HIPS compound is made of HIPS resin mixed with various additives and reinforcements in different formulas to meet the specific characteristics of plastic end products. Siddh Chemiplast currently provides customers with several types of HIPS compounds, including: HIPS antistatic compound (HIPS-antistatic) HIPS flame retardant compound (HIPS-FR)
HIPS conductive compound is made of HIPS resin and carbon black conductive or antistatic additives as the reinforcement. It increases mechanical properties, especially conductivity for end products.
