HIPS INEOS 476L
1.106 $ / mt21.014 $ / container (19.00 mt)MT
INEOS Styrolution® PS 476L (HIPS) – normal-flow, very high-impact polystyrene for injection & extrusion; easy processing, short cycle; food-contact compliant (FDA 21 CFR 177.1640).
Sold by container only: 19.00 mt/container. Quantity = number of containers.
Key Benefits
-
Normal flow with fast filling – MVR 5.5 cm³/10 min @ 200 °C / 5 kg enables short cycles for multi-cavity tools.
-
High practical toughness – Izod notched 11 kJ/m² @ 23 °C; Charpy notched 15 kJ/m² @ 23 °C; Charpy unnotched 130 kJ/m² @ −30 °C.
-
Stiff, dimensionally stable – Tensile modulus 1850 MPa, flexural modulus 1950 MPa; shrinkage 0.40–0.70 %.
-
Heat performance for GP HIPS – Vicat A/50 98 °C; Vicat B/50 90 °C; HDT (annealed) 89 °C @ 0.45 MPa / 80 °C @ 1.8 MPa.
-
Clean, glossy surface – 60° gloss ~35; low moisture uptake (<0.1%).
-
Food-contact ready – conforms to FDA 21 CFR 177.1640 when unmodified and processed appropriately.
