What is HIPS plastic rolls?

HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) plates are impact resistant polystyrene products made of polystyrene by adding polybutyl rubber to it. This polystyrene product joins polystyrene and rubber particles together by adding micron-scale rubber particles and grafting them together. When impacted, the tip stress of crack propagation will be released by the relatively soft rubber particles.

Therefore, the crack propagation is hindered and the impact resistance is improved. In addition to excellent impact resistance, HIPS plastic rolls also have most of the advantages of PS plastic rolls, such as good rigidity, easy processing, high product gloss (gloss 85%), easy coloring, but its tensile strength and transparency are reduced.

Main Advantages Of HIPS Plastic Rolls

• Low static electricity generation, suitable for packaging products that require low static electricity.
• Easy to vacuum forming, and the product has good anti-attack performance.
• It has good hygiene and can directly contact with food without producing harmful substances.
• Easy to color processing can be processed into different colors to produce sheets of different colors.
• Good hardness, this kind of sheet material has better hardness than other sheet materials of the same thickness. After thermoforming, it can be used as a hot and cold drink cup.
• It meets environmental protection requirements and can be recycled and reused. When its waste is incinerated, it does not produce harmful substances that harm the environment.

What are the precautions for storing HIPS plastic rolls?

1. Keep it in a Cool and Dry Place

Store HIPS plastic rolls in a cool, dry environment. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or heat, as prolonged exposure can cause the material to degrade.

2. Avoid Extreme Temperatures

Extreme temperatures can affect the properties of HIPS plastic rolls. Avoid storing the rolls in areas with high temperature variations, as this can lead to warping or other structural issues.

3. Use Vertical Storage

Whenever possible, store the HIPS plastic rolls vertically to prevent sagging or warping. If horizontal storage is necessary, ensure that the rolls are supported evenly along their length.

4. Protect from Dust and Contaminants ​

Cover the HIPS plastic rolls with plastic sheeting or other protective material to prevent dust, dirt, or other contaminants from settling on the surface.

5. Control Humidity

HIPS plastic rolls can absorb moisture from the air, leading to a loss of quality. Store the HIPS plastic rolls in an area with controlled humidity levels. If possible, use a dehumidifier to maintain a dry environment.

6. Avoid Contact with Solvents and Chemicals

Keep the HIPS plastic rolls away from solvents, chemicals, or other substances that may react with or degrade the material.

7. Use Core Supports

If the HIPS plastic rolls have a core, use core supports to maintain their shape. This is especially important for preventing deformation over time.

8. Label and Organize

Label the HIPS plastic rolls with relevant information such as size, thickness, and date of manufacture. Organize them in a way that makes it easy to identify and access the specific HIPS plastic rolls you need.

9. Regular Inspection

Periodically inspect the stored HIPS plastic rolls for any signs of damage or degradation. If you notice any issues, address them promptly to prevent further deterioration.

10. Follow Manufacturer Recommendations

Check the manufacturer’s guidelines for specific recommendations on storage conditions. Different types of HIPS plastic rolls may have slightly different requirements.
