BASF Neopor® P 5200 Expandable Polystyrene
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polystyrene (PS); Expanded Polystyrene (EPS)
Material Notes:	Description: Expandable polystyrene (EPS) containing uniformly distributed flame retardant (blowing agent: pentane). Remarks: For the production of silver-gray foams having a considerably higher thermal-insulation capacity than the usual EPS insulating materials. Applications: Blocks non flame-retardant, significant improved thermal conductivity at low densities. Information provided by BASF
