Akli expands polyetheramine and optical materials projects

On October 17, Akli announced that the company intends to sign an agreement with the Administrative Committee of Jianghan Salt Chemical Industrial Park of Qianjiang High-tech Industrial Development Zone to invest in the construction of 20,000 tons/year of polyetheramine, 30,000 tons/year of optical materials (cyclic olefin monomers and polymers), 1,000 tons/year of high-purity silica sol, 20 tons/year of special high-heat resistant resin, 5,000 tons/year of modified epoxy resin and 25,000 tons/year of polyether projects
.

In May last year, Akoli had planned to sign the above project in the Taixing Economic Development Zone, with an estimated investment scale of 1.
6 billion yuan
.
In September this year, Akoli announced that due to the epidemic, too concentrated production bases, downstream customer adjustments and other factors, the company decided to cancel the investment agreement
of Taixing Economic Development Zone.
Compared with the previous signing, the investment scale between Akori and Qianjiang City has been reduced to 1.
05 billion yuan; In addition, Akli has expanded the investment scale of high-purity silica sol projects from 300 tons / year to 1000 tons / year
.

According to the 2021 annual report, Akoli has two aliphatic amine projects with a total design capacity of 20,000 tons/year, and optical materials projects with a design capacity of 5,000 tons/year
.
This means that the production capacity of Akli's polyetheramine project is expected to double, and the capacity scale of the optical material project will be expanded by 6 times
.
