Thread Content

Recently, the industrial test project for the complete set of technologies for the synthesis of octene and other α-olefins at the Second Chemical Plant of Daqing Petrochemical Company, whose design and supervision were undertaken by Global Daqing Company, was successfully completed. The industrial test project for the integrated technology for the synthesis of α-olefins such as octene is one of the major scientific and technological initiatives of PetroChina Corporation; it is also one of the key research topics under the **Key Research and Development Program on Key Technologies for the Production of High-Performance Lubricants**. Linear α-olefins are among the most important basic raw materials in the chemical industry. They are primarily used as comonomers for high-quality polyethylenes, and they also serve as fundamental building blocks for high-value products such as higher-carbon alcohols, plasticizer alcohols, surfactants, synthetic lubricants, lubricant additives, oilfield chemicals, fine chemicals, and functional chemicals. Widely applied in fields such as petroleum refining, chemical manufacturing, oilfield chemistry, and fine chemicals, they hold a crucial position in world trade.
