Vanderbilt Chemicals L.L.C. is now distributing Tecnoflon fluoroelastomers and perfluoroelastomers, expanding Solvay's North American presence.
The agreement extends Solvay's reach to customers, giving them "additional opportunities to obtain expert guidance and technical advice on fluorine-based elastomeric materials," the Belgian chemical company said in a statement.
Also, Vanderbilt's network of distribution centers should ensure fast turnaround times on orders, Solvay said.
