SUPREME PETROCHEM LTD

SPL

SUPREME PETROCHEM LTD (SPL) is the

largest manufacturer and exporter of

Polystyrene, EPS, XPS, Master batch and

compounds from India.

Our Amdoshi plant features fully automated

DCS controlled PS, EPS plant, state of art

compounding facilities and extruded PS

boards unit. Our other production facility at

Manali (Chennai) manufacture standard and

FR EPS grades.

SPL's installed capacity of 272,000 Tones per

Annum for Polystyrene makes it the

undisputed Indian leader in the Indian Polystyrene market. SPL is also the largest

manufacturer of EPS with installed capacity of 72,100 Tones per Annum of EPS. SPL has

established India’s rst foam Extrusion PS (XPS), plant with a capacity of 100,000 Cubic

Meters per Annum.

STYRENE METHYLMETHACRYLATE COPOLYMER (SMMA)

SPL launches BPA-Free range of Styrene Methyl

Methacrylate Copolymer (SMMA) with installed capacity

of 42,500 Tons per Annum.

SMMA has become a viable alternative to PMMA and low end

applications of Polycarbonate (PC) where rigidity,

toughness, optical clarity and cost is critical to the

applications.

SUPREME range of SMMA grades has excellent clarity and

ease of processing.

SUPREME SMMA provides excellent thermal stability, good

chemical resistance, low molded-in stresses and excellent

light transmission.

SUPREME SMMA grades are suitable for Injection molding

and Extrusion.

SPL has decided to launch four variants for different

application segments in addition to impact–modied grades

in a phased manner.

Advantages of using SUPREME SMMA

v Lower density compared to PMMA and PC offer immediate cost savings.

v Excellent adhesion to TPE (SEBS/SBS) offer scope for many applications like transparent

disposable razors where good bonding and soft touch are main functional requirements.

v Lower processing conditions compare to PMMA and PC resulting in improved productivity

and lower cost of production.

v BPA-free SUPREME SMMA can be used in food contact applications is important typically

for re-useable drinking glasses, food storage jars etc.

v Lower moisture absorption gives rise to better dimensional stability vis-a vis PMMA in

addition to savings in processing cost.
