Polycarbonates used in engineering are strong, tough materials, it has high impact-resistance, it has low scratch-resistance. See spec Sheet…
Polyester
Polyesters are also used to make bottles, films, canoes, liquid crystal displays , filters, dielectric film for capacitors, film insulation for wire. See spec sheet…
GPPS (General Purpose Polystyrene)
is a synthetic aromatic polymer made from the monomer styrene. Used in the manufacture of Toys and novelties, rigid packaging, refrigerator trays and boxes, cosmetic packs. See spec sheet…
HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene)
Is a tough, rigid plastic material with high impact strength which can be guillotined, punched, router’ed or sawn easily. See spec sheet…
SAN (Styrene acrylonitrile)
It is widely used in place of polystyrene owing to its greater thermal resistance.
PEEK
PEEK is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic with excellent mechanical and chemical resistance properties that are retained to high temperatures. See spec sheet
TPU / TPE (Thermoplastic elastomers)
Sometimes referred to as thermoplastic rubbers, are a class of copolymers or a physical mix of polymers (usually a plastic and a rubber) which consist of materials with both thermoplastic and elastomeric properties. See Spec sheet
PBT (Polybutylene terephthalate)
Is a thermoplastic engineering polymer that is used as an insulator in the electrical and electronics industries. See spec sheet…
