Recently, with the No. 3 polypropylene production line of Shanghai Petrochemical Plastics Department joined the production queue of meltblown cloth special material base material, The total amount of melt-blown cloth base material in May will increase by 20% on the basis of more than 5,000 tons in April, contributing to the "hundred-day attack and create effect" action and the demand for anti-epidemic materials.

According to reports, the melt-blown cloth special material base material is divided into granular and powdered, is a polypropylene product. At present, Shanghai Petrochemical has a total of 3 polypropylene production lines. In April, the company's No. 1 polypropylene production line produced more than 5,000 tons of granular and powdery base material, a record high.

In order to ensure the downstream enterprises, the company's No. 3 polypropylene production line previously produced anti-impact copolymerization products, affected by the market, some products showed a decline in stage demand, and the demand for special materials for melt-blown cloth substrate is rising. Therefore, the company decided to turn the production capacity of part of the No. 3 polypropylene production line into a special material base for melt-blown cloth in early May. Unlike the No. 1 and No. 2 polypropylene production lines, which mainly produce granule-based base material, the No. 3 production line produces the base material mainly powder. Powder for the downstream melt-blown cloth special material production enterprises, can reduce an extrusion process, the use of more convenient.

According to statistics, since the outbreak of the epidemic, the company has urgently transferred production and increased production of melt-blown cloth special material base material, from January to the end of April, a total of more than 8000 tons of melt-blown cloth special material base material. In May, the company is expected to produce more than 6,200 tons of base material, to further ensure the stable supply of melt-blown base material.
