Triglycidyl Isocyanurate (TGIC)
Industrial Applications
Triglycidyl Isocyanurate (TGIC) is primarily used in the industrial sector as a crosslinking agent and hardener in powder coatings. It enhances the durability, chemical resistance, corrosion resistance, and UV stability of coated surfaces, making it valuable for protective and decorative finishes in automotive, appliance, and metal fabrication industries.
Physical Properties
Triglycidyl Isocyanurate is a crystalline solid with a white to off-white appearance. It has low solubility in water but is soluble in organic solvents. The compound exhibits high thermal stability and a relatively high melting point, which contributes to its effectiveness in curing processes and forming strong, resilient polymer networks.
