Crystat®
(Anti-static Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene)
|
|
Semitransparent, inherently
anti-static material available in roll stock and thin gauge
sheet. Its strength and clarity make it excellent for
thermoforming.
The following physical property
information is based on typical values of the resin.
