XPS insulation board is one of the most commonly used insulation materials nowadays. Poor quality xps insulation board is not only easy to mold and crack, but also releases toxic gases.
Don't worry, today I will teach you how to choose good quality xps insulation board!
1-Look at the appearance
High-quality xps insulation boards are bright in color, the higher the saturation, the finer the distribution of foam pores
The surface color of inferior xps insualtion boards is gray and dark, the foam pores are coarse and the surface is uneven
2-Smell
Good-quality xps insulation boards use new raw materials and have no pungent odor.
Inferior xps insulation boards use recycled materials, contain harmful substances, and emit pungent odors.
3-Look at the pressing effect
High-quality xps insulation boards have good toughness and high compressive strength, and will not leave dents when pressed
Inferior xps insulation boards have loose texture and low density, and dents will appear when pressed
4-Look at water absorption
High-quality xps insulation boards use closed-cell structures, there are no gaps between the boards, and they will not absorb water and seep water
Inferior xps insulation boards are unstable and have gaps, which are easy to absorb water, leak, and mold
