Quick answer

EPS and EPP molds deliver light, impact-resistant parts at a low cost per unit. See the main advantages and how aluminum and bronze tooling compare.

EPS &EPP equipment construction molds have the advantages of structural safety and reliability. Strong overall structural integrity and good seismic resistance. In 2015, the Provincial Department of Housing and Urban Rural Development released local standards and EPS &EPP equipment module construction application sets. Since last year, the company has promoted 600000 square meters of low rise buildings and 2 million square meters of high-rise buildings in our province. This technology is widely used in cold provinces such as Heilongjiang and Inner Mongolia, with years of experience in high-rise and multi story building applications, and currently has good quality. The insulation material is durable and will not come off. During the construction of this project, the EPS module will be assembled first, and then concrete will be poured to form a composite wall, achieving the same insulation service life as the structure. Conventional buildings will not experience insulation material hollowing or falling off within 15 years, thus achieving the goal of integrating insulation and structure.
Waterborne polyurethane resin has many polar groups, such as polyurethane bonds, urea bonds, and ionic bonds. It has good adhesion to various substrates, especially polar and porous substrates. Similar to solvent types, different matrices have different binding strengths. It can be seen that water-based polyurethane adhesive has good adhesion to soft PVC containing more plasticizers.
Due to the excellent thermal insulation performance of polyurethane boards. It can reduce the thickness of building protective structures and increase indoor usable area. Not easy to break. Strong resistance to deformation. A stable and secure outcome. It is basically a closed cell structure. The pore structure of polyurethane insulation board is stable. It not only has excellent thermal insulation performance, but also has good frost resistance and sound absorption performance. Under normal use and maintenance conditions, the average service life of rigid polyurethane insulation structures can reach over 30 years. Ensure that the structure is not damaged by external factors such as dry, wet, or electrical corrosion, insect, fungal or algal growth, or rodent damage under normal usage conditions during its service life. However, the significant reduction in heating and cooling costs will offset this growth. High overall cost-effectiveness. Although the price of rigid polyurethane foam is higher than that of other corrosive insulating materials.
The thin material coefficient plastering external wall insulation module is mainly composed of polymer mortar, insulation layer, protective layer with crack resistance and waterproof function, protective reinforcement accessories, alkali resistant glass fiber mesh, anchoring components, brackets, etc. Corner protectors and other insulation mortar are key technical materials for this system. This article provides a detailed analysis of polymer insulation mortar.
Nowadays, in order to improve production efficiency and reduce production costs, many enterprises will purchase automated EPS &EPP mold to better achieve their development. In many EPS &EPP devices, it is easy to choose a production equipment for the molding machine. Due to its good performance and simple operation, EPS &EPP equipment has a considerable sales volume in the domestic market, and many enterprises are now using it.
