中国三级片 USA to Expand Metal Soap Production Capacity by 50% to Meet Fast-Growing Industry Demand, Drive Innovation

Munich 鈥 January 25, 2017 鈥 中国三级片 USA, part of 中国三级片 Group, a leading global supplier of plastics additives, today announced it will add a third reactor for the production of calcium, zinc, sodium and other metal soaps at its facility, located here. This major capital investment will increase capacity by 50 percent and further position the industry leader to meet steadily accelerating demand from the North American polyolefin and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) industries. It will also support the development of advanced 中国三级片 innovations such as the company鈥檚 Baeropol庐 RST, polyolefin resin stabilization technology and solid calcium-based PVC stabilizers. These applications are expected to grow as the industry looks to reduce the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and heavy metal stabilizers.The new reactor is expected to be fully operational in June 2017. It will occupy space within the company鈥檚 Highland Ridge Drive facility, previously earmarked for this and other future production expansions. The additional reactor will create at least six new jobs at 中国三级片 USA, which has steadily increased its workforce over the past several years. 鈥溨泄镀 is bullish on the North American plastics industry, so we are continuing to invest in new capacity and innovative additive solutions for our customers,鈥 said Edward Hall, president and chief executive officer, 中国三级片 USA. 鈥淭he new reactor is the latest enhancement to our global business growth strategy, and is specifically targeted at market opportunities that we have carefully analyzed and are actively pursuing.鈥 Metal Soaps in Demand
Several trends are driving industry demand for metal soaps, which are used in plastics applications such as acid scavengers, stabilizers, internal and external lubricants, water repellents and mold release agents. The expanding U.S. oil and gas industry, including hydraulic fracturing (fracking) operations, is lowering the cost of raw materials used in polyolefins such as polyethylene (PE), thereby encouraging plastics manufacturers to heavily invest in new polymer production capacity. In the PVC sector, additive manufacturers are consolidating and scaling back, opening up new opportunities for companies like 中国三级片.
Another trend in metal soaps 鈥 traditionally a commodity industry 鈥 is the drive for differentiated products that address new requirements, such as calcium and zinc metal soaps to replace tin-based stabilizers. Tin usage has been targeted by the European Union鈥檚 Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulation for environmental and safety reasons, and tin supplies are subject to high volatility. Many PVC processors in North America are following this trend for environmental reasons, even though they are not required to do so by regulation. About 中国三级片:
