Tosoh MDI Curing Agent NPU MR200 – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary function of NPU MR200 in polyurethane systems?

A: NPU MR200 is a modified MDI-based curing agent designed to enhance crosslink density and improve thermal stability, mechanical strength, and chemical resistance in thermosetting polyurethane coatings, adhesives, and elastomers.


Q2: Is NPU MR200 compatible with common polyol types used in industrial PU formulations?

A: Yes, NPU MR200 demonstrates broad compatibility with polyester polyols, polyether polyols, and polycarbonate diols. Reactivity and final film properties may vary depending on polyol functionality, molecular weight, and formulation pH or moisture content.


Q3: How should NPU MR200 be handled and stored to maintain optimal reactivity?

A: Store in tightly sealed containers under dry, inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen blanket) at temperatures between 15–30 °C. Avoid exposure to moisture, ambient humidity, or elevated temperatures during storage or handling, as this may lead to premature dimerization or viscosity increase.


Q4: Can NPU MR200 be used in low-VOC or high-solids PU coating systems?

A: Yes — its low volatility and high functionality make it well-suited for low-VOC and high-solids applications. It enables reduced solvent demand while supporting robust film formation and cure performance without significant outgassing or blistering.
