Description
The crystal polystyrene is a thermoplastic styrenic family. It is used for yoghurt pots, optical diffusers, medical articles. Food grade, it is transparent and rigid. It is against brittle, electrostatic and has poor resistance to gasoline and UV.
Business
Polystyrene is found in all business sectors.
Process
The PS is shaped mainly by injection molding, extrusion and thermoforming. It decorates and stains easily. It is possible to realize a metallization or a mirror effect.
Sensorial aspect
Clear and bright, it is hard and warm to the touch and a metallic sound.
Technical summary
Medium mechanical properties, the PS outfits UV, fire and scratch rather poor.

recyclable material that we can use again.
POLYPROPYLENE
Description
Polypropylene is a thermoplastic in the polyolefin family, developed in 1957 by Montecatini. It is used for many different materials such as bags, films, piping, cups and bottles as well as in the field of toys. PP is a food quality denomination and has good chemical suits, thermal and flexural tender quality for making hinges. Welding and bonding are difficult. It is sensitive to UV, modified, it acquires a wide variety of qualities. Include polypropylene in two forms: Homopolymer and Copolymer. Copolymers qualities are preferred for a process in cold conditions. The homopolymer form is harder and resistant to survive in higher temperatures.
Business
The PP is used in many sectors including food, packaging, toys, automobile.
Process
Used in conventional implementations techniques: injection, extrusion, coating. Polypropylene is difficult to glue, to solder ,but is easily to color.
Sensorial aspect
It is translucent, shiny, flexible, smooth, warm, tasteless, odorless and dull sound.
Technical summary
With medium mechanical properties and outfits to fire, UV and scratch average , PP is used on a broad range of temperatures. Good elastic properties.
Chemical Compatibility
Unknown
Eco Design
Recyclable material, which can be used for recycling.
