Iziphuzo ze-HIPS, ezaziwa nangokuthi iziphuzo ze-polystyrene ezinamandla aphezulu, ziyinto ye-thermoplastic eyakhiwe ngohlelo lwezinyathelo ezimbili olwakhiwe ngephasi ye-rubber kanye nephasi ye-polystyrene eqhubekayo. Le nto ithuthukisa ukumelana nomthelela kwe-polystyrene ngokusebenzisa ukujula kwe-rubber, okwenza ibe nezici ezinhle zokuthintwa nokucubungula, futhi isetshenziswa kabanzi emikhakheni ehlukene.

Ubukhulu be-HIPS particles buphakathi kwe-1.04-1.06 g/ml, futhi bavele njengezikhumbuzo ezimhlophe ezingenamoya noma ama-granules. Ukumelana kwabo namafutha namanzi kubavumela ukuba bagcine ukusebenza kahle ezindaweni ezahlukene, kuyilapho futhi bekwazi ukuhluza kwezinye izixazululo eziphilayo ezifana ne-benzene, toluene, ethyl acetate, dichloroethane, njll.

I-granules yethu ye-HIPS (imodeli: HIPS-WH02) inezinhlelo eziningi zokusebenza, kufaka phakathi kodwa kungagcini lapho ezinsizeni, izigubhu zezemidlalo, izikhala zokupholisa umoya, izikhala zezinto zokusebenza zasendlini, nezinye izinkalo. Ngenxa yezakhiwo zayo ezinhle zomzimba kanye nezindleko eziphansi, ama-particulate e-HIPS asebe yinto ethandwayo ezinqubweni zokukhiqiza imikhiqizo eminingi.
