Triethylenetetramine – TETA
Triethylenetetramine is a linear polyamine containing four amine nitrogen atoms. Its combination of primary and secondary amines makes it reactive with epoxides and other functional materials and useful in resin, curing and chemical-intermediate applications.
Overview
Product information
Triethylenetetramine is a linear polyamine containing four amine nitrogen atoms. Its combination of primary and secondary amines makes it reactive with epoxides and other functional materials and useful in resin, curing and chemical-intermediate applications.
Commercial TETA grades may contain related amines and may differ in assay, colour and water content. Product-page performance claims should therefore remain general until Hamara supplies the intended commercial specification.
