Product Description
MALECCA is a high heat resistant ABS resin which is based on styrene-N-phenylmaleimide copolymer. MALECCA was developed by Denka using their advanced polymerization technologies. This high heat ABS is much more highly improved in the areas of heat stability, processing characteristics and impact strength over traditional alpha-methylstyrene-based resins and is very easy to use.
