## Abstract Ammonium sulfate was compounded into polystyrene (PS) to modify thermal degradation of PS. At elevated temperatures, ammonium sulfate decomposes into ammonia, sulfuric acid and further into sulfur trioxide and water. The aim of the study was to investigate how these acidic and oxidizing
