2-Ethylhexylamine, commonly known as 2-EHA or 2-Ethyl-1-hexanamine, is an aliphatic primary amine with CAS number 104-75-6. Its molecular formula is C8H19N, with a molecular weight of 129.24 g/mol. Our industrial grade product appears as a colorless transparent liquid with a characteristic ammonia odor, with strict control over purity, moisture, chromaticity and amine value.

As a versatile organic intermediate, 2-EHA is widely used in the synthesis of various chemical products. It is most commonly used as a raw material for rubber accelerators, where it improves vulcanization speed and rubber mechanical properties. It is also extensively used in the production of surfactants, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, corrosion inhibitors and lubricant additives. Its unique branched alkyl structure provides excellent hydrophobicity and chemical reactivity.

Our 2-ethylhexylamine is produced with advanced synthesis and purification technology, with full batch traceability and complete supporting quality documents. We can provide customized specifications to meet specific customer requirements and ensure long-term stable bulk supply for global industrial manufacturers.

A1: The recommended dosage varies depending on the specific accelerator type and rubber formulation. Typically, 2-EHA is used in stoichiometric amounts with carbon disulfide and other raw materials to produce dithiocarbamate accelerators. A slight excess (1-2%) is often used to ensure complete reaction.

A2: 2-EHA is a strong base and reacts violently with strong acids, oxidizing agents and acid chlorides. It is compatible with most organic solvents and other amines. It should be stored separately from incompatible materials to prevent dangerous reactions.

A3: 2-EHA is a corrosive liquid and may cause severe skin burns and eye damage. Required PPE includes:

• Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or butyl rubber)
• Safety goggles with face shield
• Chemical-resistant apron and protective clothing
• Respiratory protection (gas mask) if working in poorly ventilated areas

A4: In case of spill:

• Evacuate personnel to safe areas
• Wear appropriate PPE
• Contain the spill to prevent spread to drains and waterways
• Absorb with inert material such as sand or vermiculite
• Collect in suitable closed containers for disposal
• Neutralize residual material with dilute acid solution
• Wash the area thoroughly with water

A5: 2-Ethylhexylamine has a shelf life of 24 months when stored in tightly sealed original containers under proper storage conditions. It should be protected from moisture and air to prevent oxidation and discoloration.

A6: No, 2-Ethylhexylamine is not approved for use in food or food contact applications. It is intended for industrial use only.
