| Braskem extends bioplastics range with LLDPE |
|
Brazilian chemicals group Braskem is claiming a second significant breakthrough in the bioplastics sector with development of a bio-based route to produce butene, allowing it to develop a bio-derived LLDPE. The company has already delivered pilot scale quantities of HDPE into the market using bio-ethylene derived from sugar cane. It is on course to begin commercial production of bio-HDPE with a 200,000tpa plant in Brazil in 2010. |
