With a single-digit million-euro investment, BASF enhanced the flexibility of its water-soluble polyacrylate production plant at the company’s Ludwigshafen site, Germany, and slightly expanded capacity.

The upgraded plant is now operational, enabling customers in the household and commercial cleaning products, as well as for chemical and formulator industries to benefit from the expanded capacity in specialty chemicals.

“High-performance water-soluble polyacrylates and copolymers are an indispensable component of our customers’ formulations. With this investment and our applications expertise, we are supporting our European customers in their efforts to boost their market growth with differentiated products,” said Soeren Hildebrandt, senior VP, Home Care, I&I and Industrial Formulators Europe at BASF.

Water-soluble polyacrylates and copolymers are marketed by the Care Chemicals operating division under the Sokalan brand and have numerous applications. Sokalan PA and Sokalan CP grades are used in the household and commercial cleaning products industry for water softening and in various technical processes.
