Limited Impact On The Chemical Industry In Japan Earthquake

Currently across the country from the Japanese point of view, a large earthquake on Japan's chemical industry had little effect,CAS 12018-10-9, only in the Kashima "joint chemical device" under the influence.

Because after the earthquake, electricity, ports, roads and other infrastructure were damaged, leading to some important additives and raw materials supply to be affected; addition,Copper ChromiteCC supplier, as part of the business affected by reduced customer demand, the production of the chemical industry. But the impact that relevant Chinese enterprises won the opportunity.

According to reports, nearly all chemical manufacturing plant in Japan are "joint device", that is, the major domestic chemical companies were involved, and together constitute the industrial chain. Which not many factories earthquake,Copper ChromiteCC, only by the Kashima plant and is expected to resume production at the latest by the end of June, but could not immediately postpartum recovery full load operation.

In addition, because the induction of Maruzen Petrochemical products factory near the refinery by pipeline fire implications, including the MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) devices are also affected. It is understood that the MEK unit annual output 17 million tons, is the only Japanese production of MEK device. While the chemical is widely used in printing inks and coatings raw materials, the future supply in Japan is worrying. Therefore, many Chinese manufacturers and trading companies are looking for suppliers, domestic enterprises will be more opportunities.

Although the measures planned power outage is expected to be concluded by the end of April, but with the arrival of summer,fine chemicals supplier, electricity demand will increase substantially. According to the Japanese government estimated that there will be 15 million kilowatts this summer, the gap, it is expected that there would be restraint in the introduction of electricity. The affected areas of the refinery and naphtha cracker has its own power generation equipment, therefore no cut-off due to power shortage caused concern. However, the attendant is to ensure the supply of heavy oil for power generation, as well as heavy oil consumption by the increased cost of ethylene production problems. Source: www.mhcfm.com
