Description

n-(2-Aminoethyl)Cyclohexylamine is a versatile bifunctional amine featuring both a primary and a secondary amino group attached to a cyclohexyl ring. This unique structure makes it a valuable intermediate for synthesizing high-performance polymers, corrosion inhibitors, and specialty surfactants. It is particularly sought after by manufacturers in the polymer, agrochemical, and pharmaceutical industries for its reactivity and ability to act as a curing agent or chain extender.

Application

• Epoxy Curing Agent & Hardener: A key component in formulating high-performance epoxy resin systems for coatings, adhesives, and composites.
• Polyamide & Polyurea Synthesis: Serves as a monomer or chain extender in the production of nylon-type polymers and polyurea elastomers.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Intermediate: Used to manufacture filming amines and other compounds that protect metal surfaces in industrial water systems and fuels.
• Pharmaceutical & Agrochemical Intermediate: Acts as a building block for synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and crop protection agents.
• Surfactant & Demulsifier Production: A precursor for creating cationic surfactants and specialty chemicals used in oilfield and industrial separation processes.
• Chelating Agent & Metal Deactivator: Forms stable complexes with metal ions, useful in water treatment and fuel stabilization applications.

Quality Control

Our n-(2-Aminoethyl)Cyclohexylamine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay by titration and impurity profiling by gas chromatography (GC), to ensure it meets precise specifications and is free from critical contaminants. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and physical properties is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption and potential degradation. Keep away from strong oxidizers and acids.
