1, General DescriptionVESTAMIN IPD is a cycloaliphatic diamine, based on isophorone
chemistry. It is a mixture of two stereo-isomers of
3-aminomethyl-3,5,5- trimethylcyclohexylamine, and is a colorless
low viscosity liquid with a faint amine odor.

4, Application:
VESTAMIN IPD is used to produce hardeners for solventless, room
temperature curing epoxies and as a hardener in heat cured epoxies.
Hardeners based on VESTAMIN IPD have low viscosity, low tendency to
form carbamates, and humidity resistance. Epoxy systems cured with
VESTAMIN IPD based hardeners exhibit excellent chemical resistance,
high heat distortion temperatures, and color stability. VESTAMIN
IPD has large application in epoxy-based self-leveling and
trowelable flooring systems, and various civil engineering
applications such as paving, concrete protection and repair. Other
applications include coatings for superior corrosion protection of
metal, adhesives and anchoring compounds. VESTAMIN IPD has many
other uses based on amine chemistry, such as the production of
non-crystalline specialty polyamides with high hardness and optical
transparency. It also is used as a chain extender in polyurethanes
and as an intermediate in dyes.
5, Storage properties:
VESTAMIN IPD is slightly hygroscopic and tends to form carbamates
by reaction with atmospheric CO2. It should be stored free from
moisture and carbon dioxide in glass, stainless steel and similar
containers. Carbon steel is adequate under normal circumstances but
the use of aluminum should be avoided. VESTAMIN IPD is stable for
at least one year when stored in original containers at
temperatures below 25 °C. VESTAMIN IPD crystallizes below 15 °C. It
is necessary to completely liquify the entire contents of the
container by warming to a maximum of 60 °C and mix thoroughly
before use.
6, Handing precautions:
Product may cause skin and eye irritation. In cases of skin contact
wash
immediately with soap and water. For eyes, flush with plenty of
water for 15
minutes and seek medical attention immediately.
7, Packaging
25 kg non-returnable cans and 180 kg non-returnable drums
respectively and in bulk.
