Thread Content

On October 29, Unit 1 of Maoming Petrochemical’s polymer production facility successfully developed a high-gloss impact-resistant polypropylene material named PPB-MG22. This new product will find wide application in the housings of vacuum cleaners, ironing machines, and other household appliances, holding very promising prospects. In terms of new product development, Maoming Petrochemical’s polypropylene products have made further progress. By taking into account the actual production conditions, they overcame challenges such as limited experience in reaction control during the trial production of new grades and the tendency of the powder material to stick together. As a result, they successfully developed the high-gloss impact-resistant polypropylene PPB-MG22. This new product can be used by large home appliance manufacturers such as Midea and Gree; it can replace not only metals and thermosetting plastics but also other thermoplastic materials. According to statistics, 167 tons of the new product were successfully produced in this trial run, and it will be gradually introduced to downstream markets in the future. (Ye Lianying, Yu Haiyan)
