Expanded polystyrene (EPS) articles are made using high impact polystyrene formulations with incorporation of a blowing agent (this is usually a volatile solvent such as pentane). Often, EPS containers will have a crystal polystyrene skin applied to the food contact surface to act as a barrier between food and container. Applications of EPS include thermoformed packaging for eggs, meat, fish and fast food trays. Substances typically used in the manufacture of polystyrene are given in Table 10.3.

To properly design a container to limit the water transport, the food water transport characteristics must also be accounted for. To provide guidance in design, Taoukis, et al. (24), have quantified the water transport in a food and container. A dimensionless value (L) can be defined based on the internal (food) to external (polymer) transport characteristics of the system ...
