Overview of Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI)

Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI) is a highly reactive chemical intermediate widely used in the production of polyurethane foams, coatings, elastomers, adhesives, and sealants. It is a colourless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odour and plays a critical role in the chemical industry for creating flexible and rigid polymer products.

In industrial applications, Toluene Diisocyanate is valued for its reactivity with polyols to form polyurethane, offering excellent mechanical strength, elasticity, and chemical resistance. ChemicalBull supplies high-purity TDI suitable for industrial manufacturing, ensuring consistent quality, safety compliance, and reliable performance.
