Solvay to build large specialty polymers production plant in China

 Solvay is bui lding a special ty polymers production plant for Solef Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF), Tecnoflon Fluoroelastomers (FKM) and their essential monomer VF2 in China to satisfy the growing demand for these high value-added specialty polymers in Asia. The plant will be built at Solvay's Industrial site in Changshu in the province of Jiangsu and is scheduled to become operational in early 2014. It requires an investment of € 120 million and will significantly boost Solvay's global production capacity for these specialty polymers. The new plant in Changshu will be built next to the compounding plant under construction for Amodel polyphthalamide (PPA), Ixef polyarylamide (PARA) and Kalix (modified PARA) which is scheduled to become operational in the last quarter of 2012.
