The shear storage modulus has been determined for 0.05, 0.10, and 0.22 g/cc polystyrene bead foams and for the full density polymer at frequencies from 0.005 to 0.5 Hz at temperatures from −5° to 84°C. These data are superposed to form master curves of log modulus versus log temperature‐reduced frequency, using shift factors calculated by the Arrhenius equation. A plot of log modulus versus log density is linear for the three density foams; however, the modulus value for the solid polymer does not follow this relationship.
