Polystyrene (PS) & Expandable Polystyrene (EPS) Market for Building & Construction, Electrical & Electronics, Packaging and Other Applications: Global Industry Perspective, Comprehensive Analysis, and Forecast, 2014 – 2020

Deerfield Beach, FL -- (SBWire) -- 06/12/2017 --Zion Market Research  has published a new report titled "Polystyrene (PS) & Expandable Polystyrene (EPS) Market for Building & Construction, Electrical & Electronics, Packaging and Other Applications: Global Industry Perspective, Comprehensive Analysis, and Forecast, 2014 – 2020." According to the report, global demand for polystyrene and expanded polystyrene was valued at USD 32 billion in 2014 and is expected to reach USD 42 billion in 2020, growing at a CAGR of approximately 4.5% between 2015 and 2020. In terms of volume, the global polystyrene and expanded polystyrene market stood at 17.5 million tons in 2014.

Polystyrene is a thermoplastic polymer obtained from the polymerization process of styrene monomer. In a synthesis process, the raw material like benzene and ethyl benzene are used to form styrene. The polystyrene melts at high temperature and it can remain rigid on cooling. Its thermal properties help to produce different components by employing the different technology like molding, extrusion, and vacuum forming. Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is a rigid and tough, closed-cell foam. It is usually white and made of pre-expanded polystyrene beads. EPS is used for many applications e.g. trays, plates, bowls and fish boxes. Some other types of polystyrene are general purpose polystyrene (GPPS), extruded polystyrene (XPS), and high impact polystyrene (HIPS).
