General Description
Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI) is a highly reactive, aromatic diisocyanate widely used as a key raw material in the production of flexible polyurethane foams, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor and is valued for its fast reaction rate, high reactivity with polyols, and versatility across industrial applications.
TDI enables manufacturers to produce high performance polyurethane products with excellent mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance properties. Its consistent purity and controlled isomer composition make it suitable for large-scale industrial operations and regulated manufacturing environments.
