BASF to Build Large TDI Plant in Europe
BASF has announced plans to build an integrated toluene diisocyanate (TDI) complex in Europe by 2014. The single-train plant will be designed to produce 300,000 m.t./year of TDI and be located at the company's Antwerp or Ludwigshafen site. Engineering work is under way and the final site selection will be announced shortly, BASF says.
"This new investment supports BASF's growth strategy, underlines our leading position as the largest TDI producer and reinforces our strong commitment to the TDI market," says Martin Brudermüller, vice chairman of the board/plastics. TDI is a key component in the polyurethane industry. It is used in the automotive industry in seating cushions and in the furniture sector to produce flexible foams for mattresses and wood coatings. BASF also produces TDI at Geismar, LA; Schwarzheide, Germany; Yeosu, Korea; and Caojing, China
Questo implica che BASF prevede un' aumento dei consumi UE di derivati NCO quali i PU ma anche vernici (mobili ma NON solo) per esempio oppure parti di auto (sedili etc.) ... quindi pare che i settori sui quali prevedono uno sviluppo futuro sono questi ... Sarebbe interessante conoscere la vetustà globale del parco auto europeo, per esempio...
