1 of 305 products in this brand
MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PS-HI A 1000/901 BK1261-20 is a polystyrene-based injection-molding grade with easy-release (demolding) and impact properties, making it suitable for use in the automotive, electrical and electronic, and building and construction markets for injection-molded parts such as bezels and housings. Pre-drying conditions involve a dry-air (dessiccant) dryer at 60-80°C for 2-3 hours, or an air-circulating dryer at 60-80°C for 2-3 hours. Processing injection-molding requires melt temperatures of 180-260°C and mold temperatures of 10-70°C. This material should be stored in a cool, dark place to protect it from light.

Polymer Name: High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS)

Processing Methods: Injection Molding
