Packaging and shipping
Styrene, with the chemical formula C₈H₈, is a colorless transparent liquid with a distinctive aromatic smell. It is an essential basic organic raw material in the petrochemical industry chain. The ethylene group in its molecule is conjugated with the benzene ring, making it highly reactive. It can slowly polymerize at room temperature, so stabilizers (such as p-tolyl catechol) are usually added to industrial products to maintain stability. As the fourth largest derivative of ethylene after polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, and ethylene oxide, styrene is the core monomer for synthesizing various high-performance plastics, rubbers, and resins. It is hailed as the “cornerstone” of modern polymer materials.




Product Description
Anhui Eapearl Chemical Co., Ltd. relies on a mature supply chain system and strict quality control to provide customers with high-quality styrene products, serving a wide range of downstream industries from general plastics to high-end engineering materials.
Basic Product Characteristics
Physical Properties: At room temperature, it is a colorless transparent oily liquid with a density of approximately 0.906 g/cm³, a boiling point of 145.2 °C, and a flash point of 31.1 °C. It is insoluble in water and readily soluble in most organic solvents such as ethanol and ether.
Chemical Properties: It contains active vinyl groups, which are prone to polymerization, copolymerization, etc. and is an ideal monomer for the production of numerous high molecular materials.
Safety and Health: Styrene is flammable. Its vapor can form an explosive mixture with air. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies it as a 2B category (possibly carcinogenic to humans). During storage, transportation, and use, strict safety procedures must be followed to ensure ventilation and personal protection.
