Wacker Investing in New Production Plants For Polymer Products at Its Nanjing Site

摘要

Wacker Chemie plans to invest about $100-million in the construction of a reactor for vinyl acetate ethylene copolymer (VAE) dispersions and a spray dryer for VAE dispersi-ble polymer powders at its Nanjing, China, site. The project, which will more than double Wacker's production capacity in Nanjing, is expected to come on stream in the second half of 2022. Once complete, the plants will be the "largest" of their kind in the world, the company noted.
