You don't push air into Styrofoam.
Styrofoam is "foamed" using a liquid blowing agent that is mixed into the liquid styrene resin before molding, this liquid blowing agent then evaporates forming bubbles in the styrene.
This blowing agent used to be a freon, but as these can damage the ozone layer they have switched to using HCFC or HFC blowing agents.
The bubbles in styrofoam are filled with the gaseous form of the blowing agent, not air!
Because styrofoam is full of air bubbles and the actual plastic is very thin.
Styrofoam is a good insulator because it has tiny air pockets that are warmed by the air around it. Once the air's around it temperature drops the styrofoam gives off the heat stored in the pockets of air.
It is expanded polystyrene. The solid plastic contains millions of tiny bubbles of gas or air. It is the bubbles that make it fluffy- and a great insulator and shock absorbing material.
So that you wouldn't mistaken those air bubbles as parasite eggs or other structures.
The property that separates styrofoam balls is their buoyancy. Styrofoam balls are lightweight and have air trapped inside, making them less dense than water. This causes them to float on the surface of water, separating them from denser materials that sink.

It comes with screen protectors, and used to push air bubbles out.
Styrofoam is a good material for retaining heat. This is because its formation is that of tightly packed air-filled, tiny bubbles of plastic and is fairly thick, which prevents heat from escaping.
what makes bubbles brake is the presur of the air moving up and the air presur moving down compackting the bubble airgo making it pop.

To remove the air bubbles, open the stopcock and the air bubbles will remove

Styrofoam contain a great quantity of air - air is a heat insulator.
Yes. It acts as an insulator by displacing air around the ice with millions of tiny bubbles, which exists as tiny bubbles inside of the Styrofoam. Furthermore, it does this in the form of a polystyrene foam, which further enhances the non-thermal conductivity of the material. This makes heat transfer difficult and time consuming. Much like electricity, heat likes a continuous, conductive material through which to transmit.
Styrofoam has pockets of air. These pockets make it harder for heat to travel through.
