Liquid Styrene Monomer
Liquid Styrene Monomer,
styrene liquid， Phenyl ethylene，vinyl-benzene, styrol，cinnamene，CAS:100-42-5,
Styrene is a clear, colourless oily liquid with a sweet, aromatic odour. It is miscible with most organic solvents and slightly soluble in water. It is a good solvent for synthetic rubber, strong plastics, polystyrene and other high molecular weight polymers.
Styrene can be copolymerized with acrylates, methacrylates, acrylonitrile, butadiene, divinylbenzene and maleic anhydride. It responds to a broad range of initiators including peroxides and other free radical initiators, redox initiator systems and ionic initiators.
Synonyms: Phenyl ethylene, vinyl-benzene, styrol, cinnamene, vinyl polymer, polyvinyl resin
Applications of Styrene
Styrene is the monomer for the production of valuable homopolymers and copolymers, the most well known of which is polystyrene, in either solid or expandable form.
Styrene is a raw material in the production of a wide range of materials which are used in thousands of end products such as CD cases, refrigerator linings, food containers, tyres, recreational equipment such as bicycle helmets, carpet backings, keyboards and housings for a broad range of home entertainment equipment such as televisions, audio and video equipment and games consoles. Stryene-based products are characterised by their toughness and insulation properties. For that reason they are frequently used in containers for medical applications such as the transportation of vaccines and organs
