Features Of Styrene Styrene Monomer

  1. High-purity monomer with ≥99.8% assay ensures consistent polymerization performance.

  2. Stabilized with 10–15 ppm TBC (tert-butylcatechol) to prevent premature thermal polymerization during storage and transport.

  3. Low peroxide content (<5 ppm) minimizes side reactions in sensitive copolymerization processes.

  4. Controlled water content (<0.05 wt%) reduces hydrolysis risk in anhydrous reaction systems.

  5. Distillation-grade clarity and low color (APHA ≤10) support optical-grade polymer production.

Typical Applications Of Styrene Styrene Monomer

  1. Production of general-purpose polystyrene (GPPS) for packaging, disposable containers, and consumer electronics housings.

  2. Copolymerization with butadiene to manufacture styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) for tires and industrial elastomers.

  3. Feedstock for acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) terpolymers used in automotive trim and durable goods.

  4. Synthesis of unsaturated polyester resins (UPR) for fiberglass-reinforced composites in construction and marine applications.

  5. Monomer component in styrenated alkyd resins for high-performance architectural and industrial coatings.
