聚苯乙烯（Polystyrene，缩写PS）是指由苯乙烯单体经自由基加聚反应合成的聚合物，日文名称为ポリスチレン。它是一种有色透明的热塑性塑料，具有高于100℃的玻璃转化温度，因此经常被用来制作各种需要承受开水的温度的一次性容器，以及一次性泡沫饭盒等。
聚苯乙烯玻璃化温度80～90℃，非晶态密度1.04～1.06克/立方厘米，晶体密度1.11～1.12克/立方厘米，熔融温度240℃，电阻率为1020～1022欧·厘米。导热系数30℃时0.116瓦/(米·开)。通常的聚苯乙烯为非晶态无规聚合物，具有优良的绝热、绝缘和透明性，长期使用温度0～70℃，但脆，低温易开裂。此外还有全同和间同以及无规立构聚苯乙烯。全同聚合物有高度结晶性，间同聚合物有部分结晶性。

聚苯乙烯（PS）包括普通聚苯乙烯，发泡聚苯乙烯（EPS)，高抗冲聚苯乙烯（HIPS）及间规聚苯乙烯（SPS）。普通聚苯乙烯树脂，无臭，无色的透明颗粒，似玻璃状脆性材料，其制品具有极高的透明度，透光率可达90%以上，电绝缘性能好，易着色，加工流动性好，刚性好及耐化学腐蚀性好等。普通聚苯乙烯的不足之处在于性脆，冲击强度低，易出现应力开裂，耐热性差及不耐沸水等。
属性
普通聚苯乙烯树脂属无定形高分子聚合物，聚苯乙烯大分子链的侧基为苯环，大体积侧基为苯环的无规排列决定了聚苯乙烯的物理化学性质，如透明度高.刚度大.玻璃化温度高，性脆等。可发性聚苯乙烯为在普通聚苯乙烯中浸渍低沸点的物理发泡剂制成，加工过程中受热发泡，专用于制作泡沫塑料产品。高抗冲聚苯乙烯为苯乙烯和丁二烯的共聚物，丁二烯为分散相，提高了材料的冲击强度，但产品不透明。间规聚苯乙烯为间同结构，采用茂金属催化剂生产，发展的聚苯乙烯新品种，性能好，属于工程塑料。
HIPS 台湾奇美PH-88S 华南代理成型性能
无定形料，吸湿小，不须充分干燥，不易分解，但热膨胀系数大，易产生内应力。流动性较好，可用螺杆或柱塞式注射机成型。宜用高料温，高模温，低注射压力，延长注射时间有利于降低内应力，防止缩孔、变形.。 可用各种形式浇口，浇口与塑件圆弧连接，以免去处浇口时损坏塑件。脱模斜度大，顶出均匀。塑件壁厚均匀，不带镶件，如有镶件应预热。
1.吸水性极小，成型前可不干燥。模温30-60度，料温140-200度。
2.性脆易裂，热膨胀系数大，易产生内应力。
3.流动性较好，应注意模具间隙，防止缩孔、飞边。
4.宜采用高料温、高模温、低注射压力，延长注射时间有利于降低内应力，防止缩孔、变形，但料温过高，容易出现银丝，料温低或脱模剂多则透明性差。
5.可采用各种形式的浇口，脱模斜度宜大，顶出力均匀，以防开裂。
6.塑件壁厚均匀，不带嵌件，各面应圆弧连接，不宜有缺口、尖角。
Wasn't it odd that she didn't know who she was? And wasn't it unreasonable that she hadn't been allowed to have any say in what she would look like? Her looks had just been dumped on her. She could choose her own friends, but she certainly hadn't chosen herself. She had not even chosen to be a human being.
But if space had come from something else, then that something else must also have come from something. Sophie felt she was only deferring the problem. At some point, something must have come from nothing. But was that possible? Wasn't that just as impossible as the idea that the world had always existed?
They had learned at school that God created the world. Sophie tried to console herself with the thought that this was probably the best solution to the whole problem. But then she started to think again. She could accept that God had created space, but what about God himself? Had he created himself out of nothing? Again there was something deep down inside her that protested. Even though God could create all kinds of things, he could hardly create himself before he had a "self" to create with. So there was only one possibility left: God had always existed. But she had already rejected that possibility! Everything that existed had to have a beginning.
