Polystyrene (PS) /ˌpɒliˈstaɪriːn/ is a synthetic aromaticpolymer made from the monomerstyrene. Polystyrene can be solid or foamed. General-purpose polystyrene is clear, hard, and rather brittle. It is an inexpensive resin per unit weight. It is a rather poor barrier to oxygen and water vapor and has a relatively low melting point. Polystyrene is one of the most widely used plastics, the scale of its production being several billion kilograms per year. Polystyrene can be naturally transparent, but can be colored with colorants. Uses include protective packaging (such as packing peanuts and CD and DVD cases), containers (such as "clamshells"), lids, bottles, trays, tumblers, and disposable cutlery.
As a thermoplastic polymer, polystyrene is in a solid (glassy) state at room temperature but flows if heated above about 100°C, its glass transition temperature. It becomes rigid again when cooled. This temperature behavior is exploited for extrusion (as in Styrofoam) and also for molding and vacuum forming, since it can be cast into molds with fine detail.
What is Polystyrene Plastic? | Why Styrofoam is TERRIBLE!
What is Polystyrene? How is Styrofoam made? From packaging, to cups, to food storage to construction, Polystyrene is used within many industries. However, what makes polystyrene so great is also what makes it so terrible for the environment. It breaks apart and sheds mirco plastics everywhere.

Why It’s So Hard To Recycle Styrofoam and Polystyrene | World Wide Waste | Business Insider
Many people think Styrofoam — or polystyrene foam — can't be recycled. It can, but because the product is mostly air, it's hard to do it profitably. One company in Mexico City figured out how.
CORRECTION: A previous version of this video incorrectly stated that Styrofoam is a brand owned by The Dow Chemical Company. In fact, DuPont de Nemours Inc. took over the trademark in 2019. The video also misidentified products as being made of Styrofoam, when in fact they are expanded polystyrene foam. We apologize for the errors.

What is Polystyrene (styrofoam) and what is it used for?
from wiki: Polystyrene is a synthetic aromatic hydrocarbon polymer made from the monomer known as styrene. Polystyrene can be solid or foamed. General-purpose polystyrene is clear, hard, and rather brittle. It is an inexpensive resin per unit weight.
Formula: (C8H8)n
IUPAC ID: poly(1-phenylethene-1,2-diyl)
Density: 0.96–1.05 g/cm3
Melting point: ~ 240 °C (464 °F; 513 K) For Isotactic Polystyrene
Classification: Polymer
Thermal conductivity: 0.033 W/(m·K) (foam, ρ 0.05 g/cm3)
Styrofoam is 95-98% air and as such has low thermal conductivity.

Polystyrene (PS) is a synthetic aromatic hydrocarbon polymer made from the monomer known as styrene. Polystyrene can be solid or foamed. Polystyrene is one of the most widely used polymers, the scale of its production being several million tonnes per year. It is thermoplastics with many desirable properties.
It is also known as poly(vinyl benzene). polystyrene is regarded as not biodegradable. It is accumulating as a form of litter in the outside environment, particularly along shores and waterways, especially in its foam form.
In this video, we are discussing the polystyrene (PS) polymer. Monomer for PS is a styrene molecule that undergoes polymerization to give PS polymer. We are discussing here the preparation, properties, and application of PS.
