Styron A-Tech 1175
About this Product
STYRON A-TECH 1175 advanced technology polystyrene is a high impact, environmental stress crack resistant (ESCR) resin, designed for extrusion and thermoforming applications, especially for the refrigeration industry. Based on patented technology, this resin allows for potential downgauging and scrap reduction in the thermoforming process through its combination of properties like ESCR, rigidity and thermoforming.
Main characteristics:
Allows for downgauging
ESCR to food stuff and hydrocarbons
Ease of processing in extrusion and thermoforming
Excellent thermoforming behaviour
Increased rigidity
Applications:
Large Appliance / Refrigeration liners
General extrusion / thermoforming applications requiring ESCR
Complies with:
Europe REGULATION (EC) 10/2011
