The mass of polystyrene is easily estimated looking at its mass spectrum. The spectrum has the shape of a comb with a large number of teeth. Teeth are equally spaced. In the region between 1000 and 3000, the spacing is 104.12 g/mol. In the region between 3000 and 6000, the spacing is 104.18 g/mol. If the and the spacing is approximately 104.12 g/mol. The spacing changes
Polystyrene is a synthetic aromatic polymer. It is created either as a rigid polymer or in foamed shape. It has a density of 1.05 grams per cubic centimeter.
Styrofoam is made of a foamed polystyrene; that is all it is made of.
Polystyrene is used to make styrofoam, which is exceedingly buoyant; it can also be used in denser, less buoyant forms.
Polystyrene is a high molecular weight polymer. Its formula is approximately
---[-CH(C6H5)CH2]X--- where ---- indicates a long continuing chain and x can be very high >1000000
Polystyrene. the opaque white cups that you can make fingernails impressions in, are foamed polystyrene. Clear sups that you get on an airplane are general-purpose polystyrene.
Food and dairy containers, produce baskets, fast food containers, closures and vending cups and lids comprise the biggest commercial market of polystyrene. Polystyrene is also used in the durable goods industry in the manufacturing of domestic appliances, toys, household goods, electronic goods and furniture. Because polystyrene is not susceptible to rough treatment it is favoured for use as packing materials. Polystyrene is used to protect goods that are shipped by stabilising the items inside the containers. Used for mail order due to its lightweight aspects, polystyrene doesn't add much to postage costs. The food industry uses polystyrene for climate control to keep produce fresh during transportation. Polystyrene is a common insulation product for walls, cavities, lofts and floors. Hope I helped :-)

That depends on how you define "better" and what you're using it for.
Some are made of cardboard and some of plastic or polystyrene foam.
Polystyrene is NOT biodegradable
Rigid polystyrene is a hard plastic Rigid polystyrene is a hard plastic
density= mass/ volume (if you want the weight then you have to multiply the mass by 9.8, however I am sure that you mean the mass. Mass= kg, Weight= Newtons)
The atactic polystyrene is more crystalline than the syndiotactic polystyrene.
Because polystyrene is the polymer of the monomer styrene; poli in the Greek language has the meaning of many.
Polystyrene is a kind of hard plastic.
Polystyrene is obtained by the polymerization of the monomer styrene.
Polystyrene is not very dense.
Polystyrene is today difficult to be recycled.
Polystyrene was discovered in Germany. Eduard Simon discovered it in 1839. He was from Berlin. Polystyrene is also called thermocole.
the polystyrene film is cover all the ir range.
Its quite fun to pretend your King Kong and break the polystyrene!
