A research on possibility of using its own raw materials for the production of new types of products continues at the Central Plant Laboratory.

Last year, Sterlitamak Petrochemical Plant introduced non-crystallizing IMTHPA of grade 3 into its product assortment. The need for such a modified chemical reagent was expressed by Russian consumers, because isomethyl (IMTHPA) which is prone to crystallization during storage required additional costs for heating-up during processing.

Two years ago as part of an import substitution project the production of the most popular grade of aviation gasoline Avgas 100 ll was launched at the industrial site of the Sterlitamak Petrochemical Plant. This fuel is used on small aircraft and helicopters with PAD in general aviation, for example by private pilots, during flight training, in flying clubs, for agricultural work and for commercial flights. Its quality is in no way inferior to foreign analogues which is confirmed by specialists from the specially certified laboratory of the company"s research center and by the Dutch laboratory Intertec. This allowed the company to successfully compete in the Russian and international markets increasing its production capacity of aviation gasoline Avgas 100 ll from year to year expanding the range of clients.

Sintez-Kauchuk and Sterlitamak Petrochemical Plant joint-stock companies are the largest companies in the Urals and Western Siberia in terms of product sales in 2017, according to the Analytical Center “Expert”.

An audit of compliance with the requirements of international standards for feed safety FAMI-QS and GMP+ at the petrochemical site of the joint stock company Sterlitamak Petrochemical Plant was conducted by Kaesler Nutrition (Saxony) which is an expert in the field of feed additives production.
