HIGH IMPACT POLYSTYRENE (HIPS) 

High Impact Polystyrene or HIPS is one of the existing varieties within polystyrenes. Since polystyrene is a very fragile polymer at room temperature, it is modified by the addition of polybutadiene to improve its resistance to impact.

Premium HIPS Filament (High Impact Polystyrene) is a thermoplastic obtained by polymerizing high impact resistance. It is known as "High Impact Polystyrene" and used as support material ABS or PLA prints.

Premium HIPS (Polystyrene) filament is resistant to oils, fats and alkalis but not fuel. As for his post-processing and finishing it can be chrome, paint, glue and sand. HIPS supports evil UV rays, so long exposure to sun fade and become brittle him. It has low electrical conductivity, so it can be used as insulation.
