INEOS Styrolution 495F Hot Sale HIPS Resin

Physical Properties

• Density: As measured by ISO 1183, the density is 1.05 g/cc (0.0379 lb/in³), a key property for evaluating material mass and suitability in design applications.
• Moisture Absorption at Equilibrium: At 23.0°C (73.4°F)/50% RH, equilibrium moisture absorption ≤0.10% per ISO 62 indicates stability in moderate humidity.
• Water Absorption at Saturation: At 23.0°C (73.4°F), saturation water absorption ≤0.10% per ISO 62 reflects low moisture uptake under full immersion.
• Linear Mold Shrinkage: Ranging 0.0030–0.0060 cm/cm (in/in) per ISO 294-4, this data predicts dimensional cooling changes in injection-molded parts.
• Melt Flow: At 200°C (392°F), 5.00 kg (11.0 lb) load gives melt flow rate 9.5 g/10 min per ISO 1133, indicating efficient flow for high-speed molding.

Polymer Properties:

• Base Material: HIPS
• Modification Features:
  
  • High flowability allows for efficient production of complex injection-molded parts.
  • High impact resistance and stiffness make it suitable for durable consumer and industrial products.
  • Good heat resistance ensures performance in applications with moderate temperature exposure.

Applications:

• Consumer Electronics
