POLYGLYCOLS NOW MADE IN CANADA
Abstract
HAVING IMPORTANT USES AS SYNTHETIC lubricants, polyglycols are now being manufactured for the first time in Canada at a new fully‐integrated $25 million petrochemicals and polyethylene plant recently put on stream at Montreal East, Quebec, by the Carbide Chemicals Company, Division of Union Carbide Canada Limited, which is a subsidiary of Union Carbide Corporation, New York. At the new plant specialised equipment converts petroleum gas concentrates from three neighbouring refineries into ethylene oxide, ethylene glycol, other ethylene oxide derivatives and polyethylene.
