Looming Production Shutdowns and Second Dip in Operating Rates Challenge Global Methyl Methacrylate Market

OUTLOOK ’17: US PX capacity flat, utilisation rates up Capacity for the US paraxylene (PX) market will likely be flat through 2025. Over the years, the economic crisis, along with problems specific to the PX sector, has led to some capacity rationalisation. While capacity is expected to remain steady, demand should rise because of a new derivative plant set to start up in the second quarter in Texas.

Other than the acetone (C3) and ethylene (C2)-based processes mentioned above, MMA can also be produced by isobutylene or tertiary butanol (C4)-based processes. “These options make MMA production very interesting from a process technology viewpoint,” said RJ Chang, director of chemical process technology research at IHS Markit, and an author of the IHS Markit Process Economics Programs on MMA technologies. “The competitive production economics is highly dependent on the relative price of C2, C3, and C4 feedstocks in each region. To make sound investment decisions, a company needs to take into account feedstock availability in each region and price fluctuations during the investment period,” Chang said.

The Baltimore Sun: North Baltimore Apartment Water Back On After Treatment To Remove Legionnaires’ Bacteria ater restrictions at a north Baltimore apartment complex have been lifted after several residents fell ill with Legionnaires’ disease, according to the manager of the complex and a letter from the health department.

Amongst End User, Packaging segment accounted held significant market share during the forecast period. The key players in this market are investing in finding innovative applications for food packaging taking into consideration its features, such as good gas barrier and printability properties. Furthermore, as the film can be printed with water-soluble inks, it is likely to add information regarding the food products. By region, North America holds a dominant position during the forecast period owing to the rising use of advanced technology in U.S. which has key manufacturing units related to food and chemicals, across the globe.

In our Life Science Vessels platform, we continue to make strong progress on the path to a new long-term multibillion-dollar franchise. Valor Glass substantially reduces particle contamination, breaks, and cracks, while significantly increasing throughput. Valor helps protect patients and improve pharmaceutical manufacturing. Key customers are advancing toward the FDA certification required for the use of Valor. We continue to make progress with our development partners, American Pfizer, and shipments are increasing to other major pharmaceutical manufacturers to support their individual drug regulatory filings. Total shipments of Valor Glass increased fourfold compared to 2017, indicating growing progress toward certification across more pharmaceutical companies. In parallel, we’re supporting customers by scaling up our production capabilities on pace with market adoption. We brought new capacity online in 2018 and extended our range of products. We’re also progressing with the construction of the new high volume manufacturing facility in North Carolina that we announced in April.

We evaluated the potential of the synergistic presentation of GFs and adhesion sites on biomaterials in vivo using a murine nonhealing radial bone defect model (39). This bone repair model has significant advantages: (i) the 2.5-mm defect does not spontaneously heal, providing a rigorous critical-size model; (ii) it allows for simple in vivo imaging approaches [for example, Faxitron and microcomputed tomography (μCT)]; and (iii) the ulna provides sufficient stabilization of the defect, and no fixation plates and hardware are required, thereby simplifying the surgical procedure and reducing the risk of infection, a major advantage over the rat calvaria and segmental femur defect models (39).

OUTLOOK ’17: US toluene to track gasoline, aromatics US prices for toluene are likely to follow developments in markets for gasoline and other major aromatics such as benzene and xylene. The US toluene market is structurally long with much recoverable product being left in the gasoline pool.
