Lanzhou Petrochemical Builds A High-end Synthetic Rubber Production Base With A 35,000-ton/year Special Nitrile Rubber Plant Put Into Operation

At 10:56 on May 20, Lanzhou Petrochemical Company built a new 35,000-ton/year special nitrile rubber plant to produce qualified products. The device was successfully completed and put into production, and the start-up was a success.

The 35,000-ton/year special nitrile rubber project is a key construction project of PetroChina and Gansu Province, and it is also a key project for Lanzhou Petrochemical to accelerate the adjustment of refining and chemical structure, transformation and upgrading, and quality and efficiency improvement. The domestic market share of nitrile butadiene plays an important role in building a high-end synthetic rubber production base.

Lanzhou Petrochemical is the "cradle" of the rubber industry in the new China. It produced the first piece of styrene-butadiene rubber in China on May 20, 1960, and the first piece of nitrile rubber in China in 1962, getting rid of the situation of rubber dependence on imports. Since then, Lanzhou Petrochemical has successively built and put into operation the first nitrile rubber plant and the first ethylene-propylene rubber plant in China, making positive contributions to the development of my country's rubber industry. Since the beginning of the 21st century, Lanzhou Petrochemical has vigorously carried out technological innovation, technical research and technological transformation in the rubber industry, comprehensively improved the technical level of rubber production, and has become an influential rubber production base in China.

The 35,000-ton/year special nitrile rubber plant adopts independent intellectual property technology, and the products produced cover more than 30 grades of general, special, low nitrile, medium nitrile, and high nitrile. The completion and commissioning of this device marks that Lanzhou Petrochemical has made substantial progress in building a high-end synthetic rubber production base.
