Material Notes:

7240 is a very high impact polystyrene for the extrusion industry. This grade has been designed to be diluted with crystal polystyrene (such as LACQRENE® 140, 1340 or 1540) at higher levels than could be achieved by some comparable high impact polystyrenes. The good melt strength of this grade makes it particularly suited for deep-draw thermoforming.ApplicationDairy sheet, Fill, Seal, Individual dairy pots, Multilayer sheets, Cups, Food trays, Egg boxesInformation provided provided by Total Petrochemicals.Total Petrochemicals acquired former Fina and Atofina plastics product lines. This product was previously known as LACQRENE®
