1 of 363 products in this brand
MOCOM Compounds ALCOM® ASA 540/7 UV SV1281-08MCF is a UV-stabilized Acrylonitile/Styrene/Acrylate/Copolymer with a low tendency to form flow lines and a metallic effect, similar to that of RAL 9006. It is suitable for injection molding with a melt temperature range of 240-280°C, and a mold temperature range of 40-80°C. It is suitable for use in electrical and electronic, building and construction, and sport and leisure applications, such as for housings. For optimal performance, it should be stored in a dry and light-protected environment.
