Applications include automotive interior/exterior materials, refrigerator vegetable boxes, copiers, vacuum cleaners, washing machines, and air conditioners. The supply chain involves the supply of raw materials to electronic and electrical appliance and automotive parts manufacturers, which are processed through injection molding and ultimately used in final products.
• LG Chem also produces polypropylene (PP), a commonly used plastic known for its excellent tensile strength and impact resistance. PP is used in films, textiles, automotive parts, ropes, non-woven fabrics, and IV solution bags, among others. LG Chem specializes in the production of PP for injection molding and fibers. The supply chain involves the supply of raw materials to automotive parts manufacturers for compounding and injection molding, which are ultimately used in final products such as non-woven fabrics and automotive bumpers.
