General description

p-Divinylbenzene(DVB) is a cross-linking agent, which is used in a variety of polymeric processes such as copolymerization of styrene to improve the thermo-mechanical properties of the composite.

Application

DVB can be cross-linked with styrene/vinylbenzene chloride and incorporated with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) to form new microporous nanocomposites for water remediation. It can also be used in combination with polyethylene glycol diacrylate to form linkages with polyethylene oxide (PEO), which can be used as an electrolytic material for lithium batteries.

1. Biotransformation of 1,4-diethenylbenzene (1) in rat was studied. Six urinary metabolites, namely, N-acetyl-S-[2-(4-ethenylphenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl]-L-cysteine (3), N-acetyl-S-[1-(4-ethenylphenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl]-L-cysteine (4), N-acetyl-S-[1-(4-formylphenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl]-L-cysteine (5), 1-(4-ethenylphenyl)ethane-1,2-diol (6), 4-ethenylbenzoic acid (9) and 4-ethenylbenzoyl-glycine (12) were isolated and identified by n.m.r. and mass spectrometry. 2.
