ALTECH® PS FC 1000/507

MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PS FC 1000/507 is a white polystyrene impact copolymer used for various packaging applications, suitable for food contact. Pre-drying conditions should be done in a dry air (dessiccant) dryer at 60-75°C for 2-3 hours, or an air circulating dryer at 60-75°C for 2-3 hours. Processing should be done through injection molding, with a melt temperature of 180-260°C and a mold temperature of 10-70°C.
