Abstract
A rigid thermoformable packaging material is provided which includes an outer layer of a nonfoamed oriented polystyrene and an inner layer of a functional polymer resin. The laminated packaging material can be produced by either thermal lamination or coextrusion. The packaging material is readily thermoformed into containers for medical or dental products or foods and is heat sealable, tough, resistant to chemicals, and resistant to cracking and tearing during handling by thermoforming equipment.
