Polystyrene Laboratory Services

Polystyrene

Polystyrene, often referred to as PS, is a synthetic aromatic polymer made from the monomer styrene. Known for its rigidity, clarity, and ease of processing, polystyrene is widely used in the production of packaging materials, disposable items, insulation, and consumer goods. It is available in various forms, including solid, foam, and film, catering to different industrial needs.
