Oxychem says JV Texas cracker on track to elimate ethylene purchases

Occidental Chemical said Thursday its 50:50 joint venture cracker with Mexican PVC producer Mexichem will provide it with an ongoing source of ethylene.

"The cracker is the first cracker constructed in the United States in 15 years," Oxychem President Rob Peterson said. He added that no future ethylene purchases are expected.

The project was completed on schedule and on budget, according to Oxychem and Mexichem.

The Ingleside Ethylene JV is a steam cracker adjacent to OxyChem's complex in Ingleside, along with pipeline and storage facilities in Markham.

Construction began in second-quarter 2014.

It was unclear when full rates will be reached this year but Mexichem said April 27 during its first-quarter earnings call that its estimate of a 70% run rate for 2017 still holds.

The ethylene cracker was previously said to be in a production stabilization phase on February 27, the companies said in a joint statement.

The steam cracker, which will be operated by Oxychem, will be capable of producing 1.2 billion lb (550,000 mt/year) of ethylene, according to the companies.

Oxychem is expected take the ethylene to produce downstream vinyl chloride monomer which will then be exported to Mexichem's operations in Mexico and Colombia to produce PVC, Peterson said.

Hongtu Auxuliary Shares You the Component Analysis and Recipe Restore of Smooth Agent

Image
Smoothing agent  is a kind of textile auxiliary frequently used. It is made using the formula and synthetic technology at home and abroad. It belongs to a class of novel and unique textile smoothing agents. At present, it is mainly used in wool and other animal fiber and cashmere blended fabric. The smooth agent can be emulsified and will not leave oil stains, but now it can not be used for washing silk products, it has the excellent performance of soft and slippery, etc. It has good elasticity and low yellow degree effect. The smooth agent can be in one bath with cationic softener and crease resistant resin. In common, it is especially suitable for padding and impregnation process. It was weakly positive ion, with super smooth feeling and excellent finishing performance and finishing property, so it is especially suitable for clothing and wool yarn. There is another kind of hydrophilic smoothing agent formula, it is in positive, and the main ingredients are an amino polyether, mod...

Softener Series

Image
Softening is an important finishing process in printing and dyeing. In this process, after repeating treatment, the hand feeling of fabric will become rough, the general synthetic fiber fabric much worse, especially microfiber fabric. In order to make the fabric soft and smooth, textile finishing process is required, and in this process, the most common used finishing agent is textile softener. Besides, in the chemical fiber spinning, all kinds of fiber spinning, weaving and other processes a large number of textile softeners are also applied. This is because with more and more high speed machining used in textile industry, the attrition between the fabric and equipment increases, leading more abrasions of fabric, and the use of textile softeners can avoid the friction. Therefore, fabric softener is one type of important textile auxiliaries. Textile softener is one of the most widely used agent in dyeing and finishing. According to the chemical structure, fabric softeners can be mainl...
