DYTEK®2PN (2-pentenenitrile) is a unsaturated short chain nitrile that double bond makes it well suited as a chemical building block. DYTEK® 2PN is a co-product from the production of adiponitrile and offers economic alternative to many applications where adiponitrile may not be an economical alternative and may be used as an alternative to acrylonitrile in some chemistries. Current derivatives of DYTEK®2PN go into the agricultural and pharmaceutical markets.

DYTEK® 2M3BN (2-methyl-3-butenitrile) is an unsaturated nitrile that is used as a chemical intermediate used in flavors and fragrances, dyes, and rubber and polymer applications.

DYTEK® MGN (methylglutaronitrile) is a short chain nitrile used as a chemical intermediate. This material is a co-product from the production of adiponitrile and offers economic alternative to many applications where adiponitrile is not economical. Currently derivatives of DYTEK® MGN go into the production of amines and solvents.

DYTEK® ADN (adiponitrile) is a high purity, short chain nitrile used largely as a chemical intermediate in the production of nylon 6,6. DYTEK®ADN is an aliphatic nitrile that has a high boiling point and is liquid at room temperature. Other niche applications include use in lithium-ion batteries.
