Trimellitic Anhydride is a white crystalline solid that serves as a critical intermediate in the production of high-performance polymers, plasticizers, and coatings. TMA is widely used in specialty plasticizers known for their excellent heat and extraction resistance, ideal for wire and cable insulation and automotive applications.
It is also a key building block in polyester resins, powder coatings, and adhesives, contributing durability, chemical resistance, and thermal stability. TMA reacts readily with alcohols and amines, making it versatile for a wide range of polymeric systems.
