Plexiglas® HFI7

About
Plexiglas® HFI7 is an impact modified thermoplastic acrylic resin formulated for injection molding. It has very high melt flow, enhanced mold release properties and provides 7 times the impact resistance of standard acrylics while maintaining excellent optical properties. It offers an excellent balance between melt flow and increased resistance to breakage, while providing weatherability superior to that provided by other high-impact plastics. Supplemental moldflow simulation data is available.&&
