Luckstone, Dusty Rose Prism Ioun Stone.
That's the top of my head at least.

Dodge (Dex 13) and Artful Dodge (Int 13) are two feats that grant a Dodge Bonus AC.
Your mutagen also gives you a +2 NA Bonus when you quaff it.
There's the Dusty Rose Ioun Stone [5,000 gold] that grants a +1 Insight AC Bonus.
Snakeskin tunic gives you +1 Armor bonus [will be negated by Mage Armor] but importantly a +2 Dex enchantment [doesn't stack with belt of dex] for 8000 gold- and some poison resistance.

Unfortunately, a Luckstone does not give any Armor Class.
The Extreme Flexibility spell gives you a Dodge bonus.
Size bonuses might work, depending on your character (reduce person, etc)
Why mage armor? Alchemists could wear a magic mithral chain shirt easily enough.

I think he has a 7 STR, i guess he could Ant Haul and be fine ya
At level 9 if you aren’t buying armour or a NA amulet you could get a nice ring of protection doesn’t stack with magic circle but you could potentially get a +3 you will eventually at least and it’s in all day which is good.
But with the buffs described and the +2 for mutagen and +1 for dusty rose your ac is 32. That’s more than enough at level 9
barkskin (+5 enhancement bonus)
Note that Barkskin is a natural-armor-enhancement bonus. This stacks with natural armor, armor, and armor-enhancement bonuses.
EG, you could gain 2 natural armor from a mutagen, 5 from barkskin, and 6 from a +2 chain shirt. All of these would stack.
Yes he is in fact alchemically allocating a level 12 bottle of it, his two front liners are enjoying it thoroughly. The higher CL shield of faith is a good idea!
Ring of Protection grants a deflection bonus up to +5 (won't stack w/ magic circle)
Get yourself a Protector (Tumor) Familiar. Protector Familiars have the Bodyguard Feat, giving you sort of a +2 AC. They also protect you with Shield Other, offset by their Fast Healing 5, sort of doubling your HP.This doesn't work following the release of ultimate wilderness.
wait, how is this changed in ultimate wilderness?
Tumor familairs can no longer take that particular archtype.
Bwah ha ha!
PFS takes time to look over a book before using it (in whole or in part) if I understand correctly, from a month to a year. AoN updates on a similar schedule. d20pfsrd is crazy at the mo. The PRD can take a year or three to update.
Ultimate wilderness hasn't been released to non-subscribers yet.
So, the Pathfinder Society Rules say I need to own a copy of a book in order for me to use it, and I don't own a copy of Ultimate Wilderness, so I can't use the rule that says I can't have the Protector Tumor Familiar.
That is a saucy response, sorry.
But, I haven't found Ultimate Wilderness on the list of books allowed on the Additional Resources page. Also, no PRD nor FAQs for Ultimate Wilderness. Is Ultimate Wilderness an allowed resource for Pathfinder Society? How does Ultimate Wilderness constitute a change in the rules?
I also reviewed the PRD for Ultimate Magic, and the description of the Tumor Familiar has not been updated to say that Tumor Familiars cannot be Protector Familiars. I also reviewed the Additional Resources section on the Familiar Folio, and no mention has been made that there can no longer be Protector Tumor Familiars. I also checked the FAQ, d20pfsrd, and the Archives of Nethys and haven't found anything.
Can I have more corroboration on this?
well due to ultimate wilderness not even being released yet I'm not surprised that PFS doesn't have anything on it. It's currently not legal for PFS until it reaches the additional resources document. I'd assume once it's released it'll be on PFS really fast and they'll explain how protector tumors do or don't work.

i don't really care about what the other stuff familiars can do all i want is it to be able to protect me via the protector archetype and giving me the +4 bonus to initiative all other familiar abilities i have no use forhardly, they are still full familiars, plus other stuff.Tumor familairs can no longer take that particular archtype.well that's stupid it was literally the only thing they were good for
That's because you're boring :D Familiars are amazing. I always try to get one with every character.
To answer the OP question: I think you have pretty much covered all basic means of acquiring AC. You can always upgrade the bonuses you already have. A +5 buckler would be better than the Shield spell for example, but I think it's worth more for the action economy than the actual +1 to AC.
At this point of the game, you should start investing more on miss chance, rather than flat AC. Blur is a 2nd level extract, Displacement is 3rd level. A lesser Cloak of Displacement gives you permanent Blur.
PS. Drop to the floor as a free action if you're under ranged attack to get +4 to AC :p
Take cover behind one of your allies for a +4
Get your witch to cast Mount and use that for cover if you wanna stay at a safe distance
UMD some scrolls of mirror image
Drink some Mutagen for a +2 to natural armor and another +2 AC from selecting Dex.
Scale and Skin is a feat.
