LUCOBIT AG products are the right choice for compounding, e.g. Cable & Wire compounds or masterbatch. Fillers, HFFR additives, colour pigments and other additives can be easily added. Here some examples why Lucofin® is used in compounding:

• Easy processability and high melt strength
  
• High filler loading capacity e.g. ATH (Aluminum trihydrate), MDH (Magnesium dihydroxide), HFFR, chalk, carbon black…
  
• Extrusion melt temperature up to 300 °C resulting in increased production output
  
• Limited ageing at elevated temperatures
  
• US FDA and European Food Approval Certificates
  
• Bestow flexibility and impact resistance and/or softness to otherwise brittle polymers e.g. PA, PA/ABS, PBT, PET,…
  
• Easily applied through all known crosslinking processes
  

The majority of LUCOBIT AG products are based on EBA = Eth-ylenebutylacrylate. The repeat unit of this copolymer is shown in the Figure to your right. This structure explains many of its unique properties as explained on the next page.
