Versalis Edistir RCL 600 Polystyrene (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polystyrene (PS)
Material Notes:	Special medium impact polystyrene extrusion grade exhibiting very high gloss. This grade should be used where is required an excellent surface finish. It can be directly extruded in foils and sheets or coextruded on the top of conventional HIPS for aesthetics upgrading. Designation: Thermoplastics ISO 2897-PS-I,E,088-06-04-18 Applications: Examples of application are decorative panels, glossy inner liners for refrigerators, packaging for cosmetics. RCL 600 is certified UL94 HB "all colors" at 1.5 mm (UL file E83071). This grade in its natural version complies by composition with the requirements set by the main Regulations for plastic materials intended for food contact (including the EEC Directive 90/128 and subsequent amendments). Information provided by Polimeri Europa Versalis is the Eni subsidiary containing the plastics and rubber businesses.
