Extir D 3000 AE is a flame-retardant expandable polystyrene in the form of spherical beads of medium particle size, containing pentane as blowing agent.
Extir does not contain CFC or HCFC.
Extir D 3000 AE is used for production of shaped mouldings with sections higher than 8 mm or medium density blocks. This grade is characterised by fast moulding cycles, good fusion and low energy needs combined with a high mechanical strength and a good surface finishing.
Extir D 3000 AE is used mainly in medium section, medium / high density packaging where, for legislative or safety reasons, the use of a flame retardant material is required. It is also suitable for the production of skin moulded articles.
Typical applications are:
- industrial packaging, e.g. cathode ray tube protection
- medium-high density blocks for thermal insulation
- moulded panels for underfloor heating
- moulded insulating drainage panels
- moulded or block-cut building components.
