DETAILS

INVISTA Performance Technologies (IPT) and

Jiaxing Petrochemical Co., Ltd,

a subsidiary of Tongkun Group Co., Ltd,

announce the successful start-up of

Jiaxing Petrochemical’s second PTA Line,

utilising INVISTA’s latest P8 technology.

The first reaction train reached 100 percent design rate

in just 10 days from the first introduction of feedstock.

P8 is the very latest PTA technology platform from INVISTA,

representing industry-leading capital productivity,

variable cost and environmental footprint.

It is the latest demonstration of INVISTA’s 30-year track record

in successfully deploying new generations of PTA technology

that create competitive advantage for licensees.

The achievement represents yet another major milestone

for Jiaxing Petrochemical and INVISTA,

following the start-up of the first PTA line in 2012.

INVISTA’s latest PTA technology is available

as a license package from INVISTA Performance Technologies.

Mr. Xu,

expressed his trust in INVISTA’s PTA technology

and the capability of its engineers and scientists.

“We are pleased to see the successful start-up

 of our second PTA line

 and the operations are currently running very well.”

“We recognize that INVISTA’s P8 technology

 is a world class PTA technology. And the successful start-up

 is an outcome of close collaboration

 between the teams of both companies.

 We look forward to continuous cooperation in the future.” 

Mike Pickens,

president of INVISTA Performance Technologies

"We are honored that the first deployment of our latest P8 technology

 has been in partnership with Jiaxing Petrochemical

 and it is appropriate that they will be rewarded

 by the superior project returns made possible

 by the advanced P8 technology platform.”
