 Styrolux 684D
Styrene Butadiene Copolymer (SBC)

Styrolux is supplied in pellet form and should be kept in its original containers in cool, dry place. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight. Styrolux®
can be stored in silos at temperatures well below 45 °C.

PRODUCT SAFETY
During processing of Styrolux® small quantities of styrene monomer may be released into the atmosphere. At styrene vapor concentrations
below 20 ppm no negative effects on health are expected. In our experience, the concentration of styrene does not exceed 1 ppm in well
ventilated workplaces - that is where five to eight air changes per hour are made. For safety information please refer to our Material Safety
Data Sheet for this product.

DISCLAIMER
The above mentioned data are accurate to the best of our knowledge. They are based upon reputable labs and industry standard testing
methods. These are only typical values and actual product specification may deviate at industrial range. Therefore, no data in this technical
data sheet shall constitute a warranty or representation regarding product features, fitness of the product for a specific purpose or application
or its processability. INEOS Styrolution disclaims all liability in connection therewith. The customer himself is required to verify whether or not
the product is suitable for the further processing or application intended and whether or not the product complies with the relevant statutory
requirements. Unless explicitly and individually otherwise agreed in writing, INEOS Styrolution's sole and exclusive liability with respect to its
products is set forth in INEOS Styrolution's General Terms and Conditions for Sale.
