CHINA: Cabot completes laboratory in Shanghai for plastics applications development

Cabot has completed a new plastics applications development laboratory in Shanghai, China, to better serve and collaborate with customers in the Chinese and Asia Pacific plastics industry.

The new laboratory will network with Cabot’s existing applications laboratories in Europe and the USA to ensure the latest technologies and products for both specialty carbon black and specialty black masterbatch and compounds are implemented in the region.

Cabot noted that polymer demand in Asia is expected to increase to 126 million t in 2016, compared to 98 million t in 2011, according to Applied Marketing Information Ltd. data. This is more than double the growth rate projected for Europe and North America.
