Product Overview and Core Technical Specifications
Polystyrene is a plastic resin. It is widely used in industries. Polystyrene has rigidity is lightweight and has outstanding moldability. It also has chemical inertness. There are three types of Polystyrene: General Purpose Polystyrene (GPPS) High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS) and Expanded Polystyrene (EPS). Each type is used for industrial applications.
Our Polystyrene resin is made by Shandong Hualu Hengsheng Chemical. It has molecular stability, high surface gloss and uniform physical properties. This Polystyrene resin resists chemical corrosion. It supports high-precision injection molding and extrusion processing. It maintains performance across standard temperature ranges. Our products comply with industrial standards, including RoHS and REACH.
