Collection: Styrene Monomers

Styrene Monomers — gathers substituted styrene derivatives—bearing halogen, boronate, additional vinyl, or other functional groups on the aromatic ring or vinyl position—that carry the conjugated double bond characteristic of addition monomers. These compounds serve as building blocks for radical polymerization, controlled addition, and various other organic synthesis transformations.

Styrene Monomers are used by polymer researchers to construct functional copolymers via free radical polymerization, ATRP, or RAFT, where the substituent groups on the aromatic ring determine the polarity, melting point, and post-polymerization reactivity of the final product. Derivatives bearing boronate or carboxylate groups are also used as cross-linking points or sites for further conjugation in the synthesis of functional materials and macromolecular chemistry research.

Example products in this collection: TCI V0216 57142-64-0 4-Vinyl-1,2-phenylene Diacetate, TCI B6545 98-81-7 (1-Bromovinyl)benzene (stabilized with 3,5-Di-tert-butylcatechol), TCI V0188 27326-43-8 2-Vinylbenzoic Acid, TCI B6977 99794-56-6 1-Bromo-2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-vinylbenzene (stabilized with TBC), TCI V0141 15016-43-0 3-Vinylphenylboronic Acid (contains varying amounts of Anhydride), TCI C0288 2039-87-4 2-Chlorostyrene (stabilized with TBC), TCI V0139 13388-33-5 2-Vinylanthraquinone, TCI C0289 2039-85-2 3-Chlorostyrene (stabilized with TBC).

Note the stabilization status (for example the addition of TBC or other inhibitors), which affects the shelf life of the monomer before polymerization, as well as the purity and ring substitution pattern that determine its specific reactivity. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
