Explanation:

Polystyrene (PS) plastic is a naturally transparent thermoplastic that is available as both a typical solid plastic as well in the form of a rigid foam material. PS plastic is commonly used in a variety of consumer product applications and is also particularly useful for commercial packaging.

Uses:-

As a thermoplastic polymer, polystyrene is in a solid (glassy) state at room temperature but flows if heated above about 100 °C, its glass transition temperature. It becomes rigid again when cooled.

Quality:-

Less fading: Polyester holds dye well to prevent fading, but doesn't produce as “rich” of a color as cotton. High-quality polyester holds its shape well and doesn't shrink. Dries quickly: Unlike cotton, polyester isn't absorbent
