What is Wall Insulation Expanded Polystyrene?
Wall Insulation Expanded Polystyrene is a lightweight, white, and round material made scientifically by the foaming process. In spite of the fact the material is very light, Wall Insulation Expanded Polystyrene is an indispensable one in the exterior wall insulation mortar.
Wall Insulation Expanded Polystyrene is made of Daruwin F-series EPS foamed granules that are light in weight, have a well-closed cell structure, are aging-resistant, and possess good thermal insulation properties. Besides saving energy from the wall, it significantly improves the fluidity, strength, and workability of the exterior wall insulation mortar. The foaming ratio of Wall Insulation Expanded Polystyrene is from 40 to 70 times, is light in weight, has low water absorption, and stable compressive strength, thus greatly enhancing the overall energy-saving effect of the insulation system.
Where can Wall Insulation Expanded Polystyrene be used?
Wall Insulation Expanded Polystyrene is a very versatile product, starting from the use of exterior wall insulation mortar to building energy-saving projects. When mixed with cement and additives, White Polystyrene material for External Wall Insulation can be used to fabricate a lightweight insulation layer which is easier to install, less cracking can be expected, and it is one of the most commonly used materials in exterior wall insulation. It is especially good for projects in the north where winters are extremely cold and the projects have the purpose of insulation level improvement. Besides, it is put into practice quite a lot in old building renovation works as well since White Polystyrene material for External Wall Insulation being light in weight doesn’t add extra load to the existing walls and installation can be done more flexibly.
Why is White Polystyrene material for External Wall Insulation suitable for exterior wall insulation?
1. White Polystyrene material for External Wall Insulation is a product with a foaming ratio of 40-70 times, which makes it extremely lightweight. If you take the same volume of material, it weighs less, thus, when used as an insulation mortar, the load on the wall is reduced to a great extent.
2. White Polystyrene material for External Wall Insulation is characterized by a high rate of closed-cell structure and is non-absorbent, thus, insulation layer detachment or performance change caused by long-term moisture cannot occur.
3. White Polystyrene material for External Wall Insulation is a material with low thermal conductivity and strong insulation capabilities. It significantly contributes to the overall system heat insulation effect when it is mixed into the mortar.
4. White Polystyrene material for External Wall Insulation is a material with good construction adaptability and compatibility with various adhesive powders and cements. Besides, it has good fluidity which makes it simple to deal with complicated wall surfaces, corners, and internal angles.
5. Despite being light, White EPS Polystyrene Granules Raw Material possesses strength. The compressive strength of several models (F103-F106) is S≥6-8 kg/cm², and their density is stable (U≤18 kg/m³), thus, it is possible to make a flexible choice depending on the requirements of the project.
Product Parameters of White EPS Polystyrene Beads Foam
| Model Number | Particle Size (mm) | Expansion Ratio (Times) | Compressive Strength (kg/cm²) | Density (kg/m³) |
| F103 | 1–2 | 70–85 | ≥6 | ≤18 |
| F104 | 0.7–1.0 | 60–70 | ≥7 | ≤18 |
| F105 | 0.6–0.9 | 50–65 | ≥8 | ≤18 |
| F106 | 0.4–0.7 | 35–50 | ≥8 | ≤18 |
In a comparison of physical performance, White EPS Polystyrene Granules Raw Material granules appear to be the most advantageous in terms of material. Their closed-cell rate is more than 90%, which makes their internal structure very stable and is the main factor for their outstanding insulation capacity. The water absorption rate of White EPS Polystyrene Granules Raw Material is also less than 2% at 25℃, thus it will not become heavier or its performance will not deteriorate even if it is exposed to wind and rain for a long time. Besides, it shows good resistance to high temperatures and keeps normal performance at 65℃. White EPS Polystyrene Granules Raw Material is uniformly shaped and has good flowability, which means that the distribution will be more even when it is mixed with mortar, thus the construction will be made simple. We can also adjust the density and particle size range of White EPS Polystyrene Granules Raw Material to meet customer requirements if the project has special requirements.
