Styropor® F 395 E by BASF is a flame retardant, expandable polystyrene (EPS) block molding garde with 4.5% pentane content. Exhibits low weight, good shock absorption, good thermal insulation performance- and conductivity. Offers high compressive strength, outstanding impact absorption and moisture resistance. Designed for processing by foams in three steps- pre-expansion, intermediate storage, and expansion stages. During the pre-expansion stage, the compact raw material is transformed into closed-cell foam which is characterized by low energy consumption and short cycle times. After an appropriate intermediate storage time, EPS is expanded in conventional block molds to make foams. Typical applications of Styropor® F 395 E include technical moldings, insulated concrete forms (ICF), ceiling-, attic- and steep roof insulation.

Styropor®
Plastics and elastomers supplied by BASF
Styropor® grades are EPS (expandable polystyrene) by BASF. They are produced by BMB (biomass balance approach). This helps to conserve fossil resources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. They are majorly used in the construction of buildings.
Key benefits of Styropor® brand include:
- Excellent thermal insulation capacity
- High compressive strength
- Excellent shock absorption
- Insensitive to moisture
