Share:

Houston (Polymerupdate): LyondellBasell, a large global petrochemical enterprise, announced that one of its butadiene (BD) plants has suspended production. Butadiene is a core basic raw material for products such as synthetic rubber and ABS resin. The shutdown of the plant will directly affect the supply of regional butadiene commodity sources. The specific reasons for the shutdown, the location of the plant, the production capacity scale and the planned restart time are not disclosed in this flash news. The market will continue to track subsequent announcements to evaluate the impact on the butadiene industry chain in Europe and even the world.

The downstream applications of butadiene cover varieties such as cis-polybutadiene rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, ABS and SBS elastomer, and it is a key raw material to the tire and plastic items industries. The temporary shutdown of the plant might support the strengthening of butadiene spot prices in the short term, and also传导 to downstream items such as synthetic rubber and ABS.
