Degussa intends to invest into a methacrylate “Verbund”
Degussa AG, Dusseldorf/Germany, intends to construct a facility in China for manufacturing the standard monomer methyl methacrylate (MMA) as well as various methacrylate specialties. The world- scale facility could come on stream in 2008/2009. “Our plans for an MMA facility in China underscore our global growth strategy. This facility would see us consolidating our position as a leading global manufacturer of methacrylates”, emphasizes Dr Manfred Spindler, Head of the Degussa Specialty Polymers Division. MMA and specialty monomers are components used in a wide variety of applications, such as scratch-proof paints and top- quality adhesives.
