Note: GEM classifies "Primary products" as one of the eight global building block chemicals we track. Many plants also produce downstream products (e.g., polyethylene, fertilizers), which appear under "Secondary products", and are not comprehensive. This classification reflects our research scope, not the relative economic importance of products.
