TotalEnergies Polystyrene Crystal 1160

Generic Family: Polystyrene, General Purpose • Supplied by: TotalEnergies
POLYSTYRENE CRYSTAL 1160 is a high heat resistance, high molecular weight crystal polystyrene mainly for the extrusion industry. Most notably for the production of bi-oriented polystyrene (BOPS). It is particularly useful in the production of sheet for food packaging and insulation board made by direct gassing, where it gives expanded sheets with high mechanical properties.

POLYSTYRENE CRYSTAL 1160 can be used pure for the production of transparent cups or in dilution with POLYSTYRENE IMPACT 7240 for the extrusion of sheet for hot-fill thermoforming applications.

The main applications are foamed trays, shower screens, high heat resistant thermoformed products, transparent cups, XPS.
