Versalis Edistir® N 3840 General Purpose Polystyrene
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polystyrene (PS)
Material Notes:	General purpose polystyrene combining easy flow and medium heat resistance. N 3840 belongs to the third generation of Edistir® GPPS. Edistir® N 3840 is suggested in extrusion for glossy capping of HIPS sheets and for blending with HIPS or clear SBS for stiffer thermo formable sheets. This grade exhibits excellent process ability in injection molding and it is recommended for complex and thin-walled parts and fast molding cycles. Thanks to N 3840, injected items will be brighter and neutral colored in line with more sophisticated market needs. Applications: Thermoformed disposable packaging and glossy sheets for industrial and fridge applications. Injection molding of drinking cups, food and cosmetics containers, toys, house ware and medical articles (petri dishes). Information provided by Versalis.
