SABIC EPS 550FF Expandable Polystyrene

Product Description: Fire retardant expanded Polystyrene EPS 550FF is manufactured by the suspension polymerization of styrene monomer. The polymerization is generally carried out in a batch process and it contains a fire retarding additive in the formulation. EPS 550FF is an expandable polystyrene grade supplied in free-flowing beads containing pentane (CFC free) as a foaming agent.Typical Applications: EPS 550FF grade is used for shape molding with wall thickness greater than 10 mm and for block molding with medium-to-high density for thermal insulation in the construction industry. EPS 550FF has retarded ignitability and the moldings made from it will conform to the requirement of DIN 53438 class K1 and K2.Information provided by SABIC.
