The two representative chemical companies of the 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Group Chemical Unit, 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Chemical and 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Fine Chemical, are looking to overcome external uncertainties and create profits by expanding specialty products.
스포츠 토토 베트맨 Chemical announced that it completed construction of the HEC (Hydroxy Ethyl Cellulose), which is the flagship specialty product of 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Fine Chemical, in December of last year at the Yeosu Chemical Yeosu development site and began commercial production.
Through the construction of this plant, 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Chemical is now equipped with a system to safely supply EO (Ethylene Oxide), which is a main raw ingredient of its HEC product, through pipes instead of the existing overland transportation thanks to the new plant.
EO (ethylene oxide) is a high-pressure gas and was supplied by the 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Chemical Yeosu Plant to the 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Fine Chemical Ulsan Plant via overland transportation, but with the completion of the Yeosu HEC plant, it has now become possible to procure raw materials and produce about 10,000 tons of HEC products. With this 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Fine Chemical has gained the momentum to expand its specialty material business of HEC.
The completion of the Yeosu HEC (Hydroxy Ethyl Cellulose) and its commercial production is a cooperative project between 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Chemical and 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Fine Chemical, and it is significant because 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Chemical can create profits through the sales of EO products and consigned production of HEC, and 스포츠 토토 베트맨 Fine Chemical gains a stable supply of raw materials, therefore making it possible to build a foundation for future growth.
스포츠 토토 베트맨 Group Chemical Unit President & CEO Lee Hun Ki stated, “We will continue strong growth by creating high-value businesses and building a sturdy growth momentum based on our specialty material capacities, which serves as the foundation for various industries.”
HEC is a cellulose derivative using EO (Ethylene oxide) and pulp, and it is used as an additive that offers viscosity and moisture in industrial sectors such as water-soluble paint, daily items, cosmetic products, etc.
