Styrene-d8

Styrene-d₈ a fully labeled variant of Styrene with eight Hydrogen (H) atoms replaced by Deuterium (D) atoms. This unique molecular structure provides distinct advantages in various applications. Commercially sold Styrene-d₈ contains 4-tert-Butylcatechol as a polymerization inhibitor.
Applications:
●  Analytical Standard: Used in mass-spectrometric studies of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in fuel oils and for determining styrene levels in foods and milk.
●  Isotope Effects Investigation: Helps in studying deuterium isotope effects on particle size and shape in styrene copolymers.
●  Synthesis of Block Copolymers: Essential in creating block copolymers with unique brush architectures.
●  Kinetic Studies: Utilized in kinetic studies describing catalytic chain growth polymerization using a zirconium catalyst.
●  NMR Solvent: Functions effectively as an NMR solvent.
