| Density | 0.877 g/cm³ | ASTM D792 |
| Melt Flow Index (190°C / 2.16 kg) | 3.0 g/10 min | ASTM D1238 |
Where ENGAGE™ 8457 DA fits
ENGAGE™ 8457 DA has a typical density of 0.877 g/cm³ and a melt flow rate of 3 g/10 min (190 °C/2.16 kg), which makes it a semi-rigid, medium-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
