Delrin® Product Sheet
Delrin® Renewable Attributed RA511CPE
Product overview
Delrin® Renewable Attributed (RA) 511CPE—a nucleated 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
Delrin used in e-bikes
• Lower product cradle-to-gate carbon footprint
Delrin® RA511CPE delivers state-of-the-art low VOC
technology and top-class mechanical properties with reduced
lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions and lower fossil resource use.
• Reduction of non-renewable fossil resource usage
• Low VOC (below 2 ppm in VDA 275)
Delrin® RA511CPE offers the same superior performance and
quality as Delrin® 511CPE 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)

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 effect
on mechanical properties. Using Delrin helps increase your internal
recycling rate and achieves substantial environmental and
financial savings.

Delrin® RA511CPE base polymer is produced using 100% biofeedstock 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.
Enable sustainable design
Delrin® RA511CPE delivers superior performance compared to
competitive medium MW copolymers, as well as competitive high
MW copolymers. With higher tensile properties (+20%) and
increased impact resistance (+15%) achieved on a significantly
better flow, Delrin® RA511CPE permits the design of parts with thinner
walls while maintaining full functionality.
Designing lighter parts with Delrin® RA511CPE saves energy,
resources and money.
