PS(GPPS, HIPS)/PP
alloy compatibilizer; preserves PS processability while
increasing resistance to heat and oil, and thus used for
food containers and trays, and in place of ABS. Effective
as additive to PS for recycling. Also effective as modifier
for enhancement of SAN, ABS, PPE, and other resins. Microwavable
food containers,
Inner laminate films for lunch boxes and trays, Portioned
food containers
