E series Technical Data Sheet (TDS)


1. Composition of E series
Expandable Polystyrene (EPS) is suspension polymerized from styrene monomer, further more
dipped with blowing agent, molecular formula: (C8H8) n,
Content of Polystyrene: (CAS NO 9003-53-6) 93 - 96%
Content of Pentane: (CAS NO 109-66-0) 4 - 7%
2. Characteristics of E series
E series is a standard grade with wide application, high strength, pretty surface, and environmental
friendly; no added of additives included such as toluene, dimethlybenzene, ethylbenzene, and does
not contain prohibited substances; it also meet standards of EU REACH and ROHS.

*The density available depends on the type and equipment of pre expansion
3. Aging Time:
(Aging time will be different due to different density, different temperature, and different humidity.)
If the aging time is too long, it is hard to get a good confusion during molding and when pentane
content is less than 4%. If aging time is too short, it will result a longer cooling time, bad for the
improvement of production efficiency. Thus, aging time shall be adjusted according to the expansion
density required and aging temperature.
