XPS extruded board

Extruded board, full name of extruded polystyrene foam board, also known as XPS board. It is a board made of polystyrene resin and other additives through extrusion process, with a continuous and uniform surface layer and closed cell honeycomb structure. This material has the characteristics of high compressive strength, lightweight, non absorbent, non breathable but wear-resistant, and resistant to degradation. And it has a light texture, easy to use, no mold growth, and good corrosion resistance. Not only can it be used as an insulation material, but it can also effectively prevent water and moisture, providing protection for situations such as water leakage, condensation, and freezing/thawing cycles.

Extruded polystyrene board is mainly made of polystyrene material. Extruded polystyrene board has the advantages of high compressive strength, low water absorption rate, light weight, easy construction, good insulation effect, long service life, good corrosion resistance, and good fire resistance.

1. Thermal Insulation

Due to its high heat resistance coefficient, few linear structures, and low expansion rate, as well as its peak pit structure with a closed cell rate of over 99%, a straight void layer is formed, effectively avoiding heat loss caused by air flow and achieving long-lasting and stable insulation effect. Extruded polystyrene board is currently the most effective building insulation material.

2. High strength compressive strength

Due to its unique internal structure, the board has extremely high compressive strength and impact resistance, with a compressive strength of over 700Kp. It can withstand ground loads from various systems and is widely used in various fields.

3. Waterproof performance

An important factor in measuring the insulation performance of insulation materials is their water absorption rate. Once the insulation material absorbs water, its insulation performance will weaken. At lower temperatures, water can easily freeze when it enters the material board, causing a structural change in the plastic board and a decrease in its resistance and insulation performance. The chemical molecular structure of the medium dry board itself does not absorb water and has a stable structure without gaps, so there will be no water leakage, infiltration, frosting, condensation or other situations like other materials.

4. Stability and corrosion resistance

The structure of extruded polystyrene board is stable, so even if it is used for a long time, it will not age, decompose, or produce harmful substances. Its chemical properties are extremely stable and will not degrade due to water absorption and corrosion, causing its performance to decline. It can still maintain its superior performance in high temperature environments, and the service life of extruded insulation board can reach about 60 years.
