Technology Licensing

Technologies
Polymers: Polypropylene

After more than 15 years of refinement, this innovative technology has demonstrated some of the highest single line production capacities in the industry, up to 400 kta. Licensees of ExxonMobil Chemical's polypropylene process technology will achieve outstanding economies of scale in new plant designs and will benefit from working with a world leader in technology development and licensing.


A track record of success
ExxonMobil Chemical successfully operates this technology in four plants around the world, with individual line sizes ranging in capacity from 200 kta to nearly 400 kta. In fact, no other licensor has the operational experience that we do with plants of this scale. Recent plant start-ups have quickly achieved and exceeded design targets.


Proven economies of scale
Investment cost of a single 400 kta line based on our process is up to 30% less than two smaller lines of equivalent total capacity. A single large line also requires a smaller minimum workforce and less equipment to maintain.


Safe, reliable and cost-effective operation
Equipment design and facilities layouts are optimized for lower investment and maintenance costs and simpler operation, with control systems and procedures to ensure product quality and consistency and proven, designed-in, safety features.


Market leading products
Licensees can access the full range of Homopolymer, Random Copolymer and Impact Copolymer products with market leading product designs in key applications such as OPP Film, Nonwovens and Injection Molding. 


Catalyst flexibility
Unlike other licensors, ExxonMobil does not make or sell catalysts for polypropylene production, or require licensees to use a specific catalyst. Flexibility of the licensee to choose catalysts and suppliers in combination with ExxonMobil Chemical proprietary electron donor technology ensures a cost effective solution optimized for the desired product slate.


The ExxonMobil Polypropylene process offers a unique combination of benefits and value, plus the outstanding support and experience of a global leader in technology licensing and polypropylene manufacturing.
