| Vinyl Toluene (VT) monomer is a mixture of methylstyrene isomers with approximately 55% meta and 45% para isomer distribution. The monomer has chemical properties and polymerization behavior similar to styrene monomer but provides superior properties in many applications. VT monomer is widely used in the coatings industry as a modifier for drying oils and oil modified alkyds. These monomer modified resins have good chemical resistance, fast drying, durability, excellent solution color and color retention properties, and solubility in low cost solvents. VT monomer is used as a replacement for styrene monomer in unsaturated polyester resins (UPR) where high temperature cures combined with less shrinkage are desired. UPRs formulated with VT monomer exhibit a lower vapor pressure at any temperature and a higher flash point. |
