Description

3-Amino-1-Propanol Hydrochloride is an important organic salt and versatile chemical intermediate. Its primary value lies in its bifunctional nature, featuring both an amino group and a hydroxyl group, which makes it a key building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules. This compound is essential for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries seeking to develop active ingredients, functional polymers, and fine chemicals.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key starting material for the synthesis of various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), including β-blockers and other cardiovascular drugs.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Polymer & Resin Modifier: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent for producing polyamides, epoxy curing agents, and water-soluble resins.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Formulation: A component in formulations for metal treatment and industrial cooling water systems.
• Bioconjugation & Linker Chemistry: Utilized in biochemical research and diagnostic reagent development as a spacer or linker molecule.
• Surfactant & Detergent Industry: Acts as a precursor for the synthesis of amphoteric and cationic surfactants.

Quality Control

Our 3-Amino-1-Propanol Hydrochloride is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for synthesis and industrial applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled 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 and handling properties.
