Lanzhou Petrochemical independently builds a large-scale styrene-butadiene rubber device

The reporter learned from the Economic Commission of Gansu Province that the largest domestic production of styrene-butadiene rubber plant was recently completed and put into operation at Lanzhou Petrochemical Company. This device produces 100,000 metric tons of styrene-butadiene rubber per year and is built entirely on its own technology.

The total investment of this project is 680 million yuan. Since it was started in March 2007, it will be a follow-up project of Lanzhou Petrochemical's annual production capacity of 700,000 tons ethylene plant. The project is based on domestically produced equipment. The production process is completely based on proprietary intellectual property technology developed by Lanzhou Petrochemical for many years. The main production unit of the polymerization method for continuous emulsion polymerization, the main raw material for the production of styrene, butadiene supplied by Lanzhou Petrochemical themselves, can produce eight brands of styrene-butadiene rubber products. Products can be widely used in automotive, civil, defense and other industries.

At present, the domestic market for rubber products has improved and the prices of products have steadily increased. The commissioning of 100,000 tons of styrene-butadiene rubber plant per year will not only become a new growth point for Lanzhou Petrochemical, but also stimulate the rapid development of the local styrene-butadiene rubber downstream industry.
