LG TR-558AI Transparent ABS/MABS Extrusion Grade Resin Pellets
TR-558AI is a high-stiffness, transparent ABS (MABS) grade produced by LG Chem — one of Korea's largest petrochemical manufacturers and a global leader in ABS technology. It is the high-rigidity variant of LG's well-established TR-558 transparent ABS series, widely specified by Korean and global appliance, automotive, and sheet extrusion manufacturers.
This grade combines 90% light transmittance with only 2–2.5% haze (PMMA-like optical appearance) and the genuine toughness of ABS. With a low melt flow rate of 2.2 g/10min (200°C/5kg) and high melt strength, it extrudes smoothly into sheets and profiles without sagging, while its high flexural modulus (2400 MPa) makes it equally suitable for thick-wall, snap-fit transparent structural parts. LEMA supplies genuine LG Chem TR-558AI in original 25kg bags with full TDS/COA documentation.
Key Features:
True transparency — 90% transmittance, 2–2.5% haze, high-gloss PMMA-like finish, no painting needed
High stiffness — Flexural modulus 2400 MPa, Rockwell R112, resistant to deformation and scratching
High impact & low-temp toughness — stable performance at −30°C, resistant to stress-whitening and cracking
Extrusion-friendly — low MFR, high melt strength, stable sheet/film/profile extrusion
