Edistir® N 3380

About
High molecular weight general purpose polystyrene combining high heat resistance and good mechanical strength. N 3380 belongs to Edisitr® GPPS third generation. Suitable for direct gassing extrusion, for biaxially oriented films and sheets, for glass clear sheets and panels. Also used in injection moulding of medium-thickness wall transparent parts. Thanks to N 3380, injected items will be more brilliant and neutral coloured in line with more sophisticated market needs. The new colour will be not appreciable in covered applications. Designation: Thermoplastics ISO 1622-PS,G,105-03. Applications Suitable for foamed packaging trays, clear panels for shower cabins, insulation boards (XPS), OPS for labels and packaging, moulded fridge clear components, Petri dishes and technical parts.&&
