PS, polymerized by SM, is one of the commonly used commodity plastics. According to its compositions, PS can be grouped into General Purpose Polystyrene (GPPS), which is polymerized by 100% SM, and High-Impact Polystyrene(HIPS), which is a SM and rubber copolymer. PS has characteristics in excellent electrical-insulation, low water take-up and high-flow properties. It is widely used for the manufacturing of food containers, toys, plastic cards materials( IC cards), and 3C products.
