Japan’s Mitsubishi Rayon Co (MRC) has shut its 55,000 tonne/year No 2 butane-based methyl methacrylate (MMA) lines in Otake earlier this week for a scheduled turnaround, a company source said on Friday.
The turnaround is expected to be completed by mid-April, the source added, without providing an exact shutdown date.
MRC also has a 55,000 tonne/year butane-based No 1 MMA line and a 107,000 tonne/year acetone cyanohydrin-based MMA line at the same site.
