G 3160

G 3160

Main Features

G 3160 is a high molecular weight general purpose polystyrene combining high heat resistance and good mechanical strength. G 3160 is suitable for direct gassing extrusion, biaxially oriented film and sheet, glass clear sheets and panels. Also used in injection molding of medium wall-thickness transparent parts. Thanks to G 3160, injected items will be bright and neutral colored in line with the most sophisticated market needs

 

Applications

G 3160 is suitable in a large variety of sectors such as: foamed packaging trays
• foamed packaging trays
• clear panels for shower cubicles
• insulation boards (XPS)
• clear molded fridge components
• medical items

 

Typical processing data

Extrusion:
• melt temperature 210-240°C
Injection moulding:
• predrying normally not required
• melt temperature 220-270°C
suggested temperature around 240°C
• mould temperature 20-60°C

 

Storage

Store away from atmospheric agents and direct sunlight, away from sources of heat and light. The product, if stored correctly, keeps its characteristics for at least fifteen months.
