  • Applications

    2-Aminoethanol;azane is widely used as a chemical intermediate and solvent in many industries; it serves as a building block for nonionic surfactants (via ethoxylation) and other ethoxylated amines, and acts as a feedstock for polyurethane and polyurea chemistries as a chain extender or curing agent; it functions as a processing solvent and formulation component in coatings, cleaners, and inks; in natural gas processing it is employed for CO2/H2S removal (gas treating) and can provide corrosion inhibition benefits; it is used as a pH adjuster and buffering agent in cosmetics/personal care formulations; it may be a precursor for carbamates and other specialty polymers. Subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
