Product Description
Styrolux HS 70 is a clear styrene-butadiene copolymer (SBC) developed specifically for shrink sleeve label applications. Styrolux® HS 70 offers high ultimate shrinkage during processing, yet maintains very low shrinkage under typical storage conditions. It offers good toughness, high gloss, and excellent clarity. Because of its lower density, HS 70 provides better yield than other high shrinkage materials currently available in the market.
