About EPS Foam

Expanded Polystyrene Properties

• Thermal Properties (insulation): EPS has low thermal conductivity because of its closed-cell structure comprising 98% air. This air caught inside the cells is a poor thermal conductor and subsequently, give the foam its superb
• Mechanical strength: Flexible production makes EPS flexible in power, adjusted to suit the particular application. EPS with high compressive strength is utilized for weighty burden-bearing applications, while for void shaping, EPS with a lower compressive strength can be used. By and large, strength qualities increment with thickness; anyway, EPS foam bundling’s padding attributes are influenced by the math of the formed part and, less significantly, by bead size and handling conditions, just as density.
• Dimensional Stability: EPS offers outstanding dimensional soundness, remaining virtually unaffected inside a broad scope of ambient factors. EPS foam’s most extreme dimensional difference can be relied upon to be under 2%, which places EPS as per ASTM Test Method D2126.
• Electrical Properties: The dielectric strength of EPS is around 2KV/mm. Its dielectric steady estimated in the frequency range of 100-400 MHZ, and net densities from 20-40 kg/m3 lies between 1.02 and 1.04. Formed EPS can be treated with antistatic agents to follow the electronic industry and military packaging specifications.
• Water Absorption: EPS isn’t hygroscopic. In any event, when submerged in water, it assimilates just a limited quantity of water. As the cell dividers are waterproof, water can infiltrate the froth through the fused beads’ little channels.
