Achieve transparent, tough and cost effective solutions for polystyrene injection molded parts
Problem: GPPS alone displays high transpoarency, but low toughness. In today's markets, application require a balance of the two.
Solution: By blending GPPS with Styrolux® , (BASF's styrene-butadiene block copolymer - SBC) you can produce transparent, tough, colored injection molded parts. Take advantage of greater flexibility in adjusting the stiffness/toughness ratio to suit your needs.
Blend Styrolux® with GPPS - flexibility in adjusting stiffness/toughness
Figure 1 - Styrolux® blended with GPPS allowing greater flexibility in adjusting stiffness & toughness, meaning it is a good alternative to PVC & PET transparent applications.
