Bayer MaterialScience has announced a capacity expansion of Desmodur N aliphatic coatings raw materials at its integrated site in Caojing, near Shanghai in China.

The plant has increased the capacity to 27,000 tpa to meet the growing demand in Asia, particularly China, in the automotive, general industrial and plastics market. The company has been producing Desmodur N coatings raw materials at Caojing since April 2003 at a facility that had an initial capacity of 11,500 tpa.
