LNP™ ELCRIN™ EXL1414B

Sustainable Grade

ELCRIN EXL1414B is based on Polycarbonate (PC) siloxane copolymer and is a medium flow opaque injection molding (IM) grade with major component synthesized from Bio source. This resin offers extreme low temperature (-40°C) ductility in combination with excellent processability and mold release, providing opportunities for shorter IM cycle times compared with standard PC. ELCRIN EXL1414B resin is available in a wide range of opaque colors and is targeted for a variety of applications.
