  • Applications

    2-Pentanamine (CAS 63493-28-7) is primarily used as an organic synthesis intermediate and building block for the preparation of other amines and related specialty chemicals. It is commonly employed as a precursor in the manufacture of pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediates, and as a starting material for various amine derivatives. In addition, it serves as a reactive amine component in polymer and coating formulations, enabling routes to polyurethane/epoxy resin systems, and it is involved in the production of specialty surfactants and cleaning agents. Its use is subject to formulation requirements and local regulations.
