Wacker Polymers has said it is to raise its prices in Europe for Vinnapas and Vinnol dispersions. Effective July 1, 2010, or as customer contracts allow prices for these dispersions will be increased by up to €80/t. This measure has been necessitated by the rise in raw material costs. Wacker said that the price adjustments will enable it to continue providing technical service and to boost the development of innovative product and process technologies for the benefit of customers. The company said that Vinnapas and Vinnol dispersions are applied in a broad variety of industries.
