SK Global Chemical (SKGC) has no plans to restart operations at its styrene monomer (SM) plant in 2015.

A Polymerupdate source in South Korea informed that the decision to keep the plant shut has been attributed to weak margins for the product. The plant has been under a shutdown since August 2014.

Located at Ulsan in South Korea, the plant has a product capacity of 350,000 mt/year.
