Yanshan puts halo-butyl into production
ERJ staff report (DS)
Beijing - Yanshan Petrochemical said it has so far produced 1200 tonnes of bromo-butyl rubber, since bringing its production line on stream.
The company said it has used its own technology to halogenate the basic butyl rubber, and expects soon to have the unit fully commissioned.
The company said initial trials show that its product is equivalent to imported products, and expects that it will be able to reduce substantially imports of foreign-made bromo-butyl.
