Leachate From Expanded Polystyrene Cups Is Toxic to Aquatic Invertebrates (Ceriodaphnia dubia)
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 Expanded polystyrene (EPS) products and their associated chemicals (e.g., styrenes) are widespread in the marine environment. As a consequence, bans on their use for single-use packaging materials are being proposed in several municipalities.

Turning a polystyrene microsphere into a multimode light source by laser irradiation
Nanophotonics, 2022 Polystyrene (PS) is generally considered as a passive optical material that is transparent to light with wavelengths longer than 300 nm. In practice, PS micro- and nanospheres with uniform sizes are usually used to build photonic crystals based on self ...

Fire properties of styrenic polymer–clay nanocomposites based on an oligomerically-modified clay [PDF]
, 2006 An oligomerically-modified clay has been used to fabricate nanocomposites with styrenic polymers, such as polystyrene, high-impacted polystyrene, poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) and acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene by melt blending. The clay dispersion was
