Features of expanded polystyrene foam sheet

Expanded polystyrene foam sheet performance characteristics:

1. polystyrene foam board light. Adoption of standards for the EPS board density 18 ~ 22kg / m3, the European EPS board using only 15kg / m3 of;

2. low thermal conductivity of polystyrene foam board. Due to its mission pore structure filled with air, preventing the spread of air to the thermal conductivity of about 0.039;

3. since the polystyrene foam sheet in 98% of the space is filled with air, have the ability to respond by changing the shape of the outside world and to buffer the impact, good impact resistance;

4. low water absorption. Studies have shown that humidity will affect the thermal and mechanical properties of materials, low water absorption materials help to maintain these properties;

5. recyclable polystyrene foam board. The degree of recovery is the plastic in the highest;

6. the energy consumption in the whole life cycle of plastic products in the lowest.

Expanded polystyrene foam sheet, also known as foam board, EPS board is a white object by the expandable polystyrene beads containing a volatile liquid blowing agent, by heating after an advance in the mold thermoformed, having a fine closing the structural characteristics of the hole. Polystyrene foam board surface was smooth, with full obturator internal honeycomb structure, excellent thermal insulation (thermal conductivity 0.043W / MK), noise, moisture resistance, and high pressure, light, non-absorbent, airtight , wear-resistant, non-degradable characteristics; sheet with a knife can easily cut, widely used in roof, walls, floors, cold storage and other projects. Polystyrene has a wide application in many fileds,  it is worth for us to develop polystyrene recycling industry.
