PBR plant taken off-stream by Huayu Rubber

Huayu Rubber has taken off-stream its polybutadiene rubber (PBR) plant.

A Polymerupdate source in China informed that the plant was shut on July 6, 2015. The shutdown was attributed to weak demand fundamentals in the domestic markets.

Located in Shandong province, China, the plant has a production capacity of 160,000 mt/year.
