Why is a polystyrene container used to store ice cubes?

Biology
1 answer:
Xelga [282]3 years ago
7 0

Because polystyrene has certain thermal properties that can be used in order to store things and maintain their temperature.

When you store ice cubes in polystyrene containers they won't melt and they'll keep cold because the cold they'll generate in the container wont escape, and the heat from outside wont come in.


Hope it helped,
