It is widely used in automotive, electrical and electronic connector systems. This book presents current research in the study of polystyrene, including polystyrene attrition during chemical engineering processes; the biodegradability of polystyrene; the role of adhesion mechanisms of particles on modified polypropylene; direct fluorination of polystyrene; the applications of polystyrene into various sensing platforms; electrospun polystyrene fibres and superhydrophobic surfaces and the synthesis of end-functionalised syndiotactic polystyrene. 410 0$aMaterials Science and Technologies 606 $aPolystyrene 606 $aThermoplastics 615 0$aPolystyrene. 615 0$aThermoplastics. 676 $a668.4/233 701 $aGray$b James E$g(James Ehren),$f1960-$01863193 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963019603321 996 $aPolystyrene$94469704 997 $aUNINA
