TOTAL Polystyrene Impact 3450

About
POLYSTYRENE IMPACT 3450 is a high impact polystyrene with high heat resistance, good flow, high stiffness and good aesthetics. With such an ideal balance of properties, POLYSTYRENE IMPACT 3450 is well suited for the fabrication of heat resistant items by injection molding and extrusion-thermoforming. In injection molding, the combination of good flow and high heat resistance of POLYSTYRENE IMPACT 3450 makes short cycle times possible. In extrusion-thermoforming, POLYSTYRENE IMPACT 3450 is perfectly designed for hot-fill applications. Applications High heat food packaging and miscellaneous heat-resistant items, coffee cups, office equipment, house hold, toys, teletronics.&&
