BASF to raise prices for acrylic acid and acrylic esters and for its Ultraform
BASF is the world's largest manufacturer of acrylic acid and acrylic esters. The most significant resultant products are superabsorbents - the absorbent component found in hygienic articles such as, for example, diapers - as well as dispersions for the adhesives, construction and paper industries.
BASF increases the prices for its Ultraform
On July 1st this year, BASF will increase the prices for its Ultraform® (POM) in Europe by 200 Euro per metric ton. This measure is due to the still unsatisfactory margin situation.
BASF markets its range of polyoxymethylene-copolymers under the trade name Ultraform®. These engineering polymers are characterized by a combination of high rigidity, mechanical strength, good elastics properties and excellent sliding friction properties. Ultraform is used in vehicle construction, office, household and industrial applications like valves and gear wheels.
