  • Applications

    Dicyclohexylamine (CAS 101-83-7) is mainly used as an organic synthesis intermediate and building block for more complex chemicals. It functions as a basic amine and participates in the formation of carbamates and urea in various routes, and serves as a starting material for pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediates. In polymers and coatings, it can be used as a curing- or formulation adjunct in epoxy and polyurethane systems. It also serves as a precursor in dye and pigment chemistry, supporting the synthesis of dye intermediates and related materials.
