Alpha·Methylstyrene (AMS) is a colorless liquid organic chemical that produces various styrene polymers.
AMS adds heat resistance to ABS resins found in automotive parts, electronic appliance housings, and protective coatings and improves the impact and heat-resistant properties of specific polymers, including specialty grades of plastic, rubber, and adhesives.
This product can also be used in para-cumyl phenol, a specialty intermediate for thermoplastics and polycarbonate resins.
