Diethylenetriamine (DETA, CAS 111-40-0) is a multifunctional aliphatic triamine used as a reactive intermediate and performance raw material across coatings, adhesives, surfactant production, corrosion inhibitors and polymer synthesis. Its combination of primary and secondary amine functionality makes it a versatile building block for crosslinking, alkylation and condensation chemistries.
Application
- Epoxy curing and adhesives
Reactive curing agent and accelerator in epoxy systems for coatings, adhesives and composites. - Surfactant and detergent intermediates
Building block for amine-based surfactants, quaternary ammonium precursors and fabric-care actives. - Corrosion inhibitor and water-treatment precursors
Precursor for tailored corrosion inhibitors, chelating agents and scale-control chemistries. - Polyamide and polyurethane intermediates
Intermediate and chain-extender in specialty polymer, polyamide and polyurethane syntheses. - Gas-treatment and amine scrubbing
Component or modifier in gas-treatment formulations for selective removal of acidic gases. - Analytical and laboratory reagent
Small-pack reagent for R&D, method development and QC.
