Styrene Monomer
Styrene Monomer, commonly known as Polyester Thinner, is an auxiliary material used to thin polyester resins and gelcoats. It features solvent properties and is flammable in nature
What is Styrene Monomer?
Styrene Monomer stands out with its "solvent" feature, which is among the features of its unique structure. It presents an almost colorless/translucent appearance and is available in a clear liquid form, easily recognizable by its distinctive characteristic odor.
By reducing the viscosity of the resin, it facilitates the thinning of the resin. It thins the resin, enhancing its fluidity. Styrene Monomer is typically used for thinning unsaturated polyester resins or gelcoats. Excessive addition of Styrene Monomer for thinning purposes may compromise the properties of the resin. Unsaturated polyester resin contains Styrene Monomer in specific proportions.
Areas of Application
Due to the advantages offered by Styrene Monomer (polyester thinner), it is safely utilized across various sectors. It is commonly preferred in applications such as manufacturing of Unsaturated Polyester Resins, Polystyrene Manufacturing, Protective Paint, Styrene Rubber, and thinning gelcoats.
