South Korea’s Daesan MMA (DMMA) is expected to restart its 90,000 tonne/year methyl methacrylate (MMA) plant in Daesan next week following a turnaround, a source close to the company said on Friday.
The plant was taken offline on 15 May for scheduled maintenance, according to the source.
DMMA has another MMA plant in Yeosu which has a nameplate capacity of 98,000 tonnes/year.
The company is a joint venture between Japan’s Mitsubishi Rayon Co (MRC) and South Korea’s Honam Petrochemical.
