Polystyrene

Put together a 3D molecule structure model of the popular plastic Polystyrene using Authentic Molymod Atoms & Bonds from Indigo.

Polystyrene is a plastic with many commercial uses, especially  "clamshells" for displaying products ranging from CDs & electronics to hardware & clothing. It is characterized by being completely clear in its natural state. The image show only a single subunit of the much longer polymer.

A molecular model of Polystyrene in the Molymod Hybrid Dome style uses the atoms & bonds in the parts list below. Our free 3D Molecular Model Builder shows other styles & allows for image rotation as an assembly guide.
