TMG 232
Application
TMG 232 is a solid,amorphous organo-tin catalyst that is utilized in the following applications:
• Esterification and transesterification reactions
• Polycondensations reactions
• Manufacture of polyester and alkyd resins
The toxicological properties of TMG 232 are better compared to its dibutyltin counterparts.
It is typically uesd at concentrations ranging from 0.01-0.5 wt%,depending on the application.
