Axion Polymers Axplas® PS04 0000 Mixed Polystyrene Granules with FR  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Renewable/Recycled Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polystyrene (PS); Polystyrene, Flame Retardant

Material Notes: The PS04 series of clean, mixed polystyrene granular chips offers a low-cost option for manufacturers to add post-consumer, engineering polymers to a wide range of products. The polymer mix includes a high proportion of styrenic thermoplastics including PS, HIPS, ABS and traces of PC/ABS.

The Axplas® PS04 product is produced under strict quality control procedures and is consistently free from metal and other contaminants. The origin of the material means that this granular fraction contains a higher level of brominated flame retardants than our fully compounded resins - a factor which some users see as a potential benefit in the end-use application of the material.

Produced from 100% post-consumer raw materials, this product fits closely with Axion's other recycled resin grades and offers the same set of user benefits, including:

  • Huge savings in CO2 impact
  • Appeals to 'greener' customers
  • Cost-down on raw material

The Axplas PS04 chips have a particle size range with 90% of mass between 2-8 mm.
