Complete Guide on GPPS (General Purpose Polystyrene): Properties, Grades, Applications, and Market Insights


1. What is GPPS? | Full Form and Definition

GPPS stands for General Purpose Polystyrene, a clear, rigid, and brittle thermoplastic polymer made by the polymerization of styrene monomer.

It is a non-toxic, transparent, and cost-effective plastic widely used in various industries for its clarity, dimensional stability, and ease of processing.


2. Key Features of GPPS

  • High transparency and gloss

  • Excellent dimensional stability

  • Easy to mold and process

  • Good electrical insulation

  • Economical

  • Food-contact safe (in approved grades)


3. Common Grades and Forms of GPPS

Type Application
GPPS Injection Grade Household items, casings, packaging trays
GPPS Extrusion Grade Stationery, sheets, and foamed products
Food-grade GPPS Disposable cutlery, food containers
High Flow GPPS Thin-wall items, fast cycle molding

4. Applications of GPPS

  • Food Packaging: Yogurt cups, cutlery, trays, disposable plates

  • Stationery Products: Rulers, CD/DVD cases, pen barrels

  • Household Items: Cosmetic cases, kitchenware, containers

  • Electrical Components: Insulation parts, switch covers

  • Toys and Models: Rigid toy components, plastic models

  • Medical Use: Test tubes, petri dishes (in non-critical applications)


5. GPPS vs HIPS: What’s the Difference?

Feature GPPS HIPS (High Impact PS)
Transparency Clear Opaque
Impact Resistance Lower Higher (due to rubber blending)
Cost Slightly cheaper Slightly higher
Flexibility Brittle Flexible

6. GPPS Properties

Property Typical Value
Density ~1.05 g/cm³
Tensile Strength ~45 MPa
Melting Point ~240°C
Vicat Softening Point ~100°C
Light Transmission Up to 90% (transparent grades)
Dielectric Strength Good

7. GPPS Manufacturing Process

  1. Polymerization of styrene using free-radical initiators

  2. Pelletization into transparent GPPS granules

  3. Processing via injection molding, extrusion, thermoforming


8. GPPS Recycling & Sustainability

  • Recyclable under code ♶ (PS – Number 6 Plastic)

  • Commonly recycled into:

    • Light switch plates

    • Picture frames

    • Plastic packaging

  • Can be blended with virgin material or used in non-food applications


9. Major GPPS Manufacturers
