Air Liquide announced the signature of a long term agreement with RusVinyl - a joint venture between a Russian leading chemical company Sibur and the Belgian polyvinyl chloride (PVC) major Solvin (75% Solvay - 25% BASF). Air Liquide will supply oxygen, as well as nitrogen and compressed dry air to RusVinyl’s new world-scale PVC plant being built in Kstovo, in the region of Nizhny Novgorod.
