Nylon Chain Report 2008
24 Dec, 2008, | | Asia is a major nylon producing and consuming region in the world with a share of 47% in global supplies and 45% of global consumption. In 2007, the region produced 1.85 million tons of nylon (S+F) which was 7.8% higher than the numbers of 2006. Consumption in similar comparison was up 4.4%. Both these growth rates were lower than those of 2006. North America was the second largest producer / consumer of nylon with share of 29% in global market. The share of West Europe has been declining as capacities – both upstream and downstream – are shifting to low cost areas in Asia. Full story.. | | | YnFx Acryloniotrile / ASF Global Analysis 2008
06 Nov, 2008, | | Acrylonitrile capacity expansion has been sluggish in recent years. Between 2000 and 2007, only 600,000 tons were added. Thus, as of end of 2007, the total capacity stood at 6.2 million tons. In 2007, 217,500 tons were added as against the deletion of similar size capacity in 2006. The sluggish addition to capacity has been reflected in the surge in capacity utilisation. In 2007, it clocked a rate of 82% as against 79% in 2006 and 60% a decade ago. Capacity utilisation had peaked 94% in 2003 when almost 300,000 tons were put out of production in the preceding two years. Full story.. | | |
