Drive Shining Opportunities
for Low Gloss Bayblend®


Your automotive manufacturer client has a wish-list a mile long. The parts need to be plastic, but low gloss... They have to resist scratches, and also perform well... They need to be cost-effective, yet be easy on the environment... Plus, their parts need to play their part in meeting today's tough emissions restrictions.

So how do you help them meet their goals?

One new low gloss, high-performance resin might just be your answer!

Bayer MaterialScience is pleased to introduce Bayblend LGX 300.

This unique polycarbonate blend is inherently low in gloss and has a high melt flow rate, which allows it to replicate different surfaces and grains with accuracy. Glove box doors, cup holders, door trim—and more!—all can achieve the low-gloss, elegantly-textured looks that resist heat, impact, and scratches.

Bayblend LGX 300 is a low-emissions polycarbonate formulation, ideal for manufacturers looking to reduce their levels of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) and comply with today rigorous government emissions standards.

And because Bayblend LGX 300 resin withstands high temperatures and dramatic weather changes, less colorant is needed for UV resistance. This means your thin wall parts won't need to be painted—making parts durable and more cost-effective.

Scratch resistant, low-gloss, versatile and less costly... Let Bayblend LGX 300 drive your next automotive manufacturing opportunity.
