LNP™ ELCRIN™ FXE1414G

Sustainable Grade

LNP ELCRIN FXE1414G polycarbonate (PC) siloxane copolymer resin, that incorporates renewable feedstock through ISCC+ mass-balance certification, is a special effects fluorescent, medium flow opaque injection molding (IM) grade. This resin offers extreme low temperature (-40 C) ductility in combination with excellent processability and release with opportunities for shorter IM cycle times compared to standard PC.
