Over 50 years of Experience Arkema, Inc. has been continuously producing amines for over 50 years. Arkema manufactures a variety of amines, including: - Dimethylethylamine (DMEA)
- Diethylaminopropylamine (DEAPA)
- Diisopropylamine (DIPA)
- Dimethylisopropylamine (DMIPA)
- Ethylmethylamine (EMA)
- 3-Isopropoxypropylamine (IPOPA)
- Monoisopropylamine (MIPA)
- 3-Methoxypropylamine (MOPA)
We also have the ability to produce such specialty amines as ethyldiisopropylamine (EDIPA), a proton scavenger used in pharmaceutical applications, and dimethyldipropylenetriamine (DMAPAPA) used in the coatings market as well as Trimethylpropylenediamine (TMPDA). Multiple Industries Amines are used in a wide variety of and industries: - Pharmaceuticals
- Agrochemicals
- Paints and coatings
- Specialty chemicals (plastic additives, monomer synthesis, water treatment, etc.
Multiple Applications
Amines have found uses in an amazing array of applications. Following is a partial list: - Agrochemical: Alkylamines are important chemical intermediates used in the synthesis or formulation of many types of herbicides and pesticides
- Monomers, Polymers, and Rubber: amines act as intermediates for a wide variety of monomers and polymers for applications as diverse as resins, plastics, rubber, and textiles
- Petroleum and Petrochemical: emulsion breakers, antioxidants, sludge prevention, lubricating oil additives, and gas treating
- Corrosion inhibition: metalworking fluids, lubricants, and coatings. Corrosion inhibitors which contain nitrogen, obtained by an amine, are used in many industries
- Neutralizing agent: for pharma synthesis, textile fibers, water treatment, and refinery gas treatment
- Curing agents: for epoxy or polyurethane resins
- Amines salt providers: for agrochemical formulations, anti-corrosion additives for water treatment or lubricants
- Building block for fine chemical synthesis: active ingredients for pharmaceutical, agrochemistry, or specialty amines manufacturing.
