Idemitsu Chemicals USA Corporation Datasheets for Polystyrene Resins and Styrene Copolymers
Polystyrene is a synthetic aromatic polymer that can be rigid, foamed, or an integral part of a copolymer. Copolymers includes systems such as high impact polystyrene (HIPS) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), which have wide use due to their improved impact resistance.
