Mitsui Chemicals and Mitsui Chemicals will form a joint venture with Brunei state-owned enterprises to establish ammonia manufacturing and sales companies. The two Japanese companies will invest approximately US$3 billion. After the completion, the joint venture will become Asia’s largest ammonia manufacturer.
Ammonia is an important raw material for fertilizers. The joint venture will use Brunei natural gas as a raw material for production and sell the products to Southeast Asia. Mitsui & Mitsui Chemicals is working with Brunei on effective utilization of natural gas to revitalize new industries and will meet Asian demand for agricultural-related products.
The joint venture will start construction in 2012 and plans to begin production in mid-2015.
According to the current plan, Mitsui & Mitsui Chemicals will obtain a majority stake and Brunei State Oil Company will acquire a maximum of 49%. By 2015, the plant's production capacity will reach 850,000 tons of ammonia. Mitsui Chemicals is mainly responsible for providing manufacturing technology, and Mitsui & Co., Ltd. is responsible for developing customer groups.
Weathering steel, i.e. atmospheric corrosion-resistant steel(Corten Steel), is a series of low-alloy steel between ordinary steel and stainless steel. Weathering steel is made of ordinary carbon steel with a small amount of corrosion-resistant elements such as copper and nickel. It has the characteristics of toughness, plasticity, forming, welding and cutting, abrasion, high temperature and fatigue resistance of high-quality steel. The weathering resistance is 2-8 times of ordinary carbon steel and the coating performance is 1.5-10 times of ordinary carbon steel. At the same time, it has the characteristics of rust resistance, corrosion resistance, life extension, thinning and consumption reduction, labor saving and energy saving. Weathering steel is mainly used in railway, vehicle, bridge, tower, photovoltaic, high-speed engineering and other steel structures exposed to the atmosphere for a long time. It is used to manufacture containers, railway vehicles, oil derricks, seaport buildings, oil production platforms and containers containing hydrogen sulfide corrosive medium in chemical and petroleum equipme.
Weathering Steel/ Corton Steel is refers to the low alloy structural steel with corrosion protection layer, which can be used to manufacture steel structures such as vehicles, Bridges, towers and containers.
Compared with ordinary carbon steel, weathering steel has better corrosion resistance in atmosphere.
Compared with stainless steel, weathering steel only trace alloy elements, so the price is relatively low.
Weathering steel is mainly used in railway, vehicle, bridge, tower, photovoltaic, high-speed engineering and other long-term exposure to the atmosphere of steel structure, manufacturing containers, railway vehicles, oil derricks, harbor buildings, oil production platforms and containers containing hydrogen sulfide corrosive medium in chemical and petroleum equipment.
