No, both are different.
Polystyrene is a polymer of styrene (C6H5CH=CH2) whereas polyethylene is a polymer of ethylene (CH2=CH2).
Yes, polystyrene is stronger
No, it is a styrenic plastic.
Polyethylene Which is stronger Polyethylene or dyneema?
Plastic polymer is comprises of about 70% of petrochemicals. The main byproducts of plastic polymers are High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), PVC, Polystyrene and Polypropylene.
Thermopore is a brand name of Industrial Enterprises (Pvt.) Limited. This name was coined by the company in 1961 for Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam, which is the most commonly used material for insulation. Polystyrene & Polyethylene are two different materials having distinct characteristics due to difference in closed cell formation and chemical structure. Expanded Polystyrene is widely used for insulation and packing purposes due to its high insulative properties whereas the latter is mostly used for packing purposes
The molecular structure of polyamides are impecable and superior to polyethylenes because of the amino group at the end of the chain.
Plastic is a generic term. There are a variety of different forms of plastics.Some include:Polyester (PES)Polyethylene terephthalate (PET)Polyethylene (PE)High-density polyethylene (HDPE)Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)Polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC)Low-density polyethylene (LDPE)Polypropylene (PP)Polystyrene (PS)High impact polystyrene (HIPS)Polyamides (PA) (Nylons)Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)Polyethylene/Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (PE/ABS)Polycarbonate (PC)Polycarbonate/Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (PC/ABS)Polyurethanes (PU)Melamine formaldehyde (MF)Plastarch materialPhenolics (PF) or phenol formaldehydesPolyetheretherketone (PEEK)Polyetherimide (PEI)Polylactic acid (PLA)Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)Urea-formaldehyde (UF)You will need to be more specific, unless someone out there would like to research these twenty-five and all other forms of plastic and their market values.
Polyethylene Which is stronger Polyethylene or dyneema?
The seven types of plastic are: Polyethylene terephthalate, High-density polyethylene, Polyvinyl chloride, Low-density polyethylene, polypropylene, Polystyrene, and an unnamed category consisting of plastics that do not fit into the other categories. Polystyrene is often called Styrofoam.
i think epoxy surfboards are. nevermind, that's polystyrene...
oriented polystyrene

There are a variety of types of plastic. Some of these include Polystyrene (PS), Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), and Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC).
It refers to the type of plastic. 1 = polyethylene terephthalate (PET or PETE) 2 = high density polyethylene (HDPE) 3 = polyvinyl chloride (PVC) 4 = low density polyethylene (LDPE) 5 = polypropylene (PP) 6 = polystyrene (PS) 7 = Other
They are similar but different. PVC is stronger & more rigid than polyethlene and is used for wastelines & polyethylene is used for water lines.

Polyethylene makes a garbage bag stronger!!!!!!!!!!!! dah
Plastic bags can be made of different polymer types such as: High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Medium-Density Polyethylene (MDPE) Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) Linear low-density polyethylene Higher density polyethylene polymers have stronger cross-links for linking large chains to another which is usually how plastic bags are able to stretch more and can hold heavier objects. Hence being stronger.
