Overview

Polystyrene is one of the most widely used kinds of plastic. Pure solid polystyrene is a colorless, hard plastic with limited flexibility.  More than half of all polystyrene produced is blended with 5 to 10 percent polybutadiene to reduce brittleness and improve impact strength. This blend is marketed as high-impact polystyrene or HIPS for short.

Several other copolymers are also used with styrene. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (or ABS plastic) is similar to HIPS: a copolymer of acrylonitrile and styrene, toughened with polybutadiene.
