Qilu details rubber capacity data
ERJ staff report (DS)
Qilu, China - China's largest synthetic rubber factory produced around 400 kt of polybutadiene rubber in 2011, despite having nominal capacity for just 270 kt.
A report on the China Rubber Industries Association (CRIA) website reports that its plant has no odour and promotes its environmental credentials. More interesting, however, is the information on the processes used in the plant.
