Ethylene from the plant is used to make a wide range of household, commercial and industrial products. It can be converted into polyethylene that is used to make plastic bags and bottles, packaging films, housewares and toys. It also can be used to make other derivative chemicals that go into the making of synthetic lubricants, antifreeze, pain, polyester fibers and resins, polystyrene packaging, electrical components, polishes, medical products, PVC pipes, upholstery, luggage and more.
The Beaumont aromatics facility produces toluene and benzene. A grassroots cyclohexane plant started up in 1999. This upgrades part of the Beaumont complex's existing benzene and hydrogen supply to cyclohexane, an intermediate chemical used primarily to make nylon fibers and resin.
In 1997, we completed a project at Beaumont to produce paraxylene, a basic raw material for polyester fibers and resins used in textiles and plastics manufacturing. ExxonMobil's proprietary MTPX catalyst technology provides a significant cost advantage versus competing technologies.
Products:
- Olefins: Ethylene, Propylene
