FormPowder
2-Vinylnaphthalene is employed in the synthesis of various copolymers such as Poly (sodium styrenesulfonate-co-2-vinyl-napthalene) copolymer and Poly (2-vinylnapthalene-alt-maleic acid)-graft-polystyrene. The latter finds applications as a photoactive polymer micelle and stabilizer for polystyrene latexes.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
