Lucofin 1400PN is a polar copolymer with low crystallinity consisting of thylene and n-butyl acrylate.

Due to its chemical structure Lucofin 1400PN is softer and more flexible than ethylene homopolymers with comparable density. Lucofin 1400PN is supplied as non-colored granules.

Product properties
Lucofin 1400PN is used as component in multilayer film applications or as polymer modifier to improve low temperature crack resistance, stress crack resistance ESCR1, weldability, and processability.

Product advantages

• easy processing on standard processing equipment

• excellent wetting properties of filler with high specific surface like carbon black

• flexibility

• high impact strength at low temperatures (-40°C)

• thermal stability (no corrosive by-products)

• good mechanical properties

• high end use temperature

• good compatibility with other polymers and high filler acceptance

• environmentally friendly

Applications
Lucofin 1400PN is used primarily for injection molding applications but is also suited for extrusion purposes. It can be used as carrier resin for high loaded pigment and carbon black masterbatches in order to improve the melt index in combination with excellent dispersion and can be used in extrusion coating in order to imporve hot tack properties of the final product.

Lucofin 1400PN can be used in injection molding for thin wall packaging.
