Lo stirene (noto anche come stirolo, feniletilene o vinilbenzene) è un idrocarburo aromatico. Il gruppo vinile legato all'anello aromatico è caratterizzato da un'elevata reattività, in quanto l'anello aromatico è in grado di delocalizzare cariche elettriche ed elettroni spaiati nelle posizioni orto e para attraverso diverse forme di risonanza. Per questo motivo lo stirene ha più facilità a polimerizzare rispetto all'etilene. A temperatura ambiente è un liquido oleoso trasparente dal caratteristico odore dolciastro; è tossico e infiammabile. Insolubile in acqua, si scioglie nei più comuni solventi organici.
