Research Summary

Methylene Diphenyl Di-isocyanate (MDI) is an organic compound commonly used in the production of polyurethane foams, coatings, adhesives, and elastomers. It is a versatile di-isocyanate compound with the formula C15H10N2O2. MDI exists in two main isomers, 4,4’-MDI and 2,4’-MDI, with 4,4’-MDI being the most widely used. MDI is a viscous liquid at room temperature, and its reactivity stems from the two highly reactive isocyanate functional groups in its structure. These isocyanate groups readily react with polyols or other compounds containing active hydrogen atoms to form polyurethane polymers. MDI-based polyurethane foams are known for their excellent insulation properties, making them valuable in construction, automotive, and appliance industries. MDI-based coatings and adhesives provide improved durability and moisture resistance. It is worth noting that MDI can cause skin and respiratory sensitization in some individuals, so proper safety measures should be followed when handling and using MDI.
