The process uses an iron-based catalyst that cycles through oxidation phases, breaking down the chemical structure of the polystyrene as it does so. Per the SciTechDaily report, it turns the foam ...

The space available to each polystyrene chain depended on its position in the structure—and, therefore, determined how much it tangled together with its neighbors. By confining the polymer ...

and polystyrene–polyethylene–polypropylene–polystyrene (SEPS) to create an unusual SEPS@HDPE core–shell structure, where SEPS serves as the core and HDPE as the shell. The phase morphology ...
