Plastics Technology, February, 2008

Dow Engineering Plastics, Midland, Mich., halted sales of ABS and SAN in the Americas to non-automotive markets on Feb. 1. All ABS will be made at the Midland mass-process plant. Dow will convert two other ABS plants in Connecticut and Ohio, to polystyrene and move them into the planned PS joint venture with Chevron Phillips Chemical Co.

That venture will be called Americas Styrenics and will be based in Houston. It is expected to start up in this quarter.
