  • Styrofoam is a fictional powder element for Powder Game.
  • Styrofoam dissolves almost instantaneously in acetone, toluene, gasoline, and other organic solvents.

A popular "science party trick" is to amaze people with the volume of styrofoam that can be dissolved in even a small amount of acetone. A common rumor exists that "homemade napalm" can be made by dissolving styrofoam in gasoline, which is true insofar as Styrofoam can serve as a thickener and adhesive agent for petroleum based fuels, making a stickier fuel.
