ALCOM® MED PS 1000 04001

Chemical Family
Styrenics

MOCOM Compounds ALCOM® MED PS 1000 04001 has a minimum shelf life of 24 months. Pre-drying conditions include in an air circulating dryer between 60-80°C for 2-3 hours, or in a dry air (dessiccant) dryer between 60-80°C for 2-3 hours depending on the moisture content. Processing injection molding requires a melt temperature between 180-260°C and a mold temperature between 10-70°C. The base polymer is Polystyrene and it is typically used for various applications such as consumer goods, food packaging, medical devices, and more.
