Through a contract supply arrangement with Taiwan's Shiny Chemical Industrial Co., Lyondell Chemical will get 50,000-metric-ton-per-year of propylene glycol ether capacity in Taiwan by 2007. Under the agreement, Shiny will construct and operate the plant using Lyondell technology, and Lyondell will market the output.
