- Features
- Substitute for FR-ABS sheet with competitive pricing but superior cost/performance
- Higher breakage resistance than competitive thermoplastics as measured by the Notched Izod test
- Available in thicknesses from 0.71mm (0.028) and up, in 8 textures, a variety of colors, blank sizes and low minimums
- Among the most rigid of thermoforming materials with a modulus of elasticity of 2,482 MPa (360,000 psi)
- Easy to form with excellent part definition and deep-draw characteristics
- Form times similar to FR-ABS making it an easy transition from competitive products
