INEOS Styrolution GPPS 147F – crystal-clear, medium-flow general-purpose polystyrene (GPPS) for injection-moulded housewares, stationery and thin-wall packaging that must stay bright and dimensionally precise.
Sold by container only: 18.50 mt/container. Quantity = number of containers.
Key Benefits
| Benefit | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Brilliant clarity & high gloss | “Water-clear” appearance enhances see-through covers, food containers and display parts. |
| Stable medium flow (MFR ≈ 9 g/10 min, 200 °C/5 kg*) | Fills thin-wall, multi-cavity tools without losing optical quality. |
| Rigid & dimensionally accurate | Tensile modulus ≈ 3.3 GPa keeps parts flat; low mould-shrinkage (0.4–0.6 %) simplifies tooling. |
| Food-contact capable | Typically complies with EU 10/2011 & US FDA 21 CFR 177.1640** – suitable for single-use cups, cutlery. |
| Easy colouring & foaming | Accepts masterbatch evenly; also used as carrier resin in physical/chemical foaming processes. |
*Nominal values from INEOS Styrolution literature for GPPS 147F / 147.
