Description

Cyclododecyl Isocyanate 97 is a high-purity, monofunctional aliphatic isocyanate characterized by its bulky cycloaliphatic structure. This compound is a critical building block in polymer chemistry, valued for its ability to impart enhanced hydrolytic stability, low color, and excellent weatherability to final products. It is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process engineers in the specialty chemicals, advanced materials, and performance coatings sectors for synthesizing high-value polyurethanes, adhesives, and other functional polymers.

Application

• Synthesis of light-stable and weather-resistant polyurethane coatings for automotive and industrial applications.
• Production of specialty polyurethane elastomers requiring high hydrolytic and thermal stability.
• Key intermediate in the manufacture of agricultural chemicals and pharmaceutical active ingredients.
• Modification of polymers to introduce reactive isocyanate functional groups for cross-linking.
• Research and development of novel high-performance adhesives and sealants.
• Surface treatment agent for improving adhesion and durability of composite materials.

Quality Control

Our Cyclododecyl Isocyanate 97 is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the declared purity and specification. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming identity, assay, and impurity profiles for traceability and quality assurance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and moisture-sensitive nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed under a dry inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to prevent degradation. Keep away from heat, open flames, and incompatible materials such as alcohols, amines, and strong bases.
