Synthesis & Applications
Production Method
Ethylenediamine reacts with ethylene oxide under low-temperature catalytic condition, then vacuum rectification to separate mono- and di-substituted byproducts to obtain finished AEEA.
Main Applications
- Surfactant raw material: Intermediate for amphoteric surfactants, shampoo & foam cleanser mild detergent
- Metal surface treatment: Chelating neutralizer for metal plating solution, rust inhibitor for steel
- Water-based coating auxiliary: PH regulator, pigment dispersant, anti-rust additive for latex paint
- Gas purification agent: CO?/H?S absorbent in industrial flue gas desulfurization system
- Epoxy curing agent: Low-viscosity modified amine curing agent for waterborne epoxy resin
Safety & Storage Instructions
GHS Hazard Classification
- H314 Causes severe skin burns and eye damage
- H332 Harmful if inhaled
- H335 May cause respiratory irritation from amine mist/vapor
Personal Protection
Full-face chemical splash goggles, impermeable butyl nitrile gloves, alkali-resistant overall, organic mist respirator; operate in ventilated fume hood, avoid direct skin contact and vapor inhalation.
Storage Condition
Hermetically sealed plastic-lined iron drum, cool dry ventilated warehouse ≤30℃; isolate strong acids, oxidants, avoid air contact to prevent CO? absorption.
Transportation
