ALTECH® PS-HI A 1000/901 GN1232-20

MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PS-HI A 1000/901 GN1232-20 is a base polymer of Polystyrene with impact and special features of easy release (demolding) and injection molding grade, suitable for applications such as injection molded parts, bezels, and housings in the automotive, electrical and electronic, and building and construction market segments. Pre-drying conditions should be in a dry air (dessiccant) dryer at 60-80°C for 2-3 hours, and in an air circulating dryer at 60-80°C for 2-3 hours. Processing Injection molding should be done at a melt temperature of 180-260°C and a mold temperature of 10-70°C.
