中国石化新闻网讯 据悉，日本瑞翁公司表示，公司计划明年初在新加坡建设第二条溶聚丁苯橡胶（SSBR）生产线，届时公司在新加坡的SSBR产能将翻番至7万吨-8万吨/年的水平。该项目总投资70亿日元（5780万美元），将利用瑞翁公司自有的技术。该生产线建成后，新加坡SSBR工厂的产能将大于瑞翁公司在日本德山的工厂，日本德山工厂的产能为5.5万吨/年。瑞翁公司预计SSBR需求将以年均7%-8%的速度增长，这种产品主要用于节能型轮胎。瑞翁公司表示，公司选择扩大新加坡产能是因为可以从壳牌新加坡公司获得丁二烯原料。

Zeon to double SSBR capacity in Singapore

Natasha Alperowicz

Zeon (Tokyo) says it will build a second solution styrene butadiene rubber (SSBR) line in Singapore by the beginning of next year, doubling capacity at the site to between 70,000-80,000 m.t./year. The company is spending ¥7 billion ($57.8 million) on the project, which will use Zeon's own technology. On completion, the Singapore complex will be larger than the company's plant at Tokuyama, Japan, where it has 55,000 m.t./year of SSBR capacity. Zeon is anticipating demand for SSBR, used in fuel-efficient tires, to grow at 7-8%/year. The company says it opted to expand capacity in Singapore because of the availability of butadiene raw material from Shell's complex.
