Full Description

Aminoethylethanolamine (AEEA) is an aminoalcohol used as an epoxy hardener component and a versatile building block — its mix of amine and hydroxyl groups adds adhesion and flexibility. Identity: CAS 111-41-1.

What it is

Aminoethylethanolamine (CAS 111-41-1) is a liquid with both primary-amine and hydroxyl functionality. It is used in epoxy hardener blends and as an intermediate for surfactants, chelants and fuel additives.

How it cures

Its amine hydrogens cure epoxy while the hydroxyl group improves wetting and adhesion and moderates the network; it is often a component of formulated hardeners rather than a sole curing agent.

Applications

AEEA is used in epoxy hardener blends, adhesives and coatings, and as a building block. Compare TETA.

Forms, grades and handling

AEEA is supplied as a clear liquid in drums, IBCs and bulk. Properties are typical reference values; the Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for the lot you buy governs. Amine curing agents are typically corrosive and can sensitize skin — handle per the current Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Each lot ships with CoA, TDS and SDS.

Bulk supply and RFQ

RawSource sources Aminoethylethanolamine direct from producers in bulk, with CoA, TDS and SDS per lot. Tell us your resin system, cure schedule (ambient or heat) and the properties you need (pot life, Tg, flexibility, chemical resistance), and we will quote the right hardener. See selection logic in the epoxy curing agents guide.
