Recently, Guangzhou Petrochemical delivered its first‑batch metallocene polypropylene (mPP) products to a domestic semiconductor wafer manufacturer, marking a new breakthrough in the company’s development in the high‑end polyolefin materials market.
Metallocene polypropylene features high transparency, outstanding toughness, low extractables and high cleanliness. It meets semiconductor industry requirements for anti‑static performance, contamination prevention, mechanical damage resistance and high dimensional accuracy.
Since the start of this year, Guangzhou Petrochemical has vigorously advanced the R&D and pilot production of metallocene polyolefins. Its R&D team conducted in‑depth market research to accurately identify customer demands. Focusing on unit adaptability and process stability, the team carried out technical research and continuously optimized key parameters. Two new grades of metallocene polypropylene were successfully produced in mid‑March. Performance testing and trial applications by downstream customers show that key performance indicators of the products match or even outperform imported counterparts, and the products have obtained official certification.
