Eric Post, K-FLEX Global Sales Director, Emerald Performance Materials:
We would expect to see increases in petrochemical spend based on policy under the current U.S. administration with, for example, the executive order to progress the Keystone Pipeline. Demand for toughened structural adhesives, fusion-bonded epoxy coatings and other protective coatings used in pipeline applications will likely increase beyond what we would have already expected, as they play a critical role in ensuring hydrocarbons can be safely transported, minimizing the risk of failure due to environmental effects such as corrosion and impacts.
