Norbornene or norbornylene or norcamphene is a bridged cyclic hydrocarbon. It is a white solid with a pungent sour odor. The molecule consists of a cyclohexene ring with a methylene bridge between carbons 1 and 4. The molecule carries a double bond which induces significant ring strain and significant reactivity.
The 2-Norbornene industry is an oligopoly, that is, a market with a very limited number of producers, a result of the high market entry barriers of high capital costs and the time-consuming and expensive process of product specification for final usage. The main players are Japanese manufacturers;the main production areas are located in Japan and Germany. TOPAS Advanced Polymers, Zeon, Mitsui Chemicals and JSR are the world\'s leading market players. TOPAS Advanced Polymers, Zeon, Mitsui Chemicals and JSR are the COC manufacturer in the world, and 2-Norbornene is an essential intermediate for the synthesis of COC. More than 97% of the products are used in the synthesis of COC, and only a small percentage of the products are sold to the external market.
