Expert Verdict
Residual HEA (skin sensitizer) and IPDI (respiratory/skin sensitizer H334/H317) are primary concerns. The tricyclodecane (TCD) moiety adds rigidity but is not itself a sensitizer. Caprolactone-based polyester segments are generally biocompatible.. The tricyclodecanedimethanol (TCD-DM) monomer introduces significant rigidity and hardness to the polymer backbone, improving scratch resistance and gloss retention compared to standard polycaprolactone/IPDI variants; designed for high-durability na...
