kd123 Posted February 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 It is now my understanding that polyetheline is an inert rather dense plastic (similar to white bread boards) quite different from polystyrene.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 It is now my understanding that polyetheline is an inert rather dense plastic (similar to white bread boards) quite different from polystyrene.... Not really quite so different as far as the average person goes. Polystyrene is one of the more common plastics, those white bread boards are probably polystyrene. In fact, most plastic things you have around are probably polystyrene. It can also be turned into a foam called expanded polystyrene(EPS) or styrofoam, just the same as polyethelyne can(EPE).
