Features & Benefits

Superior Electroplating Performance

Bayblend® 2953 offers flawless adhesion for metallic finishes, ensuring brilliant chrome-like surfaces without peeling—perfect for automotive trims or luxury electronics.

High Impact Resistance

With 46 kJ/m² notched impact strength at 23°C (and 35 kJ/m² at -30°C), it withstands drops and shocks, reducing part failure in tools or consumer devices.

Optimized Processing Efficiency

Precise melt temperatures (260–280°C) and quick drying (4 hours at 80°C) cut cycle times and energy costs in injection molding.
