POE Resin Overview - Dow POE 7467

As plastic modification pays more and more attention to low specific gravity, low temperature toughness and environmental adaptability, Dow Chemical POE 7467 is gradually becoming a key toughening solution in composite material design. As a polyolefin elastomer (POE resin) based on a four-carbon butene copolymer structure, POE 7467 resin is widely used in many industries due to its excellent softness, stability and processing compatibility. It is especially suitable for the development of modified plastics, injection molded products and food contact products.

01 | POE Resin gene analysis: structural logic of softness

The molecular structure of POE 7467 resin introduces butene as a copolymer monomer, which enables the material molecular chain to obtain greater freedom of movement while maintaining the compatibility of the polyolefin system. This structure brings the following performance highlights:

  ・High elongation: The elongation at break is as high as 600%, with excellent ductility and deformation absorption capacity;

  ・Excellent low-temperature performance: The glass transition temperature is as low as -58°C, which can remain flexible in severe cold conditions;

  ・Ultra-low flexural modulus (4 MPa): It means that the material is as soft as rubber, feels comfortable, and is easy to fit complex geometric structures;

  ・Extremely low specific gravity (0.862 g/cm³): It helps to lightweight the end product and is an ideal option for industries such as model aircraft, sports equipment, and mobile electronics;

  ・Moderate hardness adjustment: The Shore A hardness is 52, which has both deformation rebound ability and initial support strength.

02 | Application potential focus: From plastic modification to functional composite

▶ General plastic toughening agent

POE 7467 is widely used in the toughness modification of common polymers such as PP, PE, and PA. It can significantly improve the impact performance and fracture ductility at low addition, and is particularly suitable for thin-walled products and products used in low-temperature environments.

▶ Foaming and buffer layer materials

The melting point of the material is only 34°C and the crystallization temperature is only 13°C, which gives it a good processing window during the foaming process. With the appropriate foaming agent, POE resin can be used to prepare lightweight buffer pads, shoe midsoles, sports equipment protective layers, etc.

▶ Food contact and soft packaging

Due to the food contact grade certification, the material is clean and has low precipitation, POE 7467 is suitable for soft packaging layers, food gaskets, children's products and other fields that require both safety and flexibility.

04 | Process adaptation suggestions: Flexible processing tool with low melting temperature and high flow

  ・The melt index is 1.2 g/10min (190°C), with good fluidity, and can be adapted to various processing methods such as injection molding, extrusion, and blending;

  ・The Mooney viscosity is moderate (19MU), and the elastic segment viscosity can be adjusted in the rubber system to improve the uniformity of the system;

  ・It has excellent compatibility with talcum powder, and the official formula contains talcum powder, which can provide rigid support or demolding benefits in specific scenarios.

05 | Sustainable and green processing value

POE 7467 resin does not contain halogens and can be recycled with common thermoplastic materials such as PE and PP; the low melting temperature during processing helps to reduce overall energy consumption. For brands that want to optimize carbon emissions and environmental indicators, it is the preferred material for "equal emphasis on environmental protection and performance".
