Luminy® L105

Supplied byTotalEnergies Corbion- Last Updated on Oct 18, 2019

Luminy® L105 by Total Corbion PLA is an odorless, high heat, high flow polylactic acid (PLA) homopolymer grade. Exhibits higher melting point and an increased rate of crystallization. Offers a significant reduction in carbon footprint compared to oil-based plastics. It is suitable for processing by thin wall injection molding and fiber spinning. It has a bio-based content of 100% (confidence level 1) and a bio-based carbon content of 100% according to EN16785-1 under certificate number DIC-00001. Compounds containing PLA homopolymers are suitable for the production of semi-crystalline parts, which exhibit a higher temperature resistance. Complies with EN-13432 standard. Luminy® L105 meets EU commission regulation 10/2011 on plastic materials and articles for food contact applications. It has been certified compostable by Vinçotte (OK Compost S478) and by European Bioplastics 7W2030 (Seedling 7W2030) up to a thickness of 1.0 mm.
