Downstream options for high-purity isobutylene
Thread Content
At present, conventional options such as MMA, butyl rubber, polyisobutylene, etc., seem to face considerable difficulties in achieving technological breakthroughs. Are there any new technologies? We’d be happy to discuss them; our company is planning to get started with these technologies
Where does the high-purity isobutylene from your company come from? ?
In fact, there are already several companies in China that use isobutylene oxidation to produce MMA – Yantai Wanhua and one company in Taixing, so there are probably 4 to 5 such companies in the country. Polyisobutylene is produced by companies like Jingbo Chemical. It’s becoming difficult to launch chemical projects these days, especially those involving products with high technical requirements. Therefore, when starting such a project, several factors need to be taken into consideration: the availability of utility facilities in the industrial park, the source of raw materials, the source of technology, market conditions, and so on. It’s very hard to proceed without any of these elements! If what you lack now is just technology, I think it’s feasible to acquire it or partner with a company that has such technology, as long as you’re willing to do so!
The market aspect is also a challenge; companies located in central China face difficulties, as their production and sales are mainly directed towards eastern China
What process does your company use to produce high-purity isobutylene? ?
Therefore, preliminary market research is extremely important. I’m not sure if you conduct feasibility studies; you can also hire a firm specializing in such studies to carry out the relevant data collection.
Bro, I can consider myself half a professional in this field now. The main issue is that I lack confidence in breaking through technical barriers; let’s see if there are any new technologies available

What foundational work have you done in terms of technological breakthroughs, and what are those breakthroughs? Has any research been done on related technologies? Was there a technical comparison done? None of these things can be resolved for you on a forum.
Overall, it’s mainly because the company lacks confidence in competing with other firms in the same industry; the forums are simply a way to find out if there are any new technologies related to this field. In the future, they plan to conduct on-site investigations. It’s just boring too; I browse forums while at work, haha:lol
