Divinyl sulfone, 97%, stab. with 0.05% hydroquinone, 50 g

Divinyl sulfone is a highly reactive chemical compound used primarily as a cross-linking reagent. It acts as a monomer in the production of polymers with diols, urea, and malonic esters. It also serves as a shrinkage control agent in textiles and is widely used in the preparation of a large class of fiber-reactive dyestuffs. Additionally, it functions as a cross-linker for agarose gels in laboratory applications.
