Description

colourless to light yellow liquid Toluene diisocyanate exists in two isomeric forms (2,4-toluene diisocyanate and 2,6-toluene diisocyanate), which have similar properties and effects. Toluene diisocyanate is produced commercially as an 80:20 (2,4-toluene diisocyanate:2,6-toluene diisocyanate) mixture of the two isomers. At room temperature, the mixture is a clear, pale yellow liquid with a sharp, pungent odor. It should be stored under refrigeration, away from light and moisture in a tightly cl

Toluene 2,4-diisocyanate Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Nitrification from toluene produces dinitrotoluene, which is then reduced to obtain toluene diamine. Toluenediamine reacts with phosgene to obtain TDI (mainly 2, 4-isomer).

Uses

In the manufacture of polyurethane foams and other elastomers.
