LONDON (CNI)--StoHaas Monomer has successfully restarted one of its acrylic acid lines at its Marl plant in Germany, a spokesman for the German producer confirmed on Tuesday.

One of the three lines at the plant was brought back onstream on Friday and is now running at normal rates, he said. The line was closed last month due to technical difficulties. Capacity details were not divulged.

The spokesman added that customer deliveries had been slightly affected but there were no major shortages.

StoHaas Monomer is a joint venture between Degussa subsidiary Stockhausen and US firm Rohm & Haas.
