Other Monomers & Oligomers

Deltech Vinyl Toluene (VT) is a mixture of methylstyrene isomers, with approximately 55% meta and 45% para isomer distribution. This reactive monomer readily polymerizes to form a high-clarity, colorless polymer with excellent electrical and physical properties. In many applications, VT demonstrates superior properties compared to styrene monomer.

Deltech Divinylbenzene 80% (DVB80) is an extremely reactive monomer. It appears as a clear to slightly hazy amber liquid and has an odor characteristic of aromatic hydrocarbons. Special care is needed with DVB80, as heat-initiated free radical polymerization can easily occur, making the monomer molecule unstable when heated. To prevent premature free radical polymerization, it is treated with tertiary Butyl Catechol (TBC) as an inhibitor. DVB80 is utilized in various fields, including coatings, adhesive tackifiers, functional polymers, molded composites, and insulating varnishes.

Deltech Divinylbenzene 63% (DVB63) is a reactive monomer primarily composed of divinylbenzene and ethylvinylbenzene isomers. It is commonly used in the synthesis of ion-exchange resins and in the production of unsaturated polyester resins and casting resins, where DVB63 serves as a cross-linking agent, providing rigidity. The appearance of this product is that of a yellowish-clear liquid.
