Asaflex™
815
High-performance clear styrenic copolymer (waxed) |
|
| Essentials |
Sheet grade. Blended with SC*, for
highly transparent sheets. It is supplied in pellet
form.
Contact
us for information on handling and us.
| * |
Styrenic copolymer from PS Japan
Corp. similar to Asaflex™ 815 in refraction
index, resulting in blends that provide sheet transparency
significantly higher than attainable with any GPPS
(general-purpose polystyrene). |
|
|
| Applications |
|
Blended with SC for transparent blister
packs and other sheets, with GPPS for frozen dessert
cups and other containers, and with GPPS/Tufprene™
to obtain PS sheets for food containers and other applications.
Food containers,
Frozen dessert cups, Blister packs
