Polystyrene

Polystyrene is a versatile thermoplastic polymer known for its lightweight, rigid, and transparent properties. It is widely used in various industries due to its ease of processing, affordability, and ability to be molded into a wide range of shapes and forms. Polystyrene is prized for its excellent insulation properties, making it ideal for packaging materials, disposable food containers, and insulation panels in construction. It is also used in consumer goods such as household appliances, electronic components, and toys. Additionally, polystyrene’s clarity and ability to hold intricate designs make it a popular choice for packaging electronics and medical equipment. Its versatility, coupled with its cost-effectiveness and recyclability, continues to make polystyrene a valuable material in modern manufacturing and packaging applications. As of the latest data available, global production capacity for polystyrene (PS) is estimated to be around 22-24 million metric tons annually. This capacity is distributed among various regions globally, with significant production occurring in Asia, particularly in China, followed by North America and Europe. Production capacities can vary over time based on market demand, technological advancements, and economic factors influencing manufacturing capabilities.

Arij as the Polystyrene Supplier

GPPS
General Purpose Polystyrene (GPPS) is renowned for its exceptional transparency and glossy appearance. It boasts high tensile strength, water resistance, and a transparent color profile. GPPS also offers thermal insulation, resistance to inorganic chemicals, rigidity, ease of handling, and high optical quality. Its good dimensional stability further enhances its suitability for applications such as disposable cups, food containers, and injection molding.

EPS
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), also known as poliexpan or white cork, is a lightweight foamed plastic material primarily composed of 98% air. Derived from polystyrene, EPS exhibits high mechanical strength, moisture resistance, and excellent insulating and shock-absorbing properties. It is widely used in the production of low, medium, and high-density blocks. EPS finds extensive application in industries where lightweight, durable, and thermal insulating materials are required.

HIPS
High-impact polystyrene (HIPS) is produced by blending standard Polystyrene (GPPS) with rubber, which is grafted onto the polymer. This additive enhances HIPS with superior mechanical properties compared to GPPS, including increased impact strength, dimensional stability, and thermal resistance. HIPS is utilized in various applications such as packaging containers, refrigerator doors and cabinet liners, cups, computer keyboards, and toys.
