Crude dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) is a yellowish-brown (or amber) liquid, has a hydrocarbon odour, and normally contains 65 percent dicyclopentadiene (DCPD). Crude dicyclopentadiene is a flammable Liquid. Dicyclopentadiene, the key element of crude dicyclopentadiene, reacts with oxygen and strong oxidizing agents to give peroxides. Crude dicyclopentadiene is chiefly used to manufacture high purity dicyclopentadiene. Crude dicyclopentadiene is stabilized with 4-tert-butylcatechol (TBC) to prevent peroxide formation. There are no consumer uses of crude dicyclopentadiene; it is used as feedstock to produce high purity dicyclopentadiene.
Dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) is also known as DCPD mixture, Cyclopentadiene dimer, and bicyclopentadiene. It is used to produce a broad range of specialty products, including polyester resins, adhesives, coatings, varnishes, and other specialty chemicals.
Pyrolysis of hydrocarbon mixtures is the only major industrial source of cyclopentadiene and dicyclopentadiene. Industrial end uses of cyclopentadiene and dicyclopentadiene may be classified under two broad categories:
Dicyclopentadiene is commercialized in many purity grades; lower purity grade (60 wt. % to 80 wt. %) is used to produce hydrocarbon resins. Grades with a concentration over 85 wt. % are employed to produce unsaturated polyester resins. High purity grade normally contains 91–95 wt. % dicyclopentadiene. These dicyclopentadiene grades are employed as a source of CPD via dicyclopentadiene cracking to manufacture intermediates such as norbornene or ethylidene norbornene (ENB).
ENB and high purity dicyclopentadiene are employed to produce ethylene propylene diene rubbers (EPDM). Dicyclopentadiene, employed as a thermonomer for EPDM, tends to be of highest purity (over 94 wt. %). High purity dicyclopentadiene may be further upgraded to an ultra-pure grade of above 99 wt. % dicyclopentadiene. This dicyclopentadiene grade is used to make poly-dicyclopentadiene for use in catalytic reaction injection moulding (RIM).
Hydrogenated dicyclopentadiene resins are employed as adhesives for diapers and sanitary ware, hot melt adhesives with thermoplastic rubbers, tackifiers in tires and floor tiles, surface coating and varnishes and ink. These are also employed in white for road marking paint, where light stability and chemical resistance assume significance. Chemically modified dicyclopentadiene resins and dicyclopentadiene copolymers are employed in printing inks, particularly for offset printing in the newspaper industry.
Dicyclopentadiene was initially introduced into the production of polyester resins as a cheaper substitute for phthalic anhydride for lower quality unsaturated polyester resins. These dicyclopentadiene types may offer significant cost savings due to lesser necessity for styrene and the replacement of phthalic anhydride and propylene glycol by ethylene glycol and dicyclopentadiene.
Dicyclopentadiene-based unsaturated polyester resins offer advantages related to lower viscosity and better processability, better surface properties and better resistance to weathering and water. However, such dicyclopentadiene-containing resins are not appropriate for applications where transparency is needed.
