The things that chemical plants produce are: polymers, fertilizers, medicines, paints, and man-made fibers.
1. Polymers
Polymers are macromolecular compounds that are usually the main component of plastics or fibers. Chemical plants use a variety of chemicals to make polymers, such as polyolefins, polyamides, polyesters, polyimides, and polycarbonates. These materials are used in a wide variety of industries, such as construction, automotive, furniture and household goods manufacturing.
2. Fertilizers
Fertilizers are chemical substances that improve the environment in which crops are grown, add plant nutrients and increase crop yields. Chemical plants typically produce chemical fertilizers, such as nitrogen, phosphate and potash, which are essential elements for plant growth. The process of making chemical fertilizers requires the use of substances that have strong chemical reactions, so conditions are very strict.
3, drugs
Chemical plants are also important places for the production of pharmaceuticals. The manufacturing process of all kinds of drugs require strict production environment, technology and manufacturing conditions. The base materials for many pharmaceuticals are refined from chemical raw materials.
4, paint
Paint is also one of the production of chemical plants. Paint includes a variety of pigments, additives and solvents, is a surface treatment substances, can protect the surface of the object, but also beautify the appearance of a variety of paints have a wide range of uses, in home decoration, automotive and industrial equipment, and so on.
5, man-made fibers
Man-made fibers are also a chemical plant to produce one of the main products. These fibers are fibers made of plastic, and newly developed man-made fibers can mimic the qualities of natural fibers. Examples include nylon, polypropylene and polyurethane. Man-made fibers are not only used in the manufacture of textiles, clothing and home furnishings, but also in a wide range of applications in construction, aerospace, automotive and medical fields.
