ABOUT PROPYLENE
Propylene
is an intermediate in
the production of other key semi-products used to make
* OXO alcohols (solvents, acrylic coatings, plasticisers),
* acrylic acid (acrylic coatings, superabsorbent polymers), and
* polypropylene,
which finds applications in the textile and automotive industries
(bumpers, car battery casings) and
in packaging production (crates, containers, films).
Besides ethylene, propylene is the major feedstock
in the chemical industry, used in the production of various materials,
including plastics, which are
an essential element of our everyday lives.
DETAILS
By 2019 the Group
aims to build Europe's largest and most advanced PDH unit
for propylene production,
sited in the town of Police.
In addition to the PDH unit, the project involves
* the construction of a power generating unit and
* expansion of the chemicals terminal in the port facilities
owned by the Group.
In terms of its size, the project is comparable to
building an entirely new chemical plant in the Szczecin region.
Once completed, the new propylene unit
will also significantly strengthen the Group's position
in the OXOPLAST segment.
