Dow Binh Chemical builds up tetrachloroethylene company

Dow Chemical Co., Ltd. and Binhua Group Co., Ltd. recently announced that both parties have signed a memorandum on the joint venture to produce perchloroethylene, and the joint venture will own 50% of each of Dow and Binhua.

It is reported that the two parties will build a world-scale plant of tetrachloroethylene in Binzhou, Shandong Province, China. The initial goal is to produce 40,000 tons of tetrachloroethylene per year and have the capacity to increase annual production to 80,000 tons. If all goes well, the plant is expected to start production in 2014.

Carol Williams, president of Dow Chemicals and Energy, said that Dow's joint venture with Binhua is another important milestone in achieving the company's strategic goals. It not only meets the strategic goals of the two companies, but also helps. Dow expands its manufacturing business in China.

Shi Bojun, president of Dow Chemical Greater China, pointed out that the cooperation with Binhua will help improve Dow's influence in China and meet the increasing customer demand in the regional market.

According to reports, non-ozone depleting fluorocarbon refrigerants are suitable for industrial, automotive and household applications. Global demand for hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) refrigerants is increasing. The market for perchloroethylene in China is also growing rapidly, but the local supply so far has been very limited. The planned Dow-Branch joint venture project aims to capture this crucial market opportunity.

Vacuum Forming Plastic

Vacuum-formed plastic is used to produce a variety of custom design parts.Vacuum forming become to be a popular and cost-effective solution for a wide range of plastic forming needs.


The product's application must be taken into consideration while selecting the material. Normal vacuum forming plastic included:Polyester, HDPE, LDPE, PVC,PETG,polypropylene, polystyrene, ABS, acrylics, polycarbonate, ASA as well as other ABS capped acrylic and ABS capped polycarbonate.


ABS plastic also named Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene,is the most widely used in vacuum forming and available in a range of textured, smooth and embossed finishes, offered in virgin, recycled,UV resistant and flame retardant grades(UL94-V0). As good impact resistance ABS usually is vacuum formed for vehicle,equipment,plastic tray and so on industrial.


HIPS plastic also named High Impact Polystyrene ,is most used in Point of Sale (POS), display and signage market due to its visual appearance (colour options, gloss level, texture), the ease with which it can be processed along with its antistatic and electrical conductivity.


HDPE plastic also named High-Density Polyethylene,is widely used in indoor and outdoor applications including bottles, playground equipment packaging and furniture. It is a plastic with high tensile strength, and good chemical and corrosion resistance.And it has properties of recycling,UV stabilised, improved impact resistance.


PP Plastic also named Polypropylene,is similar to PE. But PE is more harder more heat resistant.But PP is more durable.Mostly plastic tray is produced by PP plastic.


PMMA plastic also named acrylic or glass fiber.It has properties of tensile strength, transparency, polishability and UV tolerance but less impact strength.It is available in clear, antiglare, opal, white, and frosted.It is best choice for windows, displays or see-through enclosures.


PETG named Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol is another clear rigid plastic sheet.PETG is easily vacuum formed, printed, bonded and polished. As its' excellent clarity and impact resistance, it is widely used in outdoor application.


PC named polycarbonate, has combined advantage of PMMA and ABS. Usually is transparency and semi- transparency. It is expensive but that is best choice for clear plastic vacuum forming.



ASA is one new material which has all good properties of ABS. But much good UV resistant for outdoor usage. It usually be used for radome,air conditioning housing etc outdoor products.



Meanwhile, ABS capped acylic combined the good properties of ABS and acylic. ABS capped polycarbonate combined the good properties of ABS and polycarbonate.If you need high glossy surface for your design,then this is your only choice.
