| Uses |
1,3,5-triglycidyl isocyanurate be used for curing agent of polyester and acrylic resin carboxyl-containing powder coating, manufacturing an electrical insulating laminates, adhesives, plastics stabilizers. |
| Uses |
TGIC is widely used as a cross-linking agent or curing agent in powder coating industry, It is used also in the printed circuit board industry, electrical insulation and as a stabilizer in plastic industry. Typical applications of polyester TGIC powder coatings are where sharp edges and corners exist such as on automotive wheels, air conditioners, lawn furniture, and air conditioner cabinets. |
| General Description |
White crystalline solid. |
| Air & Water Reactions |
Insoluble in water. |
| Reactivity Profile |
Epoxides are highly reactive. They polymerize in the presence of catalysts or when heated. These polymerization reactions can be violent. Compounds in this group react with acids, bases, and oxidizing and reducing agents. They react, possibly violently with water in the presence of acid and other catalysts. |
| Fire Hazard |
Flash point data for 1,3,5-Triglycidyl isocyanurate are not available; however, 1,3,5-Triglycidyl isocyanurate is probably combustible. |
| Contact allergens |
Triglycidyl isocyanurate is a triazine epoxy compound used as a resin hardener in polyester powder paints, in the plastics industry, resin molding systems, inks, and adhesives. Occupational contact dermatitis can occur in people producing this chemical, in those producing the powder coat paint, and in sprayers. Respiratory symptoms have been observed. |
