Product Information Asaflex
Asaflex™ 825
High-performance clear styrenic copolymer
Essentials

Injection- and blow-molding grade. For transparent products with superior impact strength. Blended with GPPS (general-purpose polystyrene) or SC*, for films with good thermal stability. Capability for profile-extrusion products. It is supplied in pellet form.

Contact us for information on handling and use.

* Styrenic copolymer from PS Japan Corp. similar to Asaflex™ 825 in refraction index, resulting in blends that provide sheet transparency significantly higher than attainable with any GPPS.

Applications

Cosmetics caps, stationery goods, other consumer goods. Blended with GPPS for PSP* laminate films and IC magazine rails, and with SC for shrink films.
Shrink film for PET bottles, Laminate film, Gardening ampoules, IC magazine rails

*PSP; Polystyrene paper (foamed PS)
