Announcement on the Discontinuance of mma 놀이터 토토 사이트 Production by the ACH Process and Acrylonitrile-Related Production at the Hiroshima Plant, and on Subsequent Withdrawal from Some Businesses

February 27, 2024

The Mitsubishi Chemical Group (MCG Group) hereby announces that it has decided to discontinue MMA monomer 놀이터 토토 사이트 by the ACH process as well as the 놀이터 토토 사이트 of acrylonitrile and acrylonitrile derivatives at the Mitsubishi Chem, Hiroshima Prefecture) as described below. Also, following the discontinuance of 놀이터 토토 사이트, the MCG Group will withdraw from the chelating agent and acetonitrile businesses.

  1. Reason f놀이터 토토 사이트 discontinuance of production
As a leading company in the MMA business, the MCG Group produces MMA monomers by three different methods (ACH process, C4 process, and Alpha technology) at its MMA monomer production bases around the w놀이터 토토 사이트ld, while enhancing the supply chain in response to the demand-supply situation and trends with regard to materials used f놀이터 토토 사이트 production.

F놀이터 토토 사이트 the acrylonitrile business, the MCG Group has two production bases in Japan to supply acrylonitrile and acrylonitrile derivatives, and also supplies a byproduct from the acrylonitrile production process as a material f놀이터 토토 사이트 MMA production by the ACH process.

In 놀이터 토토 사이트der to enhance the Group’s competitiveness in the MMA and acrylonitrile businesses and optimize the supply system, the Group has decided to discontinue MMA monomer production by the ACH process as well as the production of acrylonitrile and acrylonitrile derivatives at the Hiroshima Plant.

However, the MCG Group will continue to produce MMA monomers produced by the C4 process at the Hiroshima Plant, along with continued 놀이터 토토 사이트 of acrylonitrile and sodium glycinate at the Okayama Plant (Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture) and acrylamide at the Kanto Plant (Tsurumi) (Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture).
