What is the difference between EPS and EPP Material?

2023-04-21

EPS foam: EPS molded foam, also known as polystyrene foam, is a light polymer.

EPP foam: EPP foam, also known as foamed polypropylene foam, is the abbreviation of a new type of foam plastic.

2. Different application industries

EPS foam: used in packaging industry and external wall insulation industry.

EPP foam: used in automobile industry and packaging industry.

3. Different performance

EPS foam: It has special effects of light weight, heat insulation, sound absorption and shock absorption.

EPP foam: EPP foam has light specific gravity, good elasticity, strong earthquake resistance and compression resistance, high deformation recovery rate, good absorption performance, oil resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance, resistance to various chemical solvents, non water absorption, insulation, heat resistance.

Comparison between EPS foam and EPP foam

The biggest difference between EPS foam and EPP foam is that their characteristics are different. EPS has low cost, brittle characteristics, and is easy to break, but its protective effect is very good. The cost of EPP is very high, and its biggest feature is its strong toughness and continuous flexibility. Except for this difference, the rest are basically the same as Polylon.
