Sunchem Group is in plans to begin commercial operations at its new styrene monomer (SM) plant in China. A Polymerupdate source in China informed that the plant is likely to come on-stream by end-Feb 2016. Construction of the plant has been completed. The SM produced at this plant is most likely to be used at its downstream EPS facilities in China. The company operates two EPS plants namely 360,000 mt/year plant at Jiangyin in eastern China and 120,000 mt/year plant at Dalian. Located at Hainan, China, the new SM plant has a production capacity of 100,000 mt/year.
