HIPS 7240: High-Impact Polystyrene for Extrusion & Thermoforming

HIPS 7240 is a high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) grade specifically engineered for the extrusion and thermoforming industries. This versatile plastic is highly recognized for having excellent impact resistance and average melt strength, making it ideally suitable for deep-draw applications. Often utilized when blended with general-purpose polystyrene (GPPS) to create certain properties, HIPS 7240 is a tough and reliable base for the production of hard-packaging, disposable dinnerware, and industrial sheets. Its clearance for food contact also expands its viability in food-packaging applications.

Key Features and Manufacturer Benefits

HIPS 7240 combines key attributes that deliver superior performance and manufacturing value.

  • Excellent Impact Resistance: Provides exceptional toughness and durability, creating robust end-products like containers and trays that can withstand significant physical stress without cracking.
  • Superior Thermoformability: Its high melt strength allows for deep-draw thermoforming with uniform wall thickness, enabling the efficient production of complex shapes.
  • Food-Contact Safe: Approved for food-contact applications and featuring a low residual styrene monomer content, making it a safe and reliable choice for food containers, cups, and trays.
  • Versatile Processing: Excels in extrusion and coextrusion processes (e.g., with GPPS or EVOH) and can be blended with crystal polystyrene, offering manufacturers great flexibility to create custom solutions.
  • Aesthetic Finish: Supplied in a matte white color, it provides a clean, consistent appearance ideal for disposable tableware and packaging.

Primary Applications for HIPS 7240

The versatile properties of HIPS 7240 make it suitable for a broad range of applications:

  • Thermoformed Packaging: Ideal for manufacturing yogurt cups, food trays, egg boxes, and disposable containers.
  • Extruded Sheets: Used for producing industrial sheets, often coextruded with GPPS for enhanced gloss and rigidity.
  • Consumer Goods: A popular choice for toys, shoe heels, and durable components for refrigeration units.
  • Disposable Tableware: Widely used for making single-use cups, plates, and cutlery.
  • Barrier Packaging: Can be coextruded with materials like EVOH to create packaging with enhanced gas barrier properties.

Ideal B2B Partners and Industries

HIPS 7240 is engineered for B2B clients and manufacturers who require a durable, food-safe, and highly formable material for packaging and consumer goods.

Our primary audience includes:

  • Packaging & Thermoforming Industry: Companies specializing in deep-draw thermoforming for both food and non-food packaging.
  • Extrusion & Sheet Manufacturing: Producers of industrial-grade polystyrene sheets, often for co-extrusion with GPPS to achieve a high-gloss finish.
  • Food & Beverage Packaging: Manufacturers of yogurt cups, food trays, egg cartons, and disposable containers that must be food-contact safe.
  • Consumer Goods & Disposables: Producers of items like disposable tableware (cups, plates), toys, refrigerator components, and shoe heels.
