Trinseo STYRON A-TECH™ 1200 High-Impact Polystyrene
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polystyrene (PS); Polystyrene, Impact Modified

Material Notes: STYRON A-TECH™ 1200 is a newly developed, high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) reins based on patented technology. The technology platform for STYRON A-TECH™ makes it possible to eliminate the typical trade-offs among the key properties for HIPS including toughness, gloss, stiffness and processability.

Main Characteristics:

  • Unique combination of toughness and stiffness
  • Ease of processing
  • Excellent thermoforming behavior
  • Good blendability with General Purpose Polystyrene (GPPS)
  • Allows for down-gauging
Applications:
  • Form Fill Seal (FFS)
  • Pre-Forms (DFS)
  • Vending cups
Complies with:
  • Europe REGULATION (EC) 10/2011
  • FDA, 21 CFR.177.1640
  • Consult the regulations for complete details
