HDPE Pesticide Containers

Major US petrochemical company (JV between Chevron and Phillips 66); produces ethyl mercaptan at Borger, TX and Tessenderlo, Belgium (Tessenderlo expanded 65% in 2017). Ethyl mercaptan is part of a broader organosulfur chemicals portfolio including methyl mercaptan, DMDS (dimethyl disulfide), and specialty sulfur chemicals. Applications: gas odorization, polymer modifiers, agricultural chemicals, pharmaceuticals, water purification, and lubricant additives. Tessenderlo capacity expansion noted by Hydrocarbon Processing (2017). Also the world's leading polyethylene producer (Cedar Bayou, TX cracker complex).

ExxonMobil Chemical Company (Spring, Texas; NYSE: XOM; chemical segment ~$12B revenue) produces Vistalon EPDM at its Baton Rouge, Louisiana and Baytown, Texas complexes — two of the world's largest integrated petrochemical sites. Vistalon EPDM holds an estimated 12-15% global market share. ExxonMobil's ethylene and propylene feedstock integration at its Gulf Coast facilities provides a cost structure advantage for EPDM production. Vistalon is used in automotive seals, roofing membranes, wire insulation, and plumbing and water system gaskets. ExxonMobil also produces Butyl rubber (Butyl IIR) and other specialty elastomers from the same Gulf Coast facilities — the same sites producing vehicle fuel also produce the rubber seals used in plumbing systems.
