China’s Fushun Petrochemical plans to shut its 92,000 tonne/year acrylonitrile (ACN) plant at Fushun in Liaoning province on around 19-21 May for scheduled maintenance, a company source said on Friday.
The shutdown period will last around 15 days, which will lead to a loss of about 3,500 tonnes of ACN, the source said.
ACN prices were assessed at yuan (CNY) 13,600-13,800/tonne ($2,183-2,215/tonne) ex-tank east China on 9 May, unchanged from previous day, according to Chemease, an ICIS service in China.
