Styrene monomer

Product Description

What is Styrene Monomer?

Styrene Monomer, also known as vinylbenzene, is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH. It is a colorless, oily liquid that evaporates easily and has a sweet aromatic smell. Styrene is widely used as a precursor to polymers and copolymers, making it a vital raw material in numerous industries.

Applications of Styrene Monomer

Styrene monomer plays a crucial role in the production of plastics, resins, and synthetic rubber. Key applications include:

1. Polystyrene Production

Styrene is the primary component in polystyrene, a rigid plastic used in packaging, disposable cutlery, containers, and insulation materials.

2. Styrene-Butadiene Rubber (SBR)

Used extensively in tires and automotive parts, SBR offers excellent abrasion resistance and aging stability.

3. Unsaturated Polyester Resins (UPRs)

These resins are widely applied in fiberglass, construction materials, and marine coatings, with styrene acting as a crosslinking agent.

4. Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)

ABS is a durable thermoplastic used in electronics, automotive trim, and consumer goods.

5. Copolymer Resins

Styrene is commonly copolymerized with acrylates or butadiene for improved material properties in paints, coatings, and adhesives.

Health & Safety Considerations

Styrene is classified as a hazardous material. Prolonged exposure can affect the central nervous system and may cause respiratory and skin irritation. Proper handling, ventilation, and the use of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) are essential when working with this chemical.
