SABIC Paints a Bright Future for Laser Direct Structuring with New Custom-Colorable LNP* Thermocomp* Compound
BERGEN OP ZOOM, The Netherlands – June 9, 2011 – The Innovative Plastics strategic business unit of SABIC announced at Chinaplas, the first new custom-colorable LNP* Thermocomp* thermoplastic compound for laser direct structuring (LDS) to save space and reduce the weight of mobile devices.

The introduction of the company’s new colorable LNP Thermocomp compound vastly expands device design options. This new material introduction demonstrates Innovative Plastics’ pioneering leadership in advanced technologies for the design and manufacture of tomorrow’s portable devices.
