02 Origin of the project

Shanghai BASF Polyurethane Co.

The Shanghai United Isocyanate Project is composed of Shanghai Lianheng Isocyanate Co.

In production and operation, SBPC relies on other companies in Shanghai Chemical Industry Park to provide basic raw materials such as chlorine, crude MDI, and supporting utilities to form a circular economy industrial chain

Due to market demand, SBPC plans to carry out MDI refining and expansion in the chemical industry zone to engage in MDI products (including isocyanate polymethylene polyphenylene ester pMDI, diphenylmethane 4,4'-diisocyanate ME, (1 ,1'-methylene bis[isocyanatobenzene]MI), and build an MDI production capacity of 90,000t/a refining equipment
