Lummus Technology homopolymer and copolymer grades represent the diversity of our product development, offering new opportunities in both established polypropylene applications and in new market segments. Due to their unique balance of properties, metallocene polymer grades will consolidate and broaden their market presence in high performance applications, which traditionally have been the territory of special conventional polypropylenes and transparent amorphous thermoplastics, i.e., polystyrene, or engineering plastics, i.e., polycarbonate.
