Evaluation of alternatives to expanded polystyrene beads for mosquito control
Journal of Applied Entomology, 2013 AbstractExpanded polystyrene (EPS) beads have been shown to be an effective tool for controlling immature stages of mosquitoes, as well as preventing oviposition by adults. Polystyrene does not biodegrade quickly, resulting in some concerns about its effect on the environment.

Microwave-assisted foaming of expandable polystyrene beads
Journal of Cellular Plastics, 2011 A novel method for obtaining polystyrene foam, which uses microwave as the source of energy for expansion process, is developed. In this article, a method to disperse target expansion agent using two-stage bulk polymerization and free radical suspension polymerization of styrene is described.

Properties of hardened concrete containing treated expanded polystyrene beads
Cement and Concrete Composites, 1994This paper reports the results of an experimental investigation into the properties of hardened concrete containing chemically treated expanded polystyrene beads. The results showed that the strength, stiffness and chemical resistance of polystyrene aggregate concrete of a constant density were affected by the water to cement ratio.

Effectiveness of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Beads Size on Fly Ash Properties
International Journal of Geosynthetics and Ground Engineering, 2020The present study focused on laboratory investigation of fly ash mixed with expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads. Different sizes of EPS beads were mixed with fly ash to study the effect on maximum dry unit weight, cohesion, angle of internal friction, California bearing ratio (CBR) value, coefficient of consolidation, and permeability.

Adhesives for bead fusion of recycled expandable polystyrene
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2002AbstractExpandable polystyrene (EPS) is a plastic cellular material that is commonly used in the packaging industry. Its growing uses have led to environmental concerns over resource sustainability and the dwindling availability of landfill spaces. Although existing approaches to control and manage EPS wastes are available, much effort is still needed ...

The Relevance of Expanded Polystyrene Beads for Ground Improvement: A Review
2021An expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads are a lightweight synthetic material that is manufactured daily as a packing material. This study describes the engineering and mechanical behavior of the EPS beads under the actions of stress. The influence of size (diameter) and density of EPS beads on a stress–strain behavior have been well explained in the study.
