Foam plastic (EPS expanded polystyrene) and expanded polystyrene (XPS extruded polystyrene) are similar at first glance – two main materials that are often used for thermal insulation. Despite the fact that both materials are effective insulators, Stolit foam has its own unique advantages that make it the best choice for insulating your home.<\/p>\n

Therefore, here are some advantages of styrofoam over the polysyrene foam:<\/h2>\n

1. Heat-insulation descriptions:<\/h3>\n

A foam plastic is marked the subzero coefficient of heat-conducting, that allows to keep a heat in building and reduce energy consumption on heating. As compared to polystyrene foam, the white foam plastic of high-density has identical indices of heat-insulation, and at application of graphite raw material – even better.<\/p>\n

2. Lightness of editing:<\/h3>\n

Weight of foam plastic makes transportation and placing of material in place of building more comfortable and easy. A foam plastic is easily cut and processed, which simplifies the process of editing.<\/p>\n

3. Availability and cost:<\/h3>\n

In comparison to Styrofoam, a foam plastic is more accessible on the market with the possibility to choose a necessary thickness, closeness of material and sizes of sheet. And the not high cost of insulation distinguishes him from between other heat-insulation materials.<\/p>\n

4. Vapor permeability:<\/h3>\n

Thanks to its micropores, foam plastic is a vapor-permeable material. The softer the foam, the more vapor permeability it has. Air circulation prevents the formation of condensation, which provokes the appearance of mold and fungi. Due to its closed structure, extruded polystyrene is not vapor permeable, which prevents its use for insulating the walls of the house.<\/p>\n

5. Sound insulation:<\/h3>\n

EPS foam has good sound insulation properties, which allows you to reduce the level of sound interference in the building. It is often used to fill voids in walls and floors.<\/p>\n

6. Environmental friendliness:<\/h3>\n

Styrofoam is produced using steam, can be produced using secondary raw materials and is recyclable, which makes it a more environmentally friendly option compared to Styrofoam, which is produced with large gas and electricity costs.<\/p>\n

7. Flammability:<\/h3>\n

Styrofoam belongs to the flammability group of building materials G1 (self-extinguishing, does not support combustion). In turn, the extruded product belongs to the flammability group G4 (high level of flammability). This limits its use in the insulation of buildings according to fire regulations and provokes high toxic fumes during combustion.
\nConsidering the above advantages, it can be concluded that foam plastic is a profitable and effective choice for building insulation, especially in cases where the importance of thermal insulation and economy are key factors when choosing a building material.<\/p>\n
