  • Polystyrene
    insulation and energy absorption. Copolymers of polystyrene formulated into EPS-type foamable resins provide improved beat tolerance, solvent resistant, or cushioning. Expandable PS foams are produced in a two-stage process. The resin particles are first expanded to the density required...
  • Use of Infrared Imaging Techniques to Understand and Quantify Expanded Polymer Molding Operations and Part Quality (.pdf)
    The manufacture of expanded polystyrene, polypropylene and similar molded parts (automotive bumpers, protective helmets, etc.) requires precise molding control for its vacuum, steaming and subsequent cooling cycles. These are processes where optimal part quality demands a precise amount of steam...
  • From Lubricants to Packaging Materials: ARS Scientists Just Say "No" to Petroleum
    . At various points in the process, the beads puff and expand. That happens, for instance, when the beads are put into the cavity of a heated mold, to press them into the desired shape. Expanded beads will eventually touch one another, creating a strong matrix that's much like the bead matrix of polystyrene...
  • Extrusion Process Creates Dangerous Static: NRD Ionizers Safely Eliminate Problem
    Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is manufactured in a process where it is extruded in a sheet and then "formed" or expanded, using gas that is injected into the material during extrusion. The gas that is released after the EPS is extruded is flammable and can ignite if a static discharge takes place. NRD...
  • Case History: New Feeders Boost EPS Production and Efficiency at Bandex
    Bandex S.A., located in San Luis, Argentina, manufactures disposable containers and plates from expanded polystyrene (EPS). The production line extrudes and thermoforms virgin polystyrene, recycled polystyrene, talc, and masterbatch color pellets. Bandex is the market leader in EPS packaging...
  • Polyolefins
    methods used for expandable polystyrene (EPS). After the beads are expanded (20 to 40 times that of the solid resin) nd conditioned, they are poured into a mold and heated, usually by direct injection of steam. This softens, expands further, nd fuses the particles together, forming a niform, void-free...
  • Building safer seats for Indy racers
    they hit the driver. In the past, drivers would sit on a bag filled with expanded polystyrene beads and resin to create an exact imprint of them in their most comfortable driving position. The entire process took at least 20 hr. And every time a car is in an accident or a driver switches cars, a new...
  • Non-contact Temperature Measurement and Control (.pdf)
    for emissivity compensation. Linearizing circuits can also be used when necessary to remove the fourth power. component from the temperature signal, otherwise the readings produced by an indicator. or recorder would be cramped at the lower end of the temperature scale and expanded at. the top end. The detectors...
  • Packaging Goes Back to Nature
    and electrically neutral and largely insensitive to changes in temperature and humidity. The material is said to outperform vacuum-formed plastics, corrugated cardboard, and expanded polystyrene (EPS), especially when vibration comes into play. These qualities have led to its use in packaging...
  • Fermentation and Cell Culture: Get it Right
    By Angelo De Palma, Ph.D., Contributing Editor Wave has also partnered with Nunc (Rochester, N.Y.), known for its cell culture bottles, to incorporate Nunc's 2DMicroHex carriers, which work similarly to FibraCel, into disposable process bags. 2DMicroHex carriers are flake-like polystyrene hexagons...
