Fire retardant expanded Polystyrene SABIC® EPS550FF 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. SABIC® EPS550FF is an expandable polystyrene grade supplied in free-flowing beads containing pentane (CFC free) as a foaming agent.
Melt Flow Index (MFI) at 230°C / 2.16 kg, density, polymer melting point and tensile strength. The full Technical Data Sheet (TDS) is available on request.
Suited to injection moulding and forming applications such as rigid containers, caps and engineering parts that demand high stiffness and dimensional stability.
