Ten years of rapid development in chemical technology – praise for China’s prosperity and strength. This is just a starting point; more participation from everyone will make things even more lively. HaiChuan becomes even better with your involvement; we welcome everyone to join in the forum discussions. Be careful with fire risks as the heat increases in July. ********************************************* In July 2023, Sinopec Yizheng Chemical Fibers’ project for producing 230,000 tons per year of intelligent melt-spinning polyester staple fibers completed the necessary inspection and verification steps, allowing the project to be delivered on schedule and to high standards. This marks an important step forward for Yizheng Chemical Fibers in its efforts to strengthen and optimize the aromatic hydrocarbon industry chain, adjust its product portfolio, and expand its core business areas under Sinopec’s leadership. The project for the intelligent production of 230,000 tons of melt-spun polyester staple fibers per year is the first project to be implemented as part of Yizheng Chemical Fibers’ 4 million tons per year integrated project for high-end green new materials. It is listed on Jiangsu Province’s list of major projects, with a total investment of 1.45 billion yuan. The project includes a polyester production line capable of producing 230,000 tons per year, along with 4 lines for producing hydroentangled non-woven polyester staple fibers at a rate of 25,000 tons per year each, and 4 lines for producing low-melting-point polyester staple fibers at a rate of 33,000 tons per year each. Additionally, there are utility systems and supporting facilities included in this project. The project is expected to be completed and put into operation gradually in August, which will help Yizheng Chemical Fiber maintain its leading position in the global production and sales of polyester staple fibers. It will also enhance Yizheng Chemical Fiber’s core competitiveness in the market for high-end and specialty fiber products.
