Are styrene and styrene monomer the same?

Styrene and Styrene monomer are the same thing.
 
CAS 100-42-5 Styrene is a monomer. Monomer means “one part” and refers to a single molecule that can combine with the same or similar molecules. When many monomers form a larger molecule, it becomes a polymer. For example, many styrene monomer molecules form a substance — polystyrene — with properties different than the monomer.

What is Styrene Monomer used for?

Styrene is most commonly used as a monomer to produce polystyrene (PS), a versatile plastic. Polystyrene itself is used in disposable packaging, rigid plastic products, and insulation materials. Beyond polystyrene, sm styrene monomer is a key component in manufacturing styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), and unsaturated polyester resins. It also serves as a solvent in some industrial processes and as a chemical intermediate in synthesizing other compounds.
