ULTRENE™ 99-6 DCPD products are 99% purity dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) product containing 6% cyclopentadiene (CPD) trimer. The CPD Trimer content is available from 6% to 20% depending upon the customer's needs. In addition to the superior toughness, durability, electrical, mechanical, and hydrolytic resistance properties obtained from ULTRENET 99 DCPD, the CPD Trimer imparts a significant increase in the heat distortion temperature (HDT) of the cured resin or polymer with some increase in rigidity.
