PBS

Description

​

The PBS, polybutylene succinate, is considered, between all compostable and biodegradable polymers on the market, the best substitute for traditional plastics: ABS, PP and PE, PET...

​

Its semi-crystalline structure gives it excellent physical and mechanical properties, very similar to PP and ABS.

​

One of the most interesting characteristics of this material is the possibility to optain it from both organic and fossil sources. Therefore, the supply of industrial quantities is always guaranteed according to market needs.

​

The most important features and properties of PBS are:

​​​

  • High productivity comparable to polyolefins;

  • Excellent transparency in the film process;

  • Natural anti bacterial;

  • Natural white color of the raw material

  • Elevate speed of crystallization;

  • Wide application range between -20 ° C and 110 ° C;

  • Good binding properties;

  • High flexibility and resistance;

  • Good insulator ( as the PET);

  • Can be customized
