Mitsui Technology
Mitsui Advanced Media is the
industry specialist at CD-R and DVD-R manufacturing. We produce a complete
range of CD-R and DVD-R media, (once-only recordable discs) and hold a worldwide patent on one of the key components involved in the manufacturing process.
Mitsui offers the highest-quality and most durable recordable media available.
Offering a wide range of CD-R and DVD-R media, it is chiefly designed
for professionals and industry specialists who need to store, distribute
and duplicate data.
CD-R technology
As a chemical company, Mitsui Chemicals Inc. has spent 70
years gaining expertise with organic dyes. Since the laser which
records the data burns the dye, it is a key aspect of the technology required
to manufacture a high-quality CD-R. Indeed, Mitsui's greatest strength lies
in its world patent on
Phthalocyanine, the best organic dye currently
available.
A CD-R contains
- a polycarbonate layer
- a dye layer (azo or cyanine or Phthalocyanine)
- a reflective layer (gold or silver)
- a protective lacquer layer
- a "Diamond Coat&tm; protective layer exclusive to Mitsui
With its worldwide patent on
Phthalocyanine (tha-lo-sy-a-neen), Mitsui, by integrating this into the
manufacture of its media, derives considerable advantages, and coupled
with other strengths in manufacturing, has become a quality leader in the
industry. The
different properties of Phthalocyanine dye helps make Mitsui media the
best on the market, as it allies excellent quality with very high
strength, remarkable reflectivity, low stress and ideal compatibility.
What is more, during the recording process, the Phthalocyanine burns
more accurately and faster than other dyes, which allows for first
class fidelity in the retransmission of the
information.
The distinguishing feature of the Mitsui Company
resides in the fact that it has mastered all the manufacturing stages
of CD-R media. In fact, today Mitsui is the only company to control
100% of its manufacturing chain (polycarbonate, dye, lacquer
and diamond layer), and which does not therefore depend on another company
to produce its media.
