Polyolefin elastomers (POE) are elastomers based on a polyethylene backbone. POEs offer low density and high flexibility and are commonly used to impact modify PE and PP compounds or to make PE and PP molded products more flexible. They can be used in injection molding, extrusion, film and compounding.
Lucene™ Polyolefin Elastomers are copolymers of ethylene and butene (EBR) or octene (EOR) produced by a metallocene catalyst. They bridge the gap between traditional elastomers and thermoplastics. They can be used for various applications including polymer modification and film manufacturing.
