Lucene LC168

Lucene™ LC168 is an outstanding plastic impact modifier that provides unique properties for composite products.

Applications
  • General-purpose thermoplastic elastomers for polymer modification.
  • Automotive interior/exterior, shoe soles, wire and cable.
Property Test Method Unit Value
Density ASTM D1505 g/cm³ 0.862
Melt Flow Rate (190°C, 2.16 kg) ASTM D1238 g/10 min 1.2

Where Lucene LC168 fits

Lucene LC168 has a typical density of 0.862 g/cm³ and a melt flow rate of 1.2 g/10 min (190 °C/2.16 kg), which makes it a very soft, medium-flow grade in the LG Lucene range. Grades in this window are typically used for:

  • General-purpose PP and TPO impact modification
  • Injection-moulded soft-touch and flexible parts
  • Wire and cable compounds and footwear foams

Similar grades from other producers

These grades share the same nominal density (0.862 g/cm³) and melt flow (1.2 g/10 min): ENGAGE™ 7467. Comonomer, molecular-weight distribution and additive package still differ, so confirm with a short trial before you switch.
