Description

2,2'-[(3-Methoxypropyl)Imino]Bisethanol CAS NO 76088-46-5 is a versatile amino alcohol derivative characterized by its bifunctional structure containing both ether and hydroxyl groups. This compound serves as a crucial intermediate and functional additive, valued for its ability to act as a chelating agent, corrosion inhibitor, and pH buffer in demanding formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the petrochemical, metalworking fluid, personal care, and specialty chemical synthesis industries for its unique combination of properties.

Application

• Metalworking Fluids & Corrosion Inhibition: Acts as a synergistic component in cutting oils, coolants, and hydraulic fluids to neutralize acidic by-products and protect metal surfaces.
• Gas Sweetening & Petrochemical Processing: Utilized as a non-regenerative scavenger or an additive in amine-based solvents for the removal of acidic gases like H₂S and CO₂.
• Personal Care & Cosmetic Formulations: Functions as a pH adjuster, stabilizer, and viscosity modifier in products such as hair dyes, creams, and lotions.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Serves as a key building block for the production of surfactants, emulsifiers, and specialty polymers.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Employed as a softening agent, dye leveler, and processing aid to improve fabric quality and handle.
• Cement Grinding & Concrete Additives: Used as a grinding aid and set retarder to improve efficiency and performance in cement production.
