South Korea’s Daesan MMA (DMMA) has shut its 90,000 tonne/year methyl methacrylate (MMA) plant in Daesan on 15 May for scheduled maintenance, a source close to the company said on Friday.
The turnaround is expected last until 18 June, the source added.
The company has a separate MMA plant in Yeosu with a nameplate capacity of 98,000 tonnes/year.
DMMA is a joint venture between Japan’s Mitsubishi Rayon Co (MRC) and South Korea’s Honam Petrochemical.
