CAS No. 1592-20-7 & 30030-25-2

Chloro methyl styrene (CMS) is a difunctional monomer which contains a polymerizable double bond and chloromethyl group. In recent years, there is an increasing tendency for adding various functions to polymers and CMS has become the center of attention in each industrial field as “a reactive monomer”.

Applications

  • Ion-exchange membrane
  • Silane coupling agent
