EPS -STRIPOR
Expanded Polystyrene Rigid Foam (EPS-Expanded Polystyrene Foam) is a typically white thermoplastic material with closed pores in foam form, obtained from petroleum by polymerization of styrene monomer. In special productions, there are also products in gray/black tones where the particles are processed to reflect long wave radiation. In EPS products obtained by inflating and fusing polystyrene particles, the inflating gas used for inflating the particles and obtaining foam is 'Pentane'. Pentane, which is an organic component, is replaced by air in a very short time during and after production, after allowing the formation of many small pores in the particles. The released pentane gas turns into CO2 and water vapor-H2O, which are already in the atmosphere. With the release of pentane, stagnant air is trapped in the large number of small closed-pore cells (3-6 billion in 1 m3 EPS, depending on the density) in the material. 98% of the material is still air; 2% is polystyrene.
After the material is supplied as a raw material in the form of small particles, it goes through the pre-blowing process. At this time, the pentane gas in the particles replaces the air and the desired density of the material is achieved to a large extent at this stage. Then, the expanded particles resting in a special silo are allowed to fuse with each other in the mold with the help of water vapor and the material gains its properties. As a result of the fusion of the grains with each other, a continuous mass of polygons fused with each other without gaps is formed in the appearance of a honeycomb. The next production steps vary according to the usage area of the material (for heat insulation purposes or as packaging material) (+).
As it is known, stagnant air is the most economical, environmentally friendly and excellent thermal insulation material known. The superior thermal insulation properties of EPS are due to the stagnant air contained in its many particles. EPS, which is one of the few materials that provide the best thermal insulation available in the world, is the only material that provides the same performance more economically than other thermal insulation materials used in our country.
Thanks to its flexible structure, shock absorption and mechanical strength, the material is used in the packaging of many products for protection and prevents the packaged products from being damaged. In addition, special types of EPS are also used for packaging food materials, thanks to both its thermal insulation and protection properties.
The fact that its production is not energy-intensive is another important reason why it is economical despite its superior technical features. In addition to effective mechanical strength, the replacement of the inflator gas with air in a very short time ensures that the performance of the product remains constant throughout its lifetime. Its thickness does not decrease, its thermal conductivity does not increase, its mechanical properties do not change, and its other properties do not deteriorate over time.
EPS is produced in desired densities according to the usage area. Since its properties can be changed in the desired direction, it does not cause material waste and unnecessary cost increases. Generally in densities of 15-30 kg/m3 for thermal insulation; It is produced in densities of 20-100 kg/m3 for use as packaging material. As a finished product, EPS also has features such as lightness, easy workability and usability in the manufacture of other materials and composite products.In addition to all these features, EPS is an environmentally friendly material because it is a 100% recyclable material and the materials it contains do not harm the atmosphere and ozone layer. Special types of EPS are also a product that can be used even in the packaging of foodstuffs and is not harmful to human health.
EPS products are used extensively in the form of sheets, pipes or pre-shaped elements, in the heat and sound insulation of buildings and in the packaging industry. The use of EPS products as wall material in buildings, the insulation of cold storage rooms, the construction of highways in cold regions, the reinforcement of floors, the construction of life buoys and life jackets for ships; It has unlimited usage areas in all applications where lightness, strength, easy shaping, easy application and low thermal conductivity are important.
The usage area of EPS as packaging material is very wide, it is produced in the desired size and shape by injection machine. These special molds made of aluminum are designed separately for each product. EPS coming out of the mold becomes a ready-to-use packaging material.
EPS is a material with high technical features, it is not affected by moisture, water, UV rays or compression, it does not deteriorate, it does not lose its mechanical and technical performance properties over time, it is an environmentally friendly material since it requires low density energy during production and is recycled. It can be processed in the desired shape and form, specific to the job.

ANTISTATIC / ESD PACKAGING PRODUCTS
Electrostatic discharge is the sudden movement of charged particles from one object to another in contact between two objects. In other words, static electricity is the vibration that occurs when two objects, both of which have an electrical charge, come into contact with each other. The most common example is the minor shock you get when you touch something conductive after walking on a carpet.
ESD has two main causes. First, it separates when the two materials touch each other and then when you walk on the carpet and your feet first touch the carpet and then separate from it. This is called tribocharging and causes a gradual increase in electrical charge. Then, when you touch something conductive, you feel the shock as the charge leaves your body. Another cause of ESD is a process called electrostatic induction. This happens when a product with an electrical charge is placed next to another item. If the second substance is conductive—that is, conducting electricity—and still insulated—meaning it has insufficient contact with the ground to discharge its electrical charge—it starts to build up a charge. Then, as with overcharging, when it touches something conductive, there will be a flow of electricity from it to the other element: a discharge of static electricity. While static electricity may seem harmless compared to other types of electrical current, the reality is that it can extremely damage electrical components and cause fires or explosions when it enters flammable liquids or gases. This is true even for very minor ESD events;
