SYNTHOS PS GP 585A is general purpose polystyrene (GPPS) with excellent optical properties, gloss, high heat resistance and mechanical strength. It is colorless, thermoplastic material designed for extrusion, injection moulding and thermoforming. Product has a form of cylindrical granules of diameter 2.5 to 6 mm. The product may contain small amounts of granulate finer than that mentioned above of irregular shapes. Presence of any mechanical impurities in the granulate is not allowed.

APPLICATION
Using injection molding one can produce from it packaging for CDs and DVDs, drawers for storage of vegetables and fruits in refrigerators, thick-walled products, bathroom and office equipment. Extrusion can be used to produce shower enclosure panels and sheets that can be thermoformed to cups for hot liquids. It is used in production of lightweight sheets (XPS). It is suitable for blending with high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) and SBS copolymers to increase the thermal resistance of the product e.g. cups for hot drinks. The composition of the polymer meets the requirements of the Health and can therefore be used for the production of articles coming into contact with food.
