Dow to Expand Capacity for Divinylbenzene (DVB)
"This investment brings two critical capabilities that will enable Dow to grow with our customers," said Marvin Bourelle, commercial director for Specialty Polymers at Dow. "We will not only increase capacity, but also will implement process improvements that will strengthen product reliability, consistency and quality to better meet customer needs."
Bourelle noted that the market for DVB has become increasingly tight and that Dow expects to see continued strong global demand ahead as a result of growth in end-use applications such as ion exchange resins, adhesives, specialty plastics, and elastomers.
