Invista commences construction of its ADN facility in China

Invista has commenced the construction of its latest 300,000-ton adiponitrile (ADN) plant in China to satisfy the strong, local demand for the nylon 6,6 intermediate chemical. The plant, being built with an investment of about US$1 billion, will be completed by 2020 and production will begin in 2023.

Invista has been meeting customers and industry participants to develop a collaborative strategy focused on meeting China’s local needs for ADN, which is used to make nylon polymer, fibres and other specialty materials such as hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) for coatings.

Over the past five years, Invista has invested more than $600 million in China to support the nylon market, including a 215,000-tonne hexamethylenediamine (HMD) plant and a 150,000-tonne polymer plant, at the Shanghai Chemical Industry Park (SCIP). The company has also created multiple-generation improvements to the technology over the decades, recently setting production records with the deployment of its latest technology in the US.
