In the present study, the effects of magnesia particles on thermal, dynamic mechanical, morphological, and surface properties of polystyrene resin are investigated. In general, the addition of magnesia particles in polystyrene matrix increases the thermal stability, storage modulus, and wettability, on other hand does not affect the molecular mobility. SEM results showed a limited distribution of magnesia particles in the polystyrene matrix at 15 wt.%.
