Application of polystyrene (GPPS, HIPS, EPS) produced by GON in white goods manufacturing
- Application of GPPS (general-purpose polystyrene) in white goods
1.1 Characteristics of GPPS
GPPS has high transparency, good rigidity, and is easy to process. It is suitable for parts that require good appearance and high gloss.
1.2 Main Applications
Refrigerator Liners and Partitions: GPPS's high transparency and good chemical resistance make it suitable for refrigerator internal components such as drawers, partitions, and door shelves.
Microwave Doors and Windows: Due to its transparency and heat resistance, GPPS can be used for microwave observation windows.
Washing Machine Control Panels: GPPS can be used for transparent or translucent panels that require a certain degree of rigidity.
- Application of HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) in White Appliances
2.1 Characteristics of HIPS
HIPS has high impact resistance, good chemical resistance, and can be surface treated (such as spraying, silk-screen printing, etc.), making it one of the most commonly used materials in the home appliance industry.
2.2 Main Applications
Refrigerator Liners: HIPS has become one of the main materials for refrigerator liners due to its excellent impact resistance and low temperature resistance. It can withstand the pressure of food and storage baskets without being brittle due to low temperatures.
Washing Machine Shells and Panels: HIPS has good rigidity and toughness, making it suitable for the shell and control panel of washing machines, ensuring that the product is durable and easy to clean.
Air conditioner shell: HIPS can be used for air conditioner panels, with strong mechanical properties and decorative effects.
- Application of EPS (expandable polystyrene) in white appliances
3.1 Characteristics of EPS
EPS is widely used in home appliance packaging and insulation components due to its excellent cushioning performance, light weight and thermal insulation performance.
3.2 Main applications
Refrigerator insulation layer: EPS has good thermal insulation performance and can be used as insulation material for refrigerator interlayer to improve the energy efficiency ratio of refrigerators and reduce cold loss.
Home appliance transportation packaging: EPS material is light in weight and has strong impact resistance. It can effectively protect the safety of products such as washing machines, air conditioners, and microwave ovens during transportation and reduce the risk of damage.
Water heater insulation layer: EPS can also be used for the insulation layer of electric water heaters to improve thermal efficiency and reduce energy consumption.
