Tricyclopentadiene (Cat No.:C001077) is a cyclic hydrocarbon with three fused cyclopentadiene rings in its structure. It is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor and is commonly used as a monomer in the production of various resins and polymers, such as dicyclopentadiene-based resins. These resins find applications in coatings, adhesives, and automotive parts due to their excellent mechanical and thermal properties. Tricyclopentadiene is also utilized as a starting material for the synthesis of other chemical compounds.
