Shanghai Cabot Co, which is owned 70% by Cabot Corp (of the US) and 30% by Shanghai Coking Chemical Co, completed a 50,000 tonnes/y expansion at its Shanghai carbon black last year. This brought the plant's total capacity to 130,000 tonnes/y. (See also 'Focus on Pigments ', Mar 2004, 3).

The plant's initial capacity will be 50,000 tonnes/y, with provision for easy expansion, possibly towards the end of 2006.
