Delrin® Product Sheet
Delrin® Renewable Attributed RA300CPE
Product overview
Delrin® Renewable Attributed (RA) 300CPE—a medium viscosity, low
emission acetal homopolymer—supports your sustainability goals with:
• Base polymer produced from 100% certified bio-feedstock from
waste, accredited through the International Sustainability and
Carbon Certification (ISCC) mass balance certification system
• Bio-feedstock from second-generation sources, not in
competition with the food and feed chain
• 100% certified renewable electricity used for production
• Lower product cradle-to-gate carbon footprint
• Reduction of non-renewable fossil resource usage
Delrin used in safety restraint systems
• Low VOC (below 2 ppm in VDA 275)
Delrin® RA300CPE delivers state-of-the-art low VOC technology
and top-class mechanical properties with reduced lifecycle
greenhouse gas emissions and lower fossil resource use.
Properties*
Delrin® RA300CPE offers the same superior performance and
quality as Delrin® 300CPE with an improved environmental impact
profile. (Sustainability assessment conducted using a
cradle-to-gate Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in accordance with
ISO 14040/14044 methodology.)

Delrin® RA300CPE delivers superior performance compared to
competitive high MW copolymers. With higher tensile properties
(+16%) and increased impact resistance (+45%) achieved on a significantly better flow, Delrin® RA300CPE enables the design of parts
with thinner walls while maintaining full functionality.
Designing lighter parts with Delrin® RA300CPE saves energy,
resources and money.

The use of reground Delrin has almost no influence on
mechanical properties and molding performance. Five passes
with 100% reground material are possible without any negative
effects on mechanical properties. Using Delrin helps increase
your internal recycling rate and achieves substantial
environmental and financial savings.

High performance
Delrin® Renewable Attributed RA300CPE outperforms high molecular
weight (MW) acetal copolymers, enabling sustainable design.
Certified sustainability
consistent quality and supply stability. Plus, our design, technical
and processing support helps you produce high-quality parts that
deliver on their promise.
By optimizing part design, Delrin® Renewable Attributed enables
environmental and cost savings compared to medium MW
copolymer alternatives.
Delrin® RA300CPE base polymer is produced using 100% bio-feedstock from waste, in accordance with mass balance principles.
A mass balance approach and chain of custody utilizes separate
bookkeeping from cradle to gate (feedstock to finished product)
and enables supply chain traceability. The Delrin® Renewable
Attributed manufacturing site and supply chain are accredited
through the globally-recognized International Sustainability and
Carbon Certification (ISCC) certification system.
