Styrolux® 3G55 | Africa & Middle East |
Styrolux® 3G55 is a clear styrene butadiene copolymer (SBC) used mainly in sheet extrusion and thermoforming applications. It is specifically designed for improved performance in blends with general-purpose polystyrene, providing parts with an excellent balance of toughness, transparency and economics. Because of the tendency of blocking, 3G55 is mainly used in inline thermoforming. 3G55 is difficult to print and decorate since it contains a microcrystalline wax.
FEATURES
- Outstanding toughness
- Highest GPPS blend capability
- Good Clarity
APPLICATIONS
- Food and non-food packaging
- Food service items
- Drinking cups
- Extruded films
- In-line thermoforming

Styrolux® 684D | Africa & Middle East |
Styrolux® 684D is a clear styrene-butadiene copolymer (SBC) used in injection molding for parts with enhanced toughness as well as in sheet and film extrusion and blow molding. Parts made of Styrolux® 684D reveal excellent printability.
FEATURES
- High clarity
- Improved toughness
- Good printability
APPLICATIONS
- Food and non-food packaging
- Container, cups and lids
- Toys
- Extruded sheet and thin film
- Medical devices
- Blow moldings
|
Styrolux® 693D | Africa & Middle East |
Styrolux® 693D is a clear styrene-butadiene copolymer (SBC) with a well balanced combination of toughness and clarity. Styrolux 693D is mainly used for thermoformed articles, especially in blends with general-purpose polystyrene. Styrolux® 693D contains a microcrystalline wax which acts as an antiblock providing processing benefits but decreases the printability.
FEATURES
- Good clarity
- Very high toughness
- Enhanced GPPS blend capability
APPLICATIONS
- Food and non-food packaging
- Blown film
- Cups for cold beverages
- Thermoformed transparent containers
- Lids & Boxes

Styrolux® M | Africa & Middle East |
Styrolux® M is a new, clear and rigid styrene-butadiene copolymer (SBC) designed specifically for shrink film applications. Styrolux® has been developed for blending with other SBC components like Styrolux® S, which increases the stiffness of the film and Styrolux® T1, which increases the toughness of the film. Styrolux® M is used to tailor-made the ultimate shrinkage while keeping the mechanical properties.
FEATURES
- Excellent clarity and stiffness
- Medium shrinkage (up to 60%)
- Very good shrinkage control
- Low gel content
- Reduced film stickiness
APPLICATIONS
- Blend component for Styrolux S & T1
- Shrink sleeve applications
|
Styrolux® S | Africa & Middle East |
Styrolux® S is a new developmental, clear styrene-butadiene copolymer (SBC) designed specifically for blending with Styrolux® T in order to enable high performance film extrusion and shrink film applications. As Styrolux® S is blended with Styrolux® T it increases the stiffness of the film and improves the storage stability of film reels (reduced natural shrinkage).
FEATURES
- Excellent clarity
- High stiffmess
- Very low gel content
APPLICATIONS
- Blend component for Styrolux T
- Shrink sleeve applications
- Label film
|
Styrolux® T | Africa & Middle East |
Styrolux® T is a new developmental, clear and tough styrene-butadiene copolymer (SBC) designed specifically for high performance film extrusion and shrink film applications. Styrolux® T has been developped for blending with a second SBC component, Styrolux® S, which inceases the stiffness of the film and improves the storage stability of film reels (reduced natural shrinkage).
FEATURES
- High clarity and toughness
- Maximum shrinkage up to 80%
- Very good shrinkage control
- Very low gel content
APPLICATIONS
- Blend component for Styrolux S
- Shrink sleeve applications
- Label film
|
Styrolux® T1 | Africa & Middle East |
Styrolux® T1 is a new, clear and tough styrene-butadiene copolymer (SBC) designed specifically for high performance film extrusion and shrink film applications. Styrolux® T1 has been developed for blending with a sceond SBC component, Styrolux® S, which increases the stiffness of the film and improves the storage stability of film reels (reduced natural shrinkage).
FEATURES
- Excellent clarity and toughness
- High shrinkage up to 70%
- Very good shrinkage control
- Low gel content
- Reduced film stickiness
APPLICATIONS
- Blend component for Styrolux S
