GUANGZHOU (ICIS)--China’s Cangzhou Dahua Chemical is expected to restart its 50,000 tonne/year toluene di-isocyanate (TDI) plant at Cangzhou in Hebei province in late July after shutting it this week, a company source said on Wednesday.

The company took the plant off line on 4 July for a scheduled turnaround, the source added.

The turnaround has had minimal impact on the supply situation as domestic demand is weak, market sources said.

Cangzhou Dahua Chemical is building a 70,000 tonne/year TDI plant at the same site and is planning to bring it on stream this year, the company source added.
