Thermosetting
Polystyrene is a very poor conductor of heat. This is why its used as an insulator in some products.
thermosetting plastic
A sharpener is typically made from thermoplastic materials, such as polypropylene or polystyrene. These materials can be easily molded and reshaped when heated, making them suitable for producing various shapes and designs of sharpeners. In contrast, thermosetting plastics, once set, cannot be remolded or reshaped, which is not ideal for the manufacturing process of sharpeners.

Acrylic is a thermoplastic
No, HIPS (High-Impact Polystyrene) is a thermoplastic, not a thermosetting plastic. Thermoplastics can be melted and reshaped multiple times, while thermosetting plastics undergo a chemical reaction during curing that makes them rigid and non-meltable.
It is a thermoplastic! :)
