GPPS1540 is an easy flowing crystal polystyrene designed for extrusion or injection applications. In extrusion, it improves extruder output and thermoforming cycle times when mixed with a super high impact polystyrene such as HIPS7240.
Extrusion Applications: Impact dilution, Gloss layer in co-extrusion, Anionic styrene butadiene copolymer dilution.
Injection Applications: Packaging articles, Medical applications, Petri dishes, Office equipment, Pen barrels, Crisper boxes for refrigerators, Cups.
Characteristics: Excellent fluidity with a high softening point.
