Product Description
Film and sheet extrusion grade. Blended with SC*, for films with good balance of performance characteristics. Capability for inflation and sheet extrusion. It is supplied in pellet form.

In blends with GPPS, for IC carrier tapes. In blends with SC, for shrink films.

* Styrenic copolymer from PS Japan Corp. similar to Asaflex™ 830 in refraction index, resulting in blends that provide sheet transparency significantly higher than attainable with any GPPS (general-purpose polystyrene).
