Lucofin® 1492

Product description
Lucofin® 1492 is a chemically modified polyethylene, i.e. EBA grafted with maleic anhydride (MA).

Properties
Lucofin® 1492 can be used pure or as a component in mixtures applications where improved polarity is required.

Product advantages

• easy processing on standard processing equipment

• polarity and adhesion to various materials

• good compatibility and filler acceptance

• good mechanical properties

• environmentally sound

Applications
Due to the maleic anhydride content this grade offers excellent adhesion to polar materials and can be used possibly in combination with Lucofin 1400HN or Lucofin 1400MN to

• provide high filler loading, such as ATH (Aluminium tri hydrate) and MDH (Magnesium di hydrate) in HFFR compounds

• flexibilize and impact modfiy otherwise brittle plastics (PA, PA/ABS, PBT, PET), including srap/recycled material

• modify melt viscosity and therefore improve processability for PA

• compatibilize dissimilar polymer compounds, such as PA/PE and PE/PS

• improve bonding and strength in

• wood-plastic composite WPC, such as PE, PP /wood flour

• polymer / fiber (glass fiber, natural fiber, long fiber, short fiber) compounds such as PP / long glass fiber
