  • Applications

    Propylamine (CAS 107-10-8) is a versatile building block in organic synthesis used as an intermediate to prepare a broad range of downstream products. In industry, its main applications include: acting as a precursor to other amines and pharmaceutical intermediates; serving in the production of dyes and pigments via diazotization routes; functioning as a starting material for agrochemical synthesis (including herbicides and pesticides); acting as a reactive component in coatings and adhesives as a curing agent or reactant for epoxy resins and polyurethane formulations; and providing a building block for surfactants and specialty chemicals. It is generally handled as a reactive intermediate and its use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
