TGIC-Based Polyester Resins: Properties and Applications

TGIC (Triglycidyl Isocyanurate)-based polyester resins are thermosetting powder coatings known for durability, weather resistance, and chemical stability. Below is a structured overview:

1. Key Characteristics

PropertySpecification
Curing AgentTriglycidyl Isocyanurate (TGIC)
Resin TypeCarboxyl-functional polyester
Curing MechanismEpoxy-carboxyl reaction (thermosetting)
Curing Temperature180–200°C (356–392°F)
Curing Time10–20 minutes
Weather ResistanceExcellent (UV-resistant, >10 years outdoor durability)
Chemical ResistanceHigh (resists acids, alkalis, solvents)
Mechanical PropertiesHardness: 2H–3H (pencil); Flexibility: ≤2 mm (cone bend test)

2. Advantages vs. Alternatives

FeatureTGIC-Based PolyesterNon-TGIC (e.g., HAA-Based)
Weather ResistanceSuperiorModerate
Curing EfficiencyFastSlower
Film FlexibilityExcellentGood
Regulatory StatusRestricted (REACH)Eco-friendly

3. Applications

IndustryUse Cases
ArchitecturalWindow frames, fencing, aluminum profiles
AutomotiveWheels, trim parts, underbody coatings
General IndustryAppliances, machinery, outdoor furniture
Functional CoatingsAnti-corrosion pipelines, electrical enclosures

4. Regulatory & Safety Notes

AspectDetails
Health ConcernsTGIC is a suspected mutagen (handle with PPE)
RegulationsRestricted in EU (REACH); alternatives (e.g., HAA) preferred in eco-sensitive markets
StorageDry, cool conditions; shelf life: 12 months

5. Comparison with Competing Resins
