巴西國家化學(xué)公司9月創(chuàng)巴西塑料銷售紀(jì)錄

據(jù)ICIS網(wǎng)站10月7日休斯頓報道 聚烯烴生產(chǎn)商巴西國家化學(xué)公司周三表示，今年9月巴西國家化學(xué)公司向巴西市場售出超過36.5萬噸塑料，打破了該公司8月份創(chuàng)下的35.5萬噸的銷售紀(jì)錄。

巴西國家化學(xué)公司表示，公司的可再生聚乙烯（綠色聚乙烯）也達(dá)到了一個新的高點(diǎn)。

在美國，聚丙烯（PP）的需求仍在上升，9月份售出逾14萬噸。

銷量的增加標(biāo)志著塑料需求從4月和5月受冠狀病毒影響的美國的急劇下降中復(fù)蘇。由于經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)蘇，巴西國家化學(xué)公司使其巴西工廠的開工率恢復(fù)正常。在疫情最嚴(yán)重期間，開工率下降至65%。

在美國，該公司的聚丙烯工廠也恢復(fù)了正常運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)率。

在巴西國家化學(xué)公司的產(chǎn)品中，9月份售出18.8萬噸聚乙烯，高于8月份的17.3萬噸。

該數(shù)字指的是巴西的國內(nèi)銷售額。

對于綠色聚乙烯，9月銷量超過1.7萬噸，這是當(dāng)月首次達(dá)到如此高的水平。

巴西國家化學(xué)公司的綠色聚乙烯由可再生乙烯制成，乙烯則通過乙醇脫水生產(chǎn)。乙醇由糖發(fā)酵而成。

Braskem sets plastic sales record for Brazil in September

Braskem sold more than 365,000 tonnes of plastic into the Brazilian market in September, breaking the previous sales record of 355,000 tonnes that the company set in August, the polyolefins producer said on Wednesday.

The company's renewable polyethylene (PE), marketed as Green PE, also reached a new high, Braskem said.

In the US, demand for polypropylene (PP) remains elevated, with more than 140,000 tonnes sold in September.

The increased sales mark a recovery from the sharp declines in plastic demand that hit the country in April and May, the result of the coronavirus. As a result of that recovery, Braskem brought the operating rates at its Brazilian plants back to normal. During the worst of the pandemic, they fell to 65%.

In the US, the company's PP plants also returned to normal operating rates.

Among Braskem's products, the company sold 188,000 tonnes of PE in September, up from 173,000 tonnes in August.

The figure refers to domestic sales in Brazil.

For Green PE, September sales exceeded 17,000 tonnes, the first time they reached such a high level during the month.

Braskem's Green PE is made from renewable ethylene, which is produced by dehydrating ethanol. The ethanol is made by fermenting sugar.
