MONOMERS
METHYL METACRYLAMIDE
Product Description: Methacrylamide is an industrial chemical used in the production of polymers and copolymers. Methacrylamide is a precursor of methyl methacrylate.
VINYL ACETAT MONOMER
Product Description: Vinyl acetate monomer is a colorless liquid with a low flash point. It has a characteristic odor. Vinyl acetate monomer is soluble in most organic solvents including chlorinated solvents , but is not soluble in water. Vinyl acetate monomer is easily polymerized with acrylate esters to produce polymers. It is inhibited with hydroquinone.
Application: Vinyl acetate monomer is a chemical building block used for a wide variety of industrial and consumer products. Polyvinyl acetate is used to produce paints, adhesives, coatings for flexible substrates and sizing for polyester fiber-fill insulation textiles. Polyvinyl alcohol can be used to produce adhesives, coatings and water soluble packaging films. Polyvinyl acetals are used to produce insulation for magnetic wire, inter-layers for safety glass, wash primers and coatings.
STREN MONOMER
Product Description: Styrene is a colorless to yellowish liquid with an aromatic, sweet odor. If styrene is not stabilizedwith an appropriate inhibitor, light or heat may promote an uncontrolled polymerization reaction, forming polystyrene. Reaction with oxygen may form a peroxide, which may explode at slightly elevated temperatures. Based on the boiling point of 145°C (293°F) and the flash point of 31°C (87.8°F), styrene is classified as a flammable liquid and vapor under the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) on classification and labeling.
