Properties and Usage:
Diethanolamine (CAS 111-42-2), referred to as DEA, is an important ethanolamine compound. It is a colorless to light yellow viscous liquid with a slight ammonia smell and multiple characteristics of hydrophilicity and amino group. It is commonly used in chemical, petrochemical, water treatment, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and other fields.
1. Chemical industry: Diethanolamine is a key raw material in chemical synthesis and is used to produce surfactants, emulsifiers and detergents to improve the cleaning and dispersibility of products. DEA is also used as an important intermediate in the preparation of fertilizers, drug synthesis and other organic compounds.
2. Petrochemical: Diethanolamine is crucial in gas purification, especially in natural gas processing and petroleum refining. It can efficiently remove acidic gases such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide to ensure the purity and quality of natural gas and refined oil.
3. Water treatment: As a corrosion inhibitor, diethanolamine is used in boilers and cooling systems to prevent corrosion of metal parts and reduce scale formation, thereby ensuring the stable operation and service life of the system.
4. Agriculture: Diethanolamine is a key intermediate in the synthesis of a variety of pesticides (such as herbicides, insecticides and fungicides). It helps to increase the activity of pesticides and improve the health of crops.
5. Cosmetics and personal care: Diethanolamine is used as an emulsifier and foam stabilizer in personal care products such as skin care products, shampoo and shower gel to improve foam quality, adjust pH value and enhance product durability and stability.
6. Textile and leather processing: In the textile and leather industries, diethanolamine is used as a softener and dyeing auxiliary to improve the softness and water absorption of fibers, making the finished product better in texture and more uniform in color.
7.Gas treatment: Diethanolamine is often used to absorb and treat acidic gases (such as sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide) in industrial emissions, reduce emission concentrations, help companies meet environmental standards and improve air quality.
Storage conditions: It is recommended to store in a cool, well-ventilated dedicated warehouse away from direct sunlight. The storage temperature should not exceed 30°C to prevent product deterioration or decomposition.
Packing: This product is packed in 25kg drums, and it can also be customized according to customers' requirements
