NexTherm is NexKemia’s new option for improved insulating performance over traditional expandable polystyrene (EPS). The pentane (blowing agent) concentration and bead size range provide optimal achievable EPS density targets from 1.0 to 3.0 The MT series is suitable for a wide range of applications requiring improved insulating properties. The MT series eps resin is best described as black beads, are slightly lentil in shape, and are produced by a stateof-the-art extrusion process.

Applications:
MT Series EPS can be used in many applications including but not limited to:

• Block Molding

• Insulation board (1.0 to 3.0 pcf) for Building & Construction projects

• Structural Insulated Panels (SIP’s)

• Protective Packaging

• Many Additional Applications

Shape Molding

• Thick wall (> 1 cm) applications
