Thermosetting polystyrene board is a kind of insulation material widely used in the construction industry. It is welcomed by the industry for its excellent thermal insulation performance and stable chemical properties. This article will give a detailed introduction to thermosetting polystyrene board, including its characteristics, application fields and construction methods.

First, let's take a look at the basic characteristics of thermosetting polystyrene board. Thermosetting polystyrene board is made of polystyrene resin by heating and curing. It has the characteristics of light weight, high strength, low thermal conductivity and good fire resistance. Its apparent density is generally between 15-20kg/m³, the compressive strength can reach 0.3-0.5MPa, and the thermal conductivity is only 0.041W/(m·K). These characteristics make thermosetting polystyrene board have a high cost performance in building insulation materials.

Secondly, the application field of thermosetting polystyrene board is very wide. Due to its excellent thermal insulation performance, thermosetting polystyrene board is often used in the exterior wall insulation, roof insulation, ground insulation and other parts of buildings, which can reduce the energy consumption of buildings and improve energy utilization. In addition, thermosetting polystyrene boards are also widely used in cold storage, refrigerated trucks, air conditioning pipes and other places that need to maintain a low temperature environment, as well as equipment insulation in the chemical, electric power and other industries.

Next, let's take a look at the construction method of thermosetting polystyrene boards. The construction of thermosetting polystyrene boards mainly includes steps such as base treatment, board cutting, board pasting and surface treatment. The base treatment is mainly to clean the dust and oil stains on the wall or the ground to ensure the adhesion between the board and the base. Board cutting is to cut the board into appropriate sizes according to actual needs. Board pasting is to paste the cut board on the base with a special adhesive, and then compact it with a tool to ensure close contact between the board and the base. Surface treatment is to perform surface treatment on the pasted board, such as grinding, painting, etc., to improve the beauty and durability of the board.

In general, thermosetting polystyrene board is a building insulation material with excellent performance and wide application. However, any material has its advantages and disadvantages, and thermosetting polystyrene board is no exception. For example, although thermosetting polystyrene boards have good fire resistance, they have poor weather resistance and long-term exposure to sunlight will accelerate their aging. Therefore, when using thermosetting polystyrene boards, it is necessary to select appropriate construction methods and protective measures according to the specific use environment and conditions to ensure their good use effect and service life.
