GRS Recycled AS Acrylonitrile-styrene Copolymer

Recycled AS (Acrylonitrile Styrene) plastic involves reprocessing used AS plastic waste into new products, reducing landfill burden and reliance on virgin materials, though it often faces challenges with contamination, quality degradation (downcycling), and potential health concerns from residual chemicals, requiring careful sorting and processing, with regulations and certifications like RecyClass emerging to ensure transparency and traceability for various applications, including non-food packaging. applications, both derived from petroleum-based monomers through polymerization.

Yujiepcr Recycled AS plastic has the Key Information:

- Full Name: Acrylonitrile-Styrene Copolymer (AS/SAN); Recycled AS is R-AS/RABS, often simply referred to as AS.

- Performance: Virgin AS offers high transparency, high rigidity, chemical resistance, and good flowability, suitable for transparent/high-gloss shells; Recycled R-AS offers high impact resistance, easy processing, and excellent surface gloss, and can be modified to ordinary/fire-retardant/fiber-reinforced grades, suitable for injection molding/extrusion/electroplating/coating.

- Certifications: R-AS is compliant with GRS, OBP, UL2809, RoHS, REACH, FDA/LFGB, and IATF16949; Virgin AS meets corresponding industry quality and environmental standards. - Supply and Customization: AS is available in natural, transparent, and black colors; R-AS supports GRS/OBP content traceability and can be customized by color, impact resistance, flowability, flame retardancy, and fiber reinforcement (10%-30%). Stable supply is available for both sample testing and bulk orders. Typical Grades and Applications

- AS Virgin Material: Transparent grade for food containers, stationery, lighting fixtures, and transparent packaging; High-flow grade for thin-walled injection molded parts.

- R-AS XL700 (General Grade): Appliance housings, printer/speaker housings, toys, and cosmetic boxes.

- R-AS XL100A (Flame Retardant Grade): Computer peripherals, controller housings, power supply components, and switches/circuit breakers.

- R-AS XL700GF10-30 (Fiber Reinforced Grade): Communication equipment, automotive parts, luggage, etc., high toughness, dimensional stability, and no loose fibers. Purchasing Tips

- When choosing AS virgin material, confirm transparency, flowability, chemical resistance, and food contact certifications.

- Select R-AS recycled AS materials: Confirm the recycled material content, color, fire resistance/fiber reinforcement rating, GRS/OBP certification and TC traceability, and conduct sample testing to match the working conditions.
