Chemical Properties
Vinylbenzyl chloride (VBC) is also called (chloromethyl)ethenylbenzene or α-chloromethylstyrene. It is a difunctional monomer with both a polymerizable double bond and a benzylic chlorine, and is an isomeric mixture made by the chlorination of VT. VBC has a high boiling point(98.9 ℃ at 1.3 kPa) and low flammability.
Uses
Vinylbenzyl chloride can be used as organic synthesis intermediate and pharmaceutical intermediate, mainly used in laboratory research and development process and chemical production process.
Uses
Vinylbenzyl Chloride can be used for acrylic emulsion pressure-sensitive adhesive composition.
Uses
Vinylbenzyl chloride can be transformed into a high molecular mass homopolymer, will copolymerize with many other monomers, and is used as comonomer in a variety of specialty plastics. It is also possible to carry out reactionson the chloromethyl group, either before or after polymerization.
