Styrocore Pipe Lagging (Expanded Polystyrene) is made from a polymer permeated with a foaming agent which, when exposed to steam, creates a uniform closed cell structure, highly resistant to heat flow and moisture penetration. EPS is 98% air and only 2% EPS, which means it acts as a fantastic thermal insulator because of its high air content.
Features of EPS
- Low thermal conductivity
- low permeability to water vapor
- low water absorption
- high dimensional stability
- good mechanical strength
