| | Polymethylene polyphenyl polyisocyanate Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Polymethylene polyphenyl polyisocyanate is a chain extender and a cross-linker that is used in the formation of a polyurethane system by forming amide linkages (?NCO). | | Chemical Properties | liquid | | Uses | Poly[methylene(polyp?henyl Isocyanate)?] is an engineering polymer used in the synthesis of highly resiliant polyurethane foams with flame retardancy.Environmental toxin on US EPA Toxic Release Inventory list (TRI) list. | | Definition | A polymer of diphenylmethane-4,4′-diisocyanate. | | Application | Polymethylene polyphenyl polyisocyanate can be used as a cross-linker to DNA and CTMA based films for the fabrication of biomaterials for organic electronic devices. It can be used in the formation of polyurethane based materials for non-linear optical applications. | | General Description | Dark-brown liquid with a weak odor. Sinks in water. | | Air & Water Reactions | Reacts with water slowly forming heavy scum and liberating carbon dioxide gas. Dangerous pressure can build up if container is sealed. | | Reactivity Profile | Polymethylene polyphenyl polyisocyanate reacts with water slowly forming heavy scum and liberating carbon dioxide gas. Dangerous pressure can build up if container is sealed. Base-catalysed reactions of isocyanates with alcohols should be carried out in inert solvents. Such reactions in the absence of solvents often occur with explosive violence [Wischmeyer 1969]. | | Hazard | Questionable carcinogen. | | Health Hazard | Inhalation causes breathlessness, chest discomfort, and reduced pulmonary function; wheezing, cough, and sputum may also occur. Contact with liquid irritates eyes and skin. Ingestion causes irritation of mouth and stomach. | | Fire Hazard | Behavior in Fire: Containers may explode. | | Safety Profile | Moderately toxic by
ingestion. Mildly toxic by inhalation.
Questionable carcinogen with experimental
neoplastigenic data by implant route. When
heated to decomposition it emits toxic
fumes of NOx. |
