This product has three isomers, its physical properties are as follows: Three isomers are colorless liquid, easy polymerization. Containing 55% of divinylbenzene is light yellow liquid, freezing point -87 deg C, boiling point of 195 deg C. The relative density was 0. 918. Insoluble in water, soluble in methanol, ether. Flammable. It can self-polymerize at room temperature.
When ethylene and benzene are alkylated to produce ethylbenzene, mixed diethylbenzene is obtained as a by-product, and the three isomers of diethylbenzene have similar boiling points and are difficult to separate. Therefore, usually mixed diethylbenzene as a raw material, by dehydrogenation to produce O-, m-, p-divinylbenzene.
This product is an important cross-linking agent, can be used as ion exchange resin, polyester resin and polymerization monomer component. It can also be used as a modifier of polystyrene, styrene-butadiene rubber, etc.

application | divinylbenzene is a hydrocarbon organic substance, which is a very useful crosslinking agent and is widely used in ion exchange resins. Separation of exchange membrane; ABS resin; Polystyrene resin; Unsaturated polyester resin; Synthetic rubber, etc. |
overview | divinylbenzene is a very useful crosslinking agent, widely used in ion exchange resin, ion exchange membrane, ABS resin, polystyrene resin, unsaturated polyester resin, synthetic rubber and other fields. However, divinylbenzene is extremely reactive. In the distillation process, due to the initiation of metal ions and heat, free radical polymerization is very easy to occur, and the higher the temperature, the faster the polymerization speed. In order to avoid material consumption caused by polymerization, various polymerization inhibitors are often added to prevent free radical polymerization |
deep processing | a large amount of tar will be produced in the distillation process of divinylbenzene. in addition to polymers and polymerization inhibitors, tar also contains 10%-30% divinylbenzene monomer. if directly discharged, it will not only cause damage to the surrounding environment, but also cause certain economic losses. If divinylbenzene tar is developed and utilized in deep processing, the environment can be protected and economic benefits can be improved. |
Use | Used as raw material for resin, paint and special rubber Insoluble in water, soluble in methanol and ether. Organic synthesis. Divinylbenzene has two ethylenes, which can generate an insoluble polymer with a three-dimensional structure when copolymerized. Therefore, it is a very useful crosslinking agent, which is widely used in ion exchange resins. Separation of exchange membranes; ABS resin; Polystyrene resin; Unsaturated polyester resin; Synthetic rubber; Wood processing; Carbon processing, etc. |
Production method | When ethylene and benzene are alkylated to produce ethylbenzene, mixed diethylbenzene is obtained as a by-product. The three isomers of diethylbenzene have similar boiling points and are difficult to separate. Therefore, usually mixed diethylbenzene raw materials are dehydrogenated to produce ortho, m, and p-divinylbenzene. |
