Methyltetrahydrophthalic Anhydride MTHPA (CAS 11070-44-3) - Liquid Anhydride Curing Agent

Methyltetrahydrophthalic Anhydride MTHPA (CAS No. 11070-44-3, EC No. 234-290-7) is a cycloaliphatic liquid anhydride hardener synthesized for curing bisphenol A, bisphenol F, and novolac liquid epoxy resins. Exhibiting high anhydride group content (≥ 40.50%), ultra-low viscosity (≤ 50 mPa·s at 25°C for JH701), and a low crystallizing point (≤ -15°C), this MTHPA chemical provides excellent processability, long working pot life, low exothermic heat during crosslinking, and high dielectric reliability in cured thermosets.

Supplied by Huizhou Juhui Materials Co., Ltd. (Models: JH701 and JH706), our MTHPA curing agent features low free acid content (≤ 0.50%), minimizing side reactions and CO2 gas evolution during curing. Fully compliant with EU RoHS 2.0 and REACH SVHC regulations.

Technical Advantages & Chemical Behavior

  • Low Viscosity & Superior Wetting Properties: Model JH701 exhibits a viscosity ≤ 50 mPa·s (25°C), significantly lowering the overall mix viscosity when blended with epoxy liquid resins. This ensures complete impregnation of fine spaces, tight coil windings, and dense glass/carbon fiber reinforcement without requiring reactive diluents.
  • Minimal Free Acid & Bubble Elimination: Controlled free acid content (≤ 0.50%) reduces hygroscopic tendencies. When catalyzed with tertiary amine or imidazole accelerators, it prevents premature carboxyl-hydroxyl reactions and stops CO2 outgassing, delivering void-free cured castings with high mechanical strength.
  • Low Thermal Shrinkage & Extended Pot Life: Compared to amine-cured systems, MTHPA hardener systems exhibit lower exotherm peaks, low volumetric shrinkage during cure, and extended room-temperature working time (pot life), making it ideal for large-scale electrical casting and continuous filament winding.
  • Excellent Dielectric & Thermal Performance: Post-cured epoxy network exhibits superior electrical insulation parameters, including high arc resistance, low dielectric loss factor (tan δ), high breakdown voltage, and excellent heat resistance (HDT/Tg).
  • Cold Storage Stability: Formulated with balanced isomer composition, maintaining a liquid state at lower temperatures (crystallizing point ≤ -15°C). If freezing occurs under extreme winter transport, the material easily reverts to liquid phase upon mild warming without chemical degradation.

Formulation & Processing Reference Guidelines

Recommended Stoichiometric Ratio: Typically, 75 to 85 parts by weight of MTHPA curing agent (PHR) are formulated per 100 parts of standard Bisphenol A Liquid Epoxy Resin (EEW ≈ 182-192 g/eq).

Accelerator Selection: Tertiary amines (e.g., BDMA, DMP-30) or imidazoles (e.g., 2-E4MZ) are recommended at 0.5 - 1.5 PHR to adjust gel time and cure speed.

Typical Cure Profiles: 80°C - 100°C for 2 - 4 hours (Primary Gel/Cure) ± 120°C - 150°C for 3 - 5 hours (Post Cure for maximum Tg and mechanical properties).

Primary Industrial Applications

Electrical Insulation & Potting

Dry-type transformers, high-voltage capacitors, instrument transformers (CT/PT), ignition coils, resistors, and outdoor epoxy switchgears.

Fiber-Reinforced Composites (FRP)

Filament winding process for high-pressure petroleum pipelines, chemical storage tanks, utility poles, drive shafts, and high-end sports equipment.

Laminating & Impregnating Varnish

Solventless vacuum pressure impregnation (VPI) of high-voltage motor stator coils and manufacturing of glass cloth laminate sheets.

Storage, Handling & Regulatory Compliance

Packaging Specifications: Standard sealed 220 kg iron drums (17.6 MT per 20'FCL with pallets), 1000 kg IBC tote containers, or bulk ISOTANK container loading.

Storage & Moisture Sensitivity: Store in tightly closed original containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse (recommended storage temperature: 15°C - 25°C). Contact with moisture/humid air increases free acid, leading to performance deterioration. Keep away from direct sunlight, heat, and open flames.

Shelf Life: 12 months under sealed, un-opened storage conditions from the date of manufacture.

Frequently Asked Technical Questions (FAQ)

Q1: How does MTHPA JH701 differ from JH706 in practical processing?

The main technical distinction is viscosity. JH701 provides an ultra-low viscosity (≤ 50 mPa·s at 25°C), facilitating rapid wetting and bubble release in vacuum pressure impregnation (VPI) and deep-section transformer potting. JH706 (≤ 80 mPa·s) is optimized for automated filament winding, composite pipe manufacture, and general electrical encapsulation.

Q2: What is the significance of maintaining low free acid (≤ 0.50%) in anhydride hardeners?

Free acid consists of dicarboxylic acids generated by hydrolysis. Excessive free acid increases mix viscosity, accelerates premature room-temperature gelling, and generates gas voids during crosslinking, which reduces the electrical breakdown strength and thermal stability of the cured resin matrix.

Q3: How to restore MTHPA if crystallization or freezing occurs during winter transport?

If stored at prolonged low temperatures below its crystallizing point (≤ -15°C), partial solidification may occur. Place the sealed container in a warm room or hot room at 40°C - 50°C until completely re-melted, then mix thoroughly before use. This physical phase change does not affect the anhydride group content or chemical reactivity.
