LUCOBIT developed compounds with 80% CACO3 for breathable, CO2 optimized back sheets with up to 70% CACO3
LUCOBIT AG (D-50389 Wesseling, www.LUCOBIT.DE) has developed a compound with 80%
CACO3 that can be processed into films with up to 70% CACO3. The film can be produced with a thickness of just a few µm and exhibits considerable breathability WITHOUT additional stretching. The film produced with Lucofin® is also characterized by a silky surface and high toughness.
In addition, films produced with Lucofin® have a significantly lower CO2 footprint than
conventional films. Thanks to the higher proportion of up to 70% CACO3 instead of the usual 50% CACO3 and a basis weight of significantly less than 8 GSM instead of
12-15 GSM, the film with Lucofin® causes up to 45% less CO2 emissions than the films
currently in use.
Lucofin® is available in 2 qualities:
Lucofin® 7182 adapted for blown film extrusion and
Lucofin® 8182 for cast film extrusion.
