What is EPS Expanded Polystyrene
EPS or Expanded Polystyrene is known as a white light weight material in which small white air-filled balls are pressed together to a plate which makes a terrible and irritating noise when rubbed over each-other. That is how we all know EPS. From a more chemical prospective, Polystyrene has the formula (C8H8)n, yet this will not really help you or me. Our main concern is the thermal value seeing we will use it for temperature protection in buildings or in thermal packaging.
Thermal value of EPS
The thermal value of EPS is depending on the density (standard between 11 to 35kg/m³) which can be tailor made in the Krautz-Temax EPS manufacturing. The thermal conductivity is measured according to EN12667 in which the standard value ranges around 0,035W/m.K. Seeing that Krautz-Temax can produce EPS tailor made, we can offer you the specific insulation value that you need. You can find the different thermal EPS characteristics per product type in our product overview (PDF file available on request)
