This study provides an economic analysis of Polychloroprene production starting from butadiene and chlorine, based on a plant located in the United States. In the first step, butadiene is chlorinated, generating dichlorobutenes, which are subjected to an isomerization to convert them to 3,4-dichloro-1-butene. It is then dehydrochlorinated, forming chloroprene. Finally, chloroprene is polymerized to the respective rubber.
This report presents the economics of Chloroprene Rubber (or Polychloroprene) production from chloroprene using a typical emulsion process. The economic analysis is based on a plant constructed in the United States.
