polystyrene is a thermoplastic which means that it is a plastic that can be melted and molded into any shape. So basically, polystyrene is a plastic, though it can be molded when heated whereas normal plastics just melt in contact with heat.
Methanol is used to force polystyrene OUT of solution. So the simple answer is: you can't. But, there is probably an extreme temperature or pressure that allows polystyrene to remain in solution with methanol present.
The mixture of Polystyrene and Acetone results in the creation of a sticky residue as the Polystyrene beads dissolve into the Acetone. You can use Nail polish remover with Acetone. However, the chemical reaction occurs at a much more rapid pace with pure Acetone.
The raw material of a polystyrene cup is polystyrene plastic, which is derived from styrene, a petroleum-based hydrocarbon. The polystyrene undergoes a process called extrusion or injection molding to form the shape of the cup.
Fish oil contains compounds called hydrocarbons, which are known to have a solvent effect on polystyrene. When fish oil comes in contact with polystyrene, the hydrocarbons can break down the bonds holding the polystyrene together, causing it to dissolve.
yes polystyrene is ls less dence than water because it floats
no
you burn it
Yep
80% of general garbage is recycleable.
Polystyrene is NOT biodegradable
Rigid polystyrene is a hard plastic Rigid polystyrene is a hard plastic
Yes, if it is adequately cleaned.
Because polystyrene is the polymer of the monomer styrene; poli in the Greek language has the meaning of many.
Polystyrene is obtained by the polymerization of the monomer styrene.
Polystyrene is a kind of hard plastic.
The other name for polystyrene is Styrofoam.
Polystyrene was discovered in Germany. Eduard Simon discovered it in 1839. He was from Berlin. Polystyrene is also called thermocole.
