Wacker Dymatic Silicones, a joint venture between Wacker Chemie AG and Dymatic Chemicals Inc. (Shunde, China), has commissioned a new silicone emulsion plant. It is located at the company’s new headquarters in Shunde (Guangdong province) and has an annual production capacity of some 4,500 metric tons. The specialty chemical company plans to increase its supply of silicone emulsions to southern China’s textile, fiber and leather industries and to further enhance its market position. In May 2008, Wacker Dymatic Silicones already opened a plant for silicone emulsions and process auxiliaries in Zhangjiagang (Jiangsu province) to supply the Chinese textile, fiber and leather industries.
