New Production Line
BASF has launched a high-performance dispersant production line at the Jiangbei New Material Technology Park in Nanjing, China. This facility utilizes Controlled Free Radical Polymerization (CFRP) technology to produce advanced dispersants locally.
Supply and Market Impact
The new production line increases global capacity, enhancing supply reliability and flexibility. It complements BASF's existing production site in Heerenveen, the Netherlands, to better meet the growing demand in the industrial coatings and automotive sectors.
Technological Advancements
The Nanjing plant's use of CFRP technology supports the green transformation of customers in Asia by offering lower PCF products. This technology is crucial for improving pigment dispersion, color performance, and system stability in coatings, inks, and composites.
Strategic Importance
Since its establishment in 2007, BASF's Nanjing plant has been a key specialty chemical production base for China and the Asia Pacific region. The latest expansion further strengthens BASF's market competitiveness and innovation capabilities.
