Poly(styrene-co-4-bromostyrene-co-divinylbenzene)
Poly(styrene-co-4-bromostyrene-co-divinylbenzene) (CAS 39311-03-0) is a hydrophobic terpolymer, featuring a 2% cross-linked structure. It contains approximately 29 wt.% styrene and possesses an activity of ~2.5 meq Br/g, indicating the presence of brominated styrene units. This material is suitable for applications in materials science and polymer research, particularly where controlled hydrophobicity and reactive sites are required for further functionalisation or polymerisation.

Materials Science Research
Utilised in the development of novel materials where its hydrophobic nature and specific cross-linking density are advantageous. The incorporated bromine offers a site for further chemical modification.
Polymer Science Studies
Serves as a model compound for investigating polymer properties, network formation, and the impact of brominated monomers on copolymer characteristics. Its defined cross-linking aids in understanding mechanical and swelling behaviours.
Functional Polymer Synthesis
The 4-bromostyrene units provide reactive handles for post-polymerisation modification, enabling the synthesis of more complex polymer architectures or functionalised materials for specialised applications.
