POLYCASA® PS - SOLIAO

About
PS is the brand name for Polycasa’s extruded Crystal Polystyrene sheets, offering solutions for many indoor applications. As well as clear, anti-reflex and standard opal white, a variety of colours and designs are also available as a result of the extrusion process Polycasa can offer. CHARACTERISTICS Good optical properties and a brilliant surface. High light transmission (min 88% wavelength: 500 nm, thickness 3 mm). Low price. Low density (1.05). Good chemical resistance and high rigidity. UV-stabilised – remains colour constant for many years when used indoors. (On special request Polycasa PS sheets can be produced without UV-stabilisation. They then meet all current food contact legislation and can be used in contact with foodstuffs.) Possibility of corona treatment – process to increase surface tension. (The result after corona treatment is a surface that is unchanged to the naked eye, but in fact is much more receptive to inks, coatings, and adhesives.) Polycasa PS sheets also combine the following excellent properties: Excellent transparency. Good surface hardness. Good recyclability. Low water absorption. APPLICATIONS Picture frames. Shower cabin doors (flat and curved). Indoor glazing.&&
