Polypropylene Carbonate Production Costs - Q2 2023
Polypropylene Carbonate Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Polypropylene Carbonate (a.k.a. PPC) is a thermoplastic polymer produced from the catalyzed copolymerization between carbon dioxide and propylene oxide. The copolymer chain is composed of alternative segments of carbon dioxide and propylene oxide, and small amounts of propylene oxide homopolymer. Some of its favorable properties include excellent transparency, good barrier against water and oxygen, printability and nontoxicity. This polymer presents important environmental appeals: greenhouse gas sequestration that minimizes global warming impacts, and some PPC composites are appointed as biodegradable materials.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Polypropylene Carbonate production costs. Each study describes an industrial plant, including main process units and site infrastructure, and presents an independent analysis of capital and operating costs. All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q2 2023).
Polypropylene Carbonate Production
This report provides the economics of Polypropylene Carbonate (PPC) production from propylene oxide and carbon dioxide in the United States using a process based on patents issued to SK Energy. In this process, the polymerization occurs in full-liquid phase and under pressure.
