What this grade is positioned to support
- SAN / AS impact and toughness evaluation
- Clarity-conscious formulation comparison
- Controlled small-batch processing trial
How to prepare the first evaluation
- 01
Blend the grade with SAN / AS resin for 5–8 minutes before processing.
- 02
Keep the base resin, thickness and processing conditions consistent between comparison samples.
- 03
Evaluate the stabilized molded result after at least 24 hours.
