Edistir® N 3840

Generic Family: Polystyrene, General Purpose • Supplied by: Versalis S.p.A.
Edistir® N 3840 is a general purpose polystyrene combining easy flow and medium heat resistance. Edistir® N 3840 is suggested in extrusion for glossy capping of HIPS sheets and for blending with HIPS or clear SBS for stiffer thermoformable sheets. This grade exhibits excellent processability in injection moulding and it is recommended for complex and thin-walled parts and fast moulding cycles. Thanks to Edistir® N 3840, injected items will be bright and neutral coloured in line with the most sophisticated market needs.

Designation: Thermoplastics ISO 1622-PS,G,085-12.
