  • Applications

    2-(2-Aminoethoxy)ethanol (CAS 929-06-6) is commonly used as a chemical intermediate in polyurethane and epoxy resin chemistries, where its amine functionality enables chain extension, crosslinking, or curing of polymers. It also serves as a building block for amino-alcohol surfactants and for polyether polyols used in coatings, adhesives, and flexible foams. Additionally, it is a precursor for functional additives that enhance hydrophilicity and adhesion in specialty coatings and sealants. In polymer and plastics processing, it provides reactive functionality that facilitates downstream modification and formulation.
