Melt Flow Index (190°C / 2.16 kg) 30 g/10 min ASTM D1238

Where ENGAGE™ 8401 fits

ENGAGE™ 8401 has a typical density of 0.885 g/cm³ and a melt flow rate of 30 g/10 min (190 °C/2.16 kg), which makes it a semi-rigid, high-flow grade in the Dow ENGAGE range. Grades in this window are typically used for:

  • Impact modification of PP where more stiffness has to be kept
  • Film modification and sealing layers
  • Compounds that need a balance of toughness and modulus
