EINECS/ELINCS: 234-290-7
Structural formula:

Methyl tetrahydrophthalic anhydride is mainly used as a curing agent for epoxy resins. It has a low tendency to absorb moisture from the air and zero or minimal formation of carbon dioxide when mixed with tertiary amine accelerators.
Methyl tetrahydrophthalic anhydride can be easily blended with various liquid resins providing stable, low viscous mixture and long pot lives.
In the field of reinforced plastics Methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride is used for filament wound products (pipes for oil, poles and sport goods), laminated sheets, printed circuit boards, switch gears.
