Name of the Project
Ethylidene norbornene (ENB) plant expansion.

INEOS Oxide.

Project Description
INEOS plans to expand its ENB plant, increasing capacity by 7 500 t to 35 500 t.

ENB is used primarily in the production of ethylene-propylene-diene rubber. Owing to its wear and weather resistance, this high-performance rubber is increasingly favoured for use in the automotive, white goods and construction industries. Its unique molecular structure means that ENB is also used in the high-value fragrance industry as a scent carrier.
