Overview

An assessment of the risks to human health and the environment posed by exposure to triglycidyl isocyanurate, a synthetic white powder or granule used mainly as a three-dimensional cross-linking or curing agent in polyester powder coatings and paints. The chemical is also used in solder ""mask"" inks in the printed circuit board industry. While workers may be exposed during the manufacture of triglycidyl isocyanurate or products containing the chemical, the report concludes that exposure of the general population is minimal. Few studies are available concerning toxic effects in exposed humans. Several cases of allergic contact dermatitis and one case of respiratory sensitization have been reported. In view of the chemical's potential genotoxicity, the report recommends that all appropriate measures should be taken to minimize human exposure to triglycidyl isocyanurate.
