✦ Synopsis

some propylene are carried out at the site. Central to Tosoh's initiative are zirconia powder and high-silica zeolites, for which new factories at Yokkaichi were completed in Mar 2009 to supplement production at the company's Nanyo complex. Commercial-scale production of zirconia is expected to start soon. Tosoh is also pushing ahead with development of novel products with functions not usually related to petrochemical products.
