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.

Glass Wool Solves Noise Pollution

  The development of society requires the advancement of many things, and every time something useful is researched, society will make a small step forward. What kind of role a product plays has a great impact on us, and our lives also need their help. Many people literally understand  Glass Wool  as a kind of cotton, in fact, it is an artificial inorganic fiber, which belongs to glass. So which features are more helpful to us? In fact, different functions can play a role in different places. The main thing of glass wool is its sound absorption function. The noise problem is a problem that will occur in many cities now. Therefore, in order to solve these noise pollutions, people have also researched various sound insulation materials, such as glass wool,  Glass Wool Pipe , etc. Especially now that there are more and more cars, no matter whether it is day or night, there are many whistle sounds. At this time, I went to install some sound-absorbing materials on the roa...

High-temperature glass wool

High-temperature glass wool Refractory glass wool  with light quality 、 durability and insulation performance is generally used in power station flue warm air duct and Steam Pipeline .It also used in the insulation for the Pipe with the diameter exceeding 300mm and noise reduction for high temperature mediums such as boilers, reaction vessels ,shells of tank ,piping etc. in power plant, chemical industry and pharmanceutical industry. power station glass wool ; boiler glass wool Huamei energy saving technology group is located in the central zone of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Province.

Demand For Glass Wool In The Market

Glass Wool  has good molding, low thermal conductivity, thermal insulation, and good attraction. It is widely used in building insulation. It is used for thermal insulation, sound absorption and noise reduction of industrial buildings, warehouses, public facilities, exhibition centers, shopping malls, and various indoor playgrounds, sports venues and other buildings. Glass Wool Glass wool insulation materials are also very helpful for building energy saving. With statistics, glass wool can achieve energy saving rate of 55%. Glass wool is based on the principles of vacuum insulation and microporous insulation. Using glass fiber as the core material, the thermal conductivity can reach 0.036W / (mK) or less. The thermal insulation performance is 6 to 10 times that of traditional thermal insulation materials. Products from raw materials collection to the entire production process are combined with environmental protection requirements, non-toxic and harmless; not only can ...
