Basic R&D StrategyWe pursue technology innovation driven by practical R&D and creative R&D. Through practical R&D, we respond to a wide range of customer needs by continuously improving production technologies for existing businesses. In creative R&D, we make the most of our cumulative strengths in manufacturing to create new businesses for future growth.Having pioneered the production of graphite electrodes and carbon black in Japan, Tokai Carbon has developed proprietary technologies in a broad range of areas including high temperature processing and nano-Tokai Carbon is an expert in carbon technology. We aim to continue growing by developing practical carbon technologies for customer needs and using next-generation carbon technologies to create new businesses.Business OverviewResearch & DevelopmentR&D Organizationlevel surface treatment. By continuing to refine these technologies and adopting new technologies, we have given rise to new businesses that cross the boundaries of our existing operations. Examples include semiconductor silicon and other fine carbon products, and anode materials made with next-generation carbon technology. To remain an expert in carbon technology, we will continue to take in technical innovations from society, engage in technical collaborations with other companies, and strive to develop people who will thrive in a globalized environment.Creative R&DCreation of New Businesses that Cross Business BoundariesImprovement of product quality and productivity in existing businesses• Development of functional components for the CASE automobile industry and the era of 5G and IoT• Development of functional materials for environmental conservation• Creation of the next big business after anode materialsChita LaboratoryCarbon blackHofu LaboratoryGraphite electrodesTanoura Production Technology SectionFine carbonShonan Production Technology SectionFriction materialsFuji Research LaboratoryChigasaki AnnexCollaborationGovernmentUniversitiesCompaniesR & D Strategy DivisionProduction Technology CenterAnode materialsDevelopment Department / Technology Section Industrial furnaces• Development of new materials • Development of new technologies• Research support for other businessesPractical R&D• Advances in production technology and quality, cost reduction, and reduced environmental burden• Rapid, precise responses to customer needs• Development of new carbon black, fine carbon, and friction material products30TOKAI CARBON ANNUAL REPORT 2018
