Stirling said that the brutal competition from the Middle East and Asia will eliminate a large number of crackers in the European region. Stirling said: “Compared with the cost of ethylene crackers in other parts of the world, these devices will be economically uncompetitive and closure is the most reasonable choice. However, the specific situation needs to be analyzed specifically because shut down devices will also face many obstacle."
Stirling said that in order to survive and develop, the European chemical industry needs to play its own advantages, rather than "hard", because the Middle East and China's raw materials and markets have unparalleled advantages. The advantage of European chemical industry lies in its advanced technology and expert team. Its leading position in product and technology innovation is beyond the reach of the Middle Eastern and Asian chemical industry. In addition, the European chemical industry should use its long-standing and close relationship with its customers to provide innovative products and solutions to its customers so as to seize market opportunities.
KPMG said that looking ahead, chemical manufacturers in the Middle East and Asia will acquire more European chemical companies to acquire advanced technologies. In the medium and long term, this is a potential threat to the European chemical industry. Since the acquisition is completed, new owners may close European installations and their focus is on acquiring technology.
In the past few years, Saudi Basic Industries acquired the common chemicals business of Dutch DSM. Abu Dhabi IPIC acquired Nova Chemicals of Canada and shares in Borealis and OMV. In November 2009, IPIC also said it was acquiring a European company, and Bayer MaterialScience was also within its scope of acquisition. India Prudential Industries is currently bidding for the Dutch company Lyondell Basell. On February 2nd, Mexican Fluorine Chemicals, a subsidiary of Mexichem, spent US$350 million to acquire the entire Ineos Fluorochemicals business in North America, Europe and Asia.
KPMG pointed out in the report: "We will see more joint ventures between the Middle East and China, because they are closer geographically, while the Middle East has cheap raw materials, and China has a huge market."
Sodium Tripolyphosphate, Na5P3O10, Molecular weight 367.86, white powder; Melting point 622 °C. free soluble in water, aqueous solution appears ACID. It has got salient chelating capacity to metal ions of Ca and Mg etc. and can soften hard water to make suspension into solution, alkalinity, without causticity. It is an inorganic compound with formula Na5P3O10, is the sodium salt of the polyphosphate penta-anion, which is the conjugate base of triphosphoric acid.Sodium tripolyphosphate is produced by heating stoichiometric mixture of disodium phosphate, Na2HPO4, and monosodium phosphate, NaH2PO4, under carefully controlled conditions.
It has different bulk density, i.e. low density 0.35-0.6g/cm 3 , medium density 0.6-0.8g/cm3 and high density 0.8-1.0g/cm3. This product has two crystalline forms, namely phase I (high temperature phase) and phase II (low temperature phase). The chemical properties of the two phases are the same, and the difference between them lies in the thermostability, hygroscopicity, solubility and hydration heat when dissolving.
It can be used as one of the main auxiliaries for synthetic Detergent, synergist for soap; water softener, tanning agent for leather making, auxiliary for dyeing; As an effective dispersion agent for suspensions of coatings, kaolin, magnesium oxide, calcium carbonate and drilling mud etc.
As an oil contamination resistance agent in paper production; As in foodstuff industry it is used as quality improver in the process of canned food, fruit juice drinks, foodstuffs from milk or soybeans. It may tender the meat in canned ham and soften the skin of horse bean in canned horse bean. It may also serves as a softener or densifier in foodstuff industry.
