Acrylic Chain Development

Benefits of the project: a unique opportunity Compare favorably versus grass roots option • Reduced risks, lower costs and immediate access to competitive acrylic monomer sources • Planned acquisition will replace the capex previously scheduled in the 2017-2020 period Capture strong growth in acrylics in Asia (+7 to 8%/year) and support the development of: • Global and local customers on attractive end-markets (superabsorbents, paints and coatings, adhesives, water treatment, etc.) • Arkema's acrylic downstream businesses in the region: recent expansion of Sartomer in Guangzhou and start-ups of Coatex and Coating Resins in Changshu Well on track to achieve 2016 target of 30% of Arkema's sales in "emerging countries". Other ongoing projects in the region: • Construction of Thiochemicals platform in Malaysia • Expansion in Organic Peroxides in China and Middle East Ramp up of Hipro Polymers in China ■ Deliver solid contribution to Group's performance based on cautious assessment of acrylic acid supply/demand balance by Arkema ■ Maintain financial flexibility to continue to develop High Performance Materials segment ARKEMA INNOVATIVE CHEMISTRY
