Synthos PS GP 171

About
SYNTHOS PS GP 171 is general purpose polystyrene (GPPS) with excellent optical properties, gloss, high heat resistance and mechanical strength. It is a thermoplastic material designed for extrusion, thermoforming and injection moulding. Product has a form of cylindrical granules of diameter 2.5 to 6 mms. APPLICATION Injection moulding is used to produce parts with increased thermal and mechanical resistance. Extrusion is used to produce e.g. shower enclosures panels and biaxially-oriented sheets (BOPS). It is used in the production of lightweight sheets (XPS). It is suitable for blending with high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) and SBS copolymers to increase the thermal resistance of the product e.g. cups for hot drinks. The composition of the polymer meets the requirements of the Health and can therefore be used for the production of articles coming into contact with food.&&
