European TDI December contract rises as market shortage continues

摘要

LONDON (ICIS)--The majority of European toluene di-isocyanate (TDI) contracts in December have been settled up ?150/tonne on both ends, according to sources this Wednesday. Some of the contracts settled before the force majeure at Germany’s BASF Ludwigshafen plant had settled, however, at a rollover. This split in the market has formed around the announcement that BASF's facility has been taken offline on 22 November, not long after starting up, to deal with a leak.
