What Is the Difference Between Extruded Board and Foam Board?

 Extruded plate (XPS), based on polystyrene resin as raw material, through a special process of continuous extrusion foaming molding hardboard, its internal structure for independent closed bubbles, is one kind has high pressure, water absorption, moisture, breathable, lightweight, corrosion resistance, long service life, low coefficient of thermal conductivity, excellent environmental protection heat preservation material performance. Extruded polystyrene (XPS) insulation board is widely used in wall insulation, flat concrete roof, and steel structure roof insulation, low-temperature storage ground, parking platform, airport runway, highway and other fields of moisture-proof insulation, and control ground frost heave.

1. Excellent and long-lasting thermal insulation

The extruded board has a thermal conductivity of 0.028w/MK, which has the characteristics of high thermal resistance and low linear expansion rate. Its thermal conductivity is far lower than other insulation materials such as EPS board, foamed polyurethane, insulation mortar, cement perlite, etc. At the same time, because the material has a stable chemical structure and physical structure, it ensures the durability and stability of the material's thermal insulation performance.

2. Superior water resistance and moisture resistance

The extruded board has a tight closed-cell structure. The molecular structure of polystyrene itself does not absorb water, and there are no gaps on the front and back of the board. Therefore, the water absorption rate is low, and the moisture and penetration resistance is good.

3. High-strength compression resistance

Because the foam structure is closely connected and there is no gap between the walls, the extruded board has high compressive strength, and the blisters remain unchanged even for a long time. Therefore, it can be used for parking platforms, airport runways, highways, and other fields with good impact resistance.

4. Anti-corrosion, durable

General rigid foam insulation materials are prone to aging after a few years of use, which will result in water absorption and performance degradation. The extruded board has excellent anti-corrosion, anti-aging, and heat preservation properties, and can still maintain its excellent performance under high water vapor pressure, and the service life can reach 30-40 years.

5. Lightweight, high hardness

The fully closed-cell foamed structure of the extruded board is lightweight, and the uniform honeycomb structure results in high rigidity, but it is not as brittle as polyurethane foam and phenolic foam, so it is not easy to be damaged. It is not only easy to handle and install, but also to cut Easy, it will not affect the bearing capacity of the structure when used as roof insulation.

Six, high-quality environmental protection type　

The extruded board will not decompose and mildew, will not volatilize harmful substances and have stable chemical properties. At the same time, in the production process, environmentally friendly raw materials are used, no harmful gas is generated, no wastewater is generated, and the formed solid waste can be recycled and reused. It is a high-quality environmentally friendly product.

It can be seen that as a floor heating insulation material, the performance of the extruded board is better than that of polystyrene foam board, but the price is higher.

Do You Know What the Use of Glass Wool Insulation Material Is?

  From the present day, we can see that   Glass Wool   insulation material is used in many aspects of daily life. Its thermal insulation properties make it widely used in daily life or work. The most common is that in colder winters, people can use this product to wrap their own water pipes. This can ensure that their water pipes are not frozen, and then the water between them can be kept flowing for as long as possible.  Glass Wool Because of its shearability, glass wool insulation materials can be trimmed according to their own needs, and products of different sizes can be cut and used in different places. For example, in this relatively cold place in the Northeast, people can wrap this product on their own roofs, make their houses adhere to a certain temperature, and fully play the role of heat insulation of this product, bringing comfort and comfort to their lives. convenient. In addition, glass wool insulation materials are also used more locally. With the extensive use of this in

Neoprene vs EPDM: What's the Difference?

  Both neoprene and   EPDM   are materials used in the manufacture of conveyor belt systems. While neoprene is most commonly used in the industry, many companies are turning to EPDM because using it overcomes many of the challenges associated with using neoprene.   What is neoprene? Neoprene is made through the polymerization of chlorine. Characterised by its chemical stability, flexibility over a wide range of temperatures and resistance to degradation, the material was originally intended as a petroleum-based alternative to natural rubber.   Its durability and flexibility make neoprene suitable for a wide range of everyday products - such as sports and medical equipment, technical coverings and sleeves, diving suits and safety gloves - as well as for a variety of outdoor applications - including as hoses, gaskets, seals, and gaskets. -including as hoses, gaskets, seals, coatings and linings.   Huamei  EPDM rubber foams  include semi-closed cell supersoft and supersoft foams; closed c
