The investment is designed to strengthen Tongkun's upstream and downstream business as well as increasing its risk resistance capacity, production scale and competitiveness.

Jiaxing Petrochemical's first PTA line, which came on stream in 2012, also licenses the process owned by Invista Performance Technologies (IPT).
