Methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride(Cas 3425-89-6) Usage

Chemical Structure Methyltetrahydrophthalic Anhydride (MTHPA) is a cyclic dicarboxylic anhydride, and its chemical structure is derived from tetrahydrophthalic acid with the addition of a methyl group.
Uses Methyltetrahydrophthalic Anhydride (MTHPA) is commonly used as a curing agent for epoxy resins. It contributes to the cross-linking process, enhancing the strength, durability, and thermal resistance of the cured epoxy.
Characteristics MTHPA imparts unique resistance to UV radiation and atmospheric agents due to its cycloaliphatic structure. It exhibits outstanding mechanical and electrical properties and excellent color retention.

Immunologic contact urticaria due to airborne methylhexahydrophthalic and methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydrides

K. Tarvainen, R. Jolanki, T. Estlander, O. Tupasela, P. Pfäffli, L. Kanerva

, Contact Dermatitis, Volume32, Issue4 April 1995 Pages 204-209

Acid anhydrides are low-molecular-weight chemicals known to cause respiratory irritancy and allergy. Skin allergy has on rare occasions been reported. 2 workers contracted hives and itching on uncovered skin after 2 months exposure to methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride (MTHPA) and methylhexahydrophthalic anhydride (MHHPA), to which they had airborne exposure.

Allergy to methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride in epoxy resin workers.

, Occupational and Environmental Medicine 1992

One hundred and forty four current and 26 former workers in a plant producing barrels for rocket guns from an epoxy resin containing methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride (MTHPA; time weighted average air concentration up to 150 micrograms/m3) were studied.. …
