Description
Material Notes:
Extremely easy flowing medium impact polystyrene, designed for extreme short cycle times for injection molding of household, packaging and toys. The material is provided with external lubricant to improve flow properties in air conveying systems and to guarantee easy molding. For certain applications a non-lubricated type has to be preferred.All mechanical properties measured under standard conditions 50% RH and 23°C.Information provided by NOVA Chemicals.INEOS NOVA began October 1 2007 as an expansion of the 50:50 joint venture between NOVA Chemicals and INEOS to include North American assets.
