Description

Ethanolamine is a versatile amino alcohol and a crucial building block in industrial chemistry, valued for its bifunctional reactivity as both an amine and an alcohol. This compound is essential for formulators and manufacturers requiring a reliable, high-purity intermediate for synthesis and pH adjustment. It serves a wide range of global industries, including agrochemicals, personal care, gas treatment, and metalworking fluids, where consistent quality and stable supply are paramount.

Application

• Agrochemical Intermediates: A key raw material in the synthesis of herbicides, pesticides, and plant growth regulators.
• Gas Sweetening: Used as an absorbent in amine scrubbing processes to remove acidic gases like CO₂ and H₂S from natural gas streams.
• Surfactants & Personal Care: Acts as a chemical intermediate in the production of emulsifiers, detergents, and foam boosters for cosmetics and cleaning products.
• Metalworking Fluids: Functions as a corrosion inhibitor and pH stabilizer in cutting, grinding, and hydraulic fluids.
• Pharmaceutical Synthesis: Serves as a precursor and neutralizing agent in the manufacture of various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Textile & Leather Processing: Utilized as a softening agent and dye auxiliary in fabric and leather treatment.
• Cement Grinding Aids: Improves efficiency and output in cement production by acting as a grinding aid additive.
