El poliestireno (Polystyrene, abreviado PS) es un polímero sintetizado a partir del monómero estireno mediante una reacción de polimerización por adición radical, cuya fórmula química es (C8H8)n. Es un termoplástico incoloro y transparente con una temperatura de transición vítrea superior a 100°C, por lo que suele utilizarse para fabricar diversos envases desechables que deben soportar la temperatura del agua hirviendo, y fiambreras de espuma desechables.
Impact resistant polystyrene (HIPS)
Impact-resistant polystyrene is an impact-resistant polystyrene product produced by adding polybutyl rubber particles to polystyrene. This polystyrene product will add micron-sized rubber particles and connect the polystyrene and rubber particles together by grafting. When subjected to an impact, the tip stress of the crack propagation will be released by the relatively soft rubber particles. Therefore, the propagation of cracks is hindered and the impact resistance is improved.
Polystyrene (PS) includes ordinary polystyrene, expanded polystyrene (EPS), high impact polystyrene (HIPS) and syndiotactic polystyrene (SPS). Ordinary polystyrene resin is non-toxic, odorless, colorless transparent particles, glass-like brittle material, its products have extremely high transparency, light transmittance can reach more than 90%, good electrical insulation performance, easy to color, and process Good fluidity, good rigidity and good chemical resistance. The disadvantages of ordinary polystyrene are brittleness, low impact strength, stress cracking, poor heat resistance, and boiling water resistance.
Impact-resistant polystyrene is an amorphous polymer formed by graft polymerization of styrene monomer and rubber, or a physical blend of polystyrene and rubber (usually polybutadiene rubber). The resulting polymer has toughness, usually white (there are also transparent grades), extrusion and molding is very easy. Its toughness is mainly determined by the ratio and usage of rubber components. The representative performance of impact resistance PS is: bending strength and tensile strength of 13.8-48.3MPa (different with the content of rubber and additives); elongation 10-60%; gloss 5-100%. The visual transparency ranges from excellent to poor, the shrinkage rate is about 0.006, and the thermal expansion coefficient is the same as that of transparent PS. Impact-resistant PS has no change in performance after γ-ray sterilization and irradiation, and has the same solvent resistance as transparent PS. The melt index of impact-resistant PS is 1-10g/min, and the Vicat softening point is 215°F. The commercial production of impact-resistant polystyrene with enhanced properties has broad market prospects. Some of the existing special grades include: ultra-high gloss grade, high transparency grade, abrasion resistance grade, environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR), high modulus grade, low gloss grade, and grades with low residual monomer styrene content .
Las características más destacadas del poliestireno resistente a los impactos son su fácil procesamiento, su excelente estabilidad dimensional, su elevada resistencia a los impactos y su gran rigidez. En el caso del HIPS, sólo es resistente al calor. Existen ciertos límites en la permeabilidad al oxígeno, la estabilidad a la luz ultravioleta y la resistencia al aceite. Química y rendimiento El poliestireno resistente al impacto se fabrica disolviendo caucho de polidieno en monómero de estireno antes de la polimerización. Aunque el método de polimerización en suspensión puede utilizarse para preparar HIPS, el método de polimerización a granel se utiliza actualmente en la producción industrial de HIPS. En el proceso de polimerización a granel, la mezcla de monómero de estireno/caucho/aditivo pasa a través de una serie de reactores con una tasa de conversión de 70-90%. En la reacción de polimerización, es necesario calentar o añadir un iniciador para completar la reacción y, a continuación, calentar al vacío para eliminar los monómeros residuales volátiles de la resina y, por último, granular y vender.
The impact polystyrene performance test is divided into several levels according to its relative impact strength:
The impact strength of notched cantilever beams of medium impact resistance grade is generally 0.6-1./i;
The impact resistance of the high impact resistance grade is 1.5-2.5ftlb/in;
The impact strength of extremely high impact resistance is> 2./in
Some HIPS grades have an impact strength value of up to 6./in, but this resin is usually used in blended resins to improve the impact resistance of low-strength grade resins.
Other important performance testing matters needing attention of standard HIPS are as follows: bending strength 13.8-55.1MPa; tensile strength 13.8-41.4MPa; elongation at break 15-75%; density 1.035-1.04 g/ml; Vicat softening point 185- 220°F.
The only industrially mixed HIPS alloy is its blend with polyphenylene ether. The heat resistance and toughness of this blend are outstanding, but the product price is much higher than that of HIPS alone.
The continuous development of polystyrene technology enables the production plant to produce grades with more outstanding performance than standard PS. Many properties of polystyrene cannot be achieved at the same time. If you want to improve the impact strength, you have to sacrifice gloss. Some new resins appearing at present have the glossiness of ABS and also have high toughness. Some grades, such as those that can withstand various oils and fats when packaging food, and chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) foaming agents when used in refrigerators, have also been developed. Flame-retardant grade (UL V-0 and UL 5-V), impact-resistant polystyrene has been produced and widely used in TV housings, business machines and electrical products. The processing operation of these resins is easier than many flame retardant engineering resins, and the price is lower.
