Uses of Amines enhance strength in cement and reduce drying time.
Ethanolamines are used in heavy-duty liquid laundry detergents, providing a reserve alkalinity to the laundry bath, essential to efficient cleaning. Thealkanolamines neutralize fatty acids present in oily soil components converting them to amine soaps and are effective soil anti-deposition agents.
Ethylenediamine (EDA) is used in fungicides for prevention of mildew, scab, rust and blight. Theethylenebisdithiocarbamates, which were first used in the 1930s, are a class of broad-spectrum, preventative, contact fungicides. The ethylenebisdithiocarbamates are prepared by reacting EDA with carbon disulfide in the presence of an aqueous base.
Monoethanolamine (MEA) is used as a pH control agent in the formulation of packaging and printing inks.
Triethanolamine (TEA) is used in "down hole" oil wells to prevent corrosion of drilling equipment.
Ethanolamines are used in herbicide formulations and as chemical intermediates for molluscide, fungicides and algaecideproducts for Agriculture.
