What are the 7 classes of plastic?
The seven types of plastic are: Polyethylene terephthalate, High-density polyethylene, Polyvinyl chloride, Low-density polyethylene, polypropylene, Polystyrene, and an unnamed category consisting of plastics that do not fit into the other categories. Polystyrene is often called Styrofoam.
Why is polystyrene brittle?
Unfilled polystyrene is also known as crystal polystyrene (PS) or general purpose polystyrene (GPPS). However, since crystal polystyrene is brittle, other polymers are added to polystyrene to improve its strength, and copolymers are formed as a result. One such copolymer is high impact polystyrene (HIPS), which is produced by adding polybutadiene rubber to polystyrene during the polymerization process. HIPS is tougher and has a greater impact strength than unfilled polystyrene. There are different types of polystyrene. Extruded polystyrene (XPS) is one form of the polymer that has high tensile strength, with good elasticity. It is commonly known as Styrofoam™. The other common form of polystyrene is expanded polystyrene (EPS). Both EPS and XPS are made from similar materials but there are difference between the two. XPS has a higher density as compared to EPS, due to the absence of air passages between its cells. The higher density makes XPS more rigid and strong. Also, XPS is waterproof and is an effective thermal insulator. Read more in the related link.
What is expanded form of PLB relating to HDPE pipes?
Permanantely Lubricated High Density Polyethylene Pipes.
Is Thermopore and polyethylene same?
Thermopore is a brand name of Industrial Enterprises (Pvt.) Limited. This name was coined by the company in 1961 for Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam, which is the most commonly used material for insulation. Polystyrene & Polyethylene are two different materials having distinct characteristics due to difference in closed cell formation and chemical structure. Expanded Polystyrene is widely used for insulation and packing purposes due to its high insulative properties whereas the latter is mostly used for packing purposes

Can you autoclave polystyrene for sterilization purposes?
No, you cannot autoclave polystyrene for sterilization purposes as it may melt or deform under high heat and pressure.

What are the properties and applications of conductive polystyrene?
Conductive polystyrene is a type of polystyrene that has been modified to conduct electricity. It has properties such as high thermal stability, chemical resistance, and good mechanical strength. Conductive polystyrene is commonly used in applications such as electronic components, packaging materials, and static control products.
