LNP™ ELCRIN™ EXL1613TB

Sustainable Grade

LNP ELCRIN EXL1613TB polycarbonate (PC) siloxane copolymer resin is a transparent injection molding grade with component synthesized from Bio source. This resin offers extreme low temperature ductility in combination with medium flow characteristics and excellent processability with opportunities for shorter IM cycle times compared to standard PC. ELCRIN EXL1613TB resin is a general purpose product available in transparent and opaque colors and is an excellent candidate for a broad range of applications.
