HDI isocyanurate trimer is a low-monomer aliphatic polyisocyanate resin built on the thermally stable isocyanurate (trimer) ring of hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI). It is used as the hardener in two-component polyurethane coatings requiring high durability and light stability
▸
Hardener/crosslinker for high-durability, light-stable two-component (2K) polyurethane coatings
▸
Crosslinks hydroxyl acrylic and polyester resins into weatherable, chemical-resistant films
▸
Automotive OEM and refinish clearcoats and basecoats
▸
Industrial-maintenance and protective coatings
Safety & Handling
Full SDS available on request
A grade-specific Safety Data Sheet (SDS) — with the complete hazard classification, handling precautions, and transport information — is supplied with every shipment and available on request. Confirm all safety and regulatory details against the SDS for your specific grade.

Full Description
The isocyanurate ring gives this HDI polyisocyanate strong thermal and hydrolytic stability, and crosslinking it with hydroxyl-functional acrylic or polyester resins produces 2K polyurethane films with excellent light stability, weathering performance and chemical resistance. It is a workhorse hardener for automotive OEM and refinish clearcoats and basecoats, industrial-maintenance systems and protective coatings. Compared with the biuret grade, the trimer typically offers higher functionality and improved hardness and weatherability. RawSource supplies HDI isocyanurate-trimer polyisocyanate in bulk to coating and CASE formulators
