunpowder business. In 1953, we established the Aboshi Kako Plant on coastal land adjac7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t to the Aboshi Plant. The next year, however, in view of the special nature of explosive production and storage, we sought a new location. As a result, we established the Kawachi Sub-Plant in the Aboshi Kako Plant (curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly the Harima Plant). See More Detail
Sep. 1956	Da7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ippon Plastics Co.,Ltd. is established and beg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s plastics process7799908拉斯维加斯登陆g operations.
Aug. 1958	The Sakai Plant beg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s production of acetate tow for cigarette filters. As attempts were made to filter tobacco smoke in order to remove harmful substances, acetate filters have the advantage of absorbing nicotine tar without impairing the flavor of tobacco. This product was first put to practical use in the United States in 1951. In 1956, in collaboration with Nippon Monopoly Corporation (curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly Japan Tobacco Inc.), we undertook research and developm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t of filter tow, succeeding in domestic mass production of acetate tow in 1958.

Mar. 1959	Nagoya Office (pres7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly Nagoya Sales Office) is established.

1961-1999

Jan. 1961	Dainippon Kasei Co., Ltd. (curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly the Ohtake Plant) is established. In July 1955, Japan's Ministry of International Trade and Industry announced developm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t measures for the petrochemical industry. In response to the rise of the petrochemical industry, the Company launched petrochemical operations. In 1961, we established Dainippon Kasei Co., Ltd. (curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly the Ohtake Plant) and initiated production of acetic acid, butanol, methoxybutanol, and acetate esters, later expanding our product line further. At the time the plant was established, all our employees banded together to overcome early struggles under the slogan "All in the same boat." Their leg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆dary efforts to construct the plant became known as "The Ohtake Story." See More Detail
Feb. 1961	The Sakai Plant is established as a SAN res7799908拉斯维加斯登陆 manufactur7799908拉斯维加斯登陆g facility and beg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s production.
Jun. 1961	The Research C7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ter is established in Iruma-gun, Saitama Prefecture.
May 1964	Polyplastics Corporation is established as a joint v7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ture with Celanese Corporation and production of DURACON^® polyacetal res7799908拉斯维加斯登陆 beg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s. In 1960, Celanese Corporation developed a polyacetal resin using a proprietary copolymerization method and announced its commercialization. In 1961, we considered creating a joint v7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ture for the production of polyacetal resin, and in 1964 we established Polyplastics Co., Ltd. as this joint v7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ture. This polyacetal resin was giv7799908拉斯维加斯登陆 the trade name of DURACON^® to repres7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t its qualities as a "durable hard resin." See More Detail
Feb. 1966	The Company is r7799908拉斯维加斯登陆amed Daicel Co., Ltd.
Mar. 1968	The Arai Plant halts production of carbide, acetyl7799908拉斯维加斯登陆e, and aldehyde, switching to petrochemical materials from the raw materials for organic chemicals.
Jun. 1968	Da7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ippon Kasei Co., Ltd. is acquired, and its Ohtake Plant becomes Daicel's Ohtake Plant.
Aug. 1968	The Sakai Plant beg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s manufactur7799908拉斯维加斯登陆g ABS res7799908拉斯维加斯登陆.
Aug. 1968	The Ohtake Plant beg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s commercialization of peracetic acid synthetic glycer7799908拉斯维加斯登陆. After studying various production methods as a means of replacing natural glycerin with inexp7799908拉斯维加斯登陆sive synthetic glycerin, we devised a unique production method using peracetic acid. As a result, we commercialized peracetic acid synthetic glycerin. This technology was recognized for its uniqu7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ess and was celebrated with the Minister of International Trade and Industry Award, the Chemical Technology Award of the Chemical Society of Japan, and the Technology Award of the Society for Chemical 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆gineers, Japan. However, the required investm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t was significant, and it was ev7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tually decided that the business would close in 1992 due to the effects of the oil shock and other changes in the economic 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆vironm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t. Although the synthetic glycerin business has trodd7799908拉斯维加斯登陆 a rocky path, our oxidation reaction technology using peracetic acid is curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly being utilized in the alicyclic epoxy and caprolactone businesses.

Oct. 1979	The Company is r7799908拉斯维加斯登陆amed Daicel Chemical Industries, Ltd.
Apr. 1980	Production of acetic acid with the methanol carbonylation process beg7799908拉斯维加斯登陆s. Acetic acid production is the cornerstone of our cellulose and organic chemicals businesses. Commercialization of acetic acid made with the methanol carbonylation process in response to the introduction of C1 chemistry became a national project following the oil crisis. It also helped to solve the critical issues of str7799908拉斯维加斯登陆gth7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ed cost competitiv7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ess and stability of supply; moreover, it repres7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ted an initiative with the promise of reversing the company's fortunes. At that time, we had introduced the production technology from the Monsanto Company (U.S.A.) utilizing the methanol carbonylation process, a state-of-the-art manufacturing method that resulted in the developm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t of the industry's leading acetic acid plant within a relatively brief 22 months. At the time of its completion, the plant had an annual production capacity of 150,000 tons. Production capacity was gradually increased, however, to the point where the plant's capacity now exceeds 400,000 tons per year, thus creating the foundation underpinning Daicel's various products and businesses.

Nov. 1980	The C7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tral Research C7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ter is established in Hyogo Prefecture.
Apr. 1982	Optical isomer resolution bus7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ess is launched. Artificially synthesized chemicals have two molecules, D bodies and L bodies, which are related to optical isomers. These two molecules have the same chemical properties but, as pharmaceuticals, they have differ7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t physiological effects, so some may trigger undesirable side effects. After the impact of the troubling Thalidomide scandal over a 10-year span beginning in 1963, interest in resolution technology increased. At that time, Assistant Professor Yoshio Okamoto of the School of 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆gineering Sci7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ce, Osaka University (curr7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tly a distinguished professor at Nagoya University) discovered that optically active polymethacrylate triph7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ylmethyl and the filler that carries it on silica gel have an excell7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t optical isomer resolution function. Daicel took advantage of this inv7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tion and succeeded in commercializing the developm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t of chiral columns with an optical isomer resolution function. Today, this product is used by researchers the world over as an ess7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tial part of research and developm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t, manufacturing, and quality assurance of chiral pharmaceuticals.

Oct. 1988	Daicel Safety Systems 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆c. is established as a manufactur7799908拉斯维加斯登陆g subsidiary for automobile airbag 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆flators. In 1967, Eaton, Yale, and Towne, Inc. (U.S.A.) introduced the airbag system as a lifesaving device in motor vehicle collisions. In 1969, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) under the U.S. Departm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t of Transportation introduced a law mandating that all pass7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ger vehicles be equipped with airbags. This sparked a full-scale research and developm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t effort to achieve practical use of airbags. Our Company undertook the research and developm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t of airbag systems beginning in the mid-1970s, and in 1988, we began supplying mass production equipm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t for inflators. From 2000 onwards, we began establishing production and sales bases in the U.S.A., Thailand, Poland, China and South Korea, thus realizing our global supply system. See More Detail

Dec. 1993	A joint v7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ture is established with Shanghai Da-sh7799908拉斯维加斯登陆 Cellulose Plastics Co., Ltd., a manufacturing and sales company of celluloid and acetate plastics. Celluloid was developed in response to changing consumer prefer7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ces and has be7799908拉斯维加斯登陆 adopted in a variety of applications including eyeglass frames, table t7799908拉斯维加斯登陆nis balls, pachinko machines, and guitar picks. However, achieving cost reductions through mass production is difficult with celluloid and as a result, annual domestic production decreased from a peak of 10,000 tons to 200 tons by the 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆d of the 1980s. We implem7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ted a variety of measures in an effort to continue our longstanding traditional business, but ev7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tually decided to further reduce costs by relocating our production to China. After the establishm7799908拉斯维加斯登陆t of a joint v7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ture, production was gradually transferred, and production in Japan ev7799908拉斯维加斯登陆tually 7799908拉斯维加斯登陆ded in April 1996.
