KHUZESTAN, October 17 (NIPNA) - Khuzestan Petrochemical is expanding its specialty polymer production through closer cooperation with downstream industries and the development of customer-specific grades, its chief executive said.

Saleh-Ahmadi said the company maintains close ties with downstream manufacturers, including producers of sheets, switches and sockets, and measuring equipment, to identify industrial requirements and incorporate them into research, development and production processes.

The company’s product portfolio comprises around 15 grades of epoxy resin and polycarbonate alloys, some manufactured to customer specifications and others produced on a regular basis to meet market demand, he said.

Saleh-Ahmadi also said Khuzestan Petrochemical had obtained the necessary permits to produce a medical-grade polycarbonate used in specialized healthcare applications, including dialysis filters.

The development is intended to help meet the needs of specialized industries and reduce reliance on imported products in this segment, he said.

The company has also sought to prevent major supply disruptions through production planning and operational management, while maintaining a focus on specialty products.

Sustained domestic production of specialty polymers can help supply downstream industries, preserve jobs, reduce import dependence and strengthen the petrochemical value chain, Saleh-Ahmadi said.
