ALTECH® PS-HI B 1000/100

MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PS-HI B 1000/100 is a polystyrene-based injection molding grade with special features for electrical and electronic components, suitable for applications such as housings and functional components. It must be kept in a dry, light-protected environment not exceeding 30°C. Pre-drying conditions depend on moisture content and can be done in a dry air (dessiccant) dryer or air circulating dryer at 60-80°C for 2-3 hours. Processing injection molding requires a melt temperature of 180-260°C and a mold temperature of 10-70°C.
