SK Geo Centric新建EAA全球第四工厂,全力广大亚洲唯一EAA生产基地
2023.03.24
■ SK Geo Centric于22日在江苏连云港市与中国卫星化学股份有限公司新建EAA生产工厂的协议,2028年完工为目标 ■ 继西班牙、美国工厂后,率先拓展亚洲地区市场,进军全球高附加值材料市场 ■ SK Geo Centric罗庚秀社长表示 :“抢先应对全球需求,将强化产品投资组合”   SK Geo Centric将凭借高附加值化学材料——乙烯丙烯酸共聚物(Ethylene Acrylic Acid,下称EAA)进军全球市场。目前,SK Geo Centric在美国和西班牙均有运营EAA工厂,并计划通过在中国新建工厂,加快建造亚洲唯一EAA生产基地的步伐。   Geo Centric表示其于3月22日在中国江苏省连云港市与中国卫星化学股份有限公司签署了新建EAA工厂的谅解备忘录(MOU)。SK Geo Centric罗庚秀社长、SK Geo Centric中国业务总经理張南薰、SK Geo Centric中国投资管理室蔡连春室长、卫星化学股份有限董事长杨卫东、总经理朱晓东等人共同出席了签约仪式。   去年8月, SK Geo Centric为设立EAA全球第三工厂,与卫星化学股份有限公司签署了合作法人设立合同及投资协议,正在推进第四工厂的新建项目。目前为止,第三工厂正在进入EPC(设计、采购、施工)阶段,计划在2025年竣工。第四工厂投资约4000亿韩元,明年下半年开工,2028年每年生产约5万吨规模的商业生产为目标。   第四工厂竣工时,SK Geo Centric的EAA全球生产能力将达到年均14万吨,确保率先攻占亚洲地区市场的生产能力。SK Geo Centric借助2017年收购美国陶氏化学的EAA业务,正在启动美国德克萨斯州、西班牙塔拉戈纳的生产工厂。   EAA是一种只有全球3、4家化学企业才能生产的高功能粘合树脂,在接合金属和塑料、纸和塑料等异种物质时能够发挥出色的性能。另外,SK Geo Centric公司是唯一一家能够生产具有超高黏贴性的高品质产品——“High Acid EAA”的商业生产企业。   同时,基于其优秀的功能,正在从灭菌包装、肉类真空包装到高尔夫球、强化玻璃等各种产业中扩大其利用程度。特别是,如果可以替代原本用于纸涂层的塑料材料,将大大减少塑料的使用量,今后有望创造更多的需求。   SK Geo Centric总裁罗庚秀社长表示:“通过新增EAA工厂建设协议,有望率先应对全球需求”,“我们将通过迅速的商业启动,确保高附加值化学材料生产的全球竞争力,并积极努力扩大产品投资组合。”   [参考资料 ①] SKGC ...
