POE Plastic Resin Overview - LG Chem POE LC670

Have you noticed that extreme weather and product lightweighting are quietly changing the landscape of the plastic industry?

From the cracking of car exterior parts in winter to frequent complaints about footwear products due to insufficient toughness, the market demand for flexible and highly impact-resistant plastics is growing at an unprecedented rate.

Meanwhile, on social media platforms, topics such as "# Extreme Cold Challenge", "# Scene of Shoe Sole Cracking and Rollover", and "#Durability Evaluation of Automotive Trim" have frequently made it to the top of the trending list. The feedback from consumers' experiences has directly pushed upstream materials to innovate.

Facing this trend, LG Chem's POE LC670 plastic resin emerged and became a popular choice for many brands to solve the pain points of "plastic aging, brittleness and cracking, and unstable performance".

01 | Industry Pain Point: Limitations of old materials, unable to meet new demands

Traditional TPO and PP modified materials:

⚠ The toughness drops sharply at low temperatures, and it is prone to fracture and damage.

⚠ Poor softness and hand feel affect the user experience;

⚠ It is difficult to balance lightweight and high strength, and product upgrades are limited.

Especially in the field of new energy vehicles, sports shoes and consumer goods, the material ‘can't keep up’ with the design, which has become an important factor hindering brand innovation.

02 | POE LC670: A flexible solution specifically designed to solve difficult problems

POE LC670, based on the ethylene-octene copolymer monomer technology, takes into account toughness, softness and impact resistance.

✔ 900% ultra-high elongation rate, easily handling complex structural designs;

✔ Glass transition temperature of -55℃, remaining flexible and reliable even in extremely cold environments;

✔ 38KN/m tear strength, enhancing durability and service life;

✔ Lightweight formula (specific gravity 0.870g /cm³) helps to reduce the weight and upgrade the product.

✔ Ethylene-octene copolymerization technology enhances the overall toughness and soft hand feel of modified PP and TPO.

✔ Excellent processing performance, suitable for multiple scenarios such as injection molding, composite molding, and shoe materials.

For automotive exterior trims, interiors, shoe soles and modified plastics, POE LC670 is becoming the preferred material that combines green and low-carbon, functional enhancement and comfortable experience.

03 | Application Value: Empowering Innovation in the automotive and Consumer goods sectors

As the automotive industry is moving towards lightweight and safety upgrades, POE plastic resins are showing strong application potential in the following areas:

  ・Automotive exterior and interior parts: such as bumpers, door panels, and dashboard panels, enhance the vehicle's impact resistance and aesthetic appeal, meeting higher safety standards.

  ・Footwear and consumer goods shells: With high softness and toughness, they provide a comfortable foot feel and structural protection, and are widely used in products such as sports shoes and suitcases.

  ・Plastic modification and composite materials: As a toughening agent for plastic substrates such as PP and TPO, it improves the overall performance of products and expands the design freedom of products.
