Description

2-Aminoethoxyethanol is a versatile amino alcohol compound with a bifunctional structure containing both a primary amine and a hydroxyl group. This dual functionality makes it a valuable intermediate for the synthesis of various specialty chemicals, offering reactivity for both condensation and etherification reactions. It is particularly sought after by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and polymer industries for producing surfactants, corrosion inhibitors, and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key building block in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug conjugates.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Precursor: Used in the formulation of high-performance corrosion inhibitors for industrial cooling and boiler water systems.
• Surfactant & Emulsifier Synthesis: Serves as a raw material for producing non-ionic surfactants and emulsifying agents.
• Polymer & Resin Modifier: Acts as a chain extender or cross-linking agent in polyurethane and epoxy resin formulations.
• Gas Treating Agent: Utilized in the production of compounds for acid gas scrubbing processes, such as CO2 and H2S removal.
• Textile & Leather Auxiliary: Functions in the manufacture of softening and finishing agents for textiles and leather.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: An intermediate for herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.

Quality Control

Our 2-Aminoethoxyethanol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, identity confirmation, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the high standards required for industrial and fine chemical synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, physical properties, and test results are provided with every shipment to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency and traceability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
