MOSCOW (MRC) -- Celanese Corporation, a global technology and specialty materials company and a global leader in EVA emulsions, has announced it will increase the price of vinyl acetate-based emulsions sold in the Americas, as per the company's press release.
PVAc homopolymer, EVA and vinyl acrylic emulsions will increase by up to USD0.03/wet pound effective April 1, 2014, or as contracts allow.
This announcement is in addition to the price increase for the same vinyl-based emulsions which was announced on January 10, 2014 and effective on February 1, 2014.
This price increase affects all applications including, but not limited to, adhesives, paints and coatings, building and construction, nonwovens, glass fiber, carpet, paper and textiles.
