ASTALON™ S3000U

About
ASTALON™ S3000U / S3001U / S3003U are the standard low/medium viscosity (high melt flow) grades in the ASTALON™ range and are suited to general purpose injection moulding applications which require UV stabilisation (U). Offering an exceptional combination of transparency, toughness, heat resistance, flame retardancy and processability, typical applications include emergency vehicle lighting, electrical junction box covers and marine navigation lamp lenses. Note: [ Standard grade = S3000U ] / [ FDA approved = S3001U ] / [ Steam resistant = S3003U ].
