How does styrophone melts because of glue?

Styrofoam is made of polystyrene, which is a type of plastic that can be dissolved by certain chemicals found in glue. When glue comes into contact with styrofoam, it breaks down the polystyrene molecules, causing the material to melt or soften. The glue essentially eats away at the styrofoam, causing it to lose its shape and structure.


How do you build a strong tower made out of toothpicks and white glue?

Buy pieces of styrofoam. Then, you stick the base in styrofoam. Next, you measure the length of the first piece and the length of the shape of the toothpicks. You may put some vertical on the horizontal toothpicks. Cut off the top of the toothpicks, and put glue on them. If you just poke the next piece of the styrofoam on, you wouldn't be using the glue. Make sure the length of the styrofoam is slightly bigger than the shape of the toothpicks. Glue the styrofoam on. Lastly, do it over and over again until reached height desired. You will need • pieces of styrofoam • Over 100 pieces of toothpicks • Elmer's Glue-All glue
