Trimesoyl Trichloride
TMC is an important building block in the production of polymer membranes useful for fluid purification via Reverse Osmosis (RO) techniques. An important application for TMC in water purification membranes involves interfacial polymerization of meta-phenylene diamine (MPD) with 1,3,5-benzenetricarbonyl tri-chloride producing a cross-linked polyamide. More recently, TMC has been used for the synthesis of controlled porosity polyester membranes via interfacial polymerization using di or tri-hydroxy aromatics as co-reactants for application in gas separation.

DDP-850-3,5-diethyl-1,2-dihydro-1- phenyl-2-propylpyridine
DDP refers to the crude reaction mixture from aniline/butyraldehyde condensation.
It is widely used as a cure accelerator in adhesives technology.
3,5-diethyl-1,2-dihydro-1- phenyl-2-propylpyridine is recognized as the active compound in DDP effecting cure acceleration. Purified DDP (85% min. by GC) is desired for use in adhesives applications because:
- It reduces batch-to-batch cure variation by eliminating uncontrolled side reactions associated with impurities.
- More efficient and reduces chemical waste compared with commonly available ~40% grades.
TMOSPU-Bis(3-(Trimethoxysilyl) Propyl) Urea- Adhesion Promoter Grade
an important additive in the formulation of advanced adhesives, enhancing bonding between hydroxyl decorated surfaces and hydrophobic media. TMOSPU is particularly effective in adhesives used in bonding magnesium alloys, an application of increasing significance in the automobile industry as OEM’s strive to replace traditional materials of construction with lightweight /high strength alternatives.
