What is monoethanolamine?\r\nEthanolamines are actually a group of amino alcohols. Even a group of antihistamine compounds are known as ethanolamines. Dimenhydrinate, chlorphenoxamine, diphenhydramine, etc. are among these compounds. Monoethanolamines have properties of alcohols and amines. Therefore, they are able to react with both functional groups. These products are able to act as intermediate alkyl amines and react with acids to form salts and soaps. This material has a low evaporation rate at room temperature and will turn into a liquid form according to the temperature and purity level. Even in living tissues, this substance can be found, and this substance is one of the components of lecithin.\r\n\r\nMonoethanolamine absorbs water and carbon dioxide from the air and is miscible with water and alcohols in any ratio. The freezing point of this product is significantly reduced by adding water.\r\nTypes of ethanolamine\r\nMonoethanolamine\r\nDiethanolamine\r\nTriethanolamine\r\nProperties of ethanolamines\r\nName: Ethanolamine\r\nFormula: C2H7NO\r\nMolecular mass: 08 g/mol\r\nDensity: 1.01 grams per cubic centimeter\r\nBoiling point: 170°C\r\nMelting point: 10.3°C\r\nAppearance: A liquid with an ammonia-like odor\r\nSolubility in water: soluble\r\nProduction of monoethanolamine\r\nWhen the two chemical compounds of ammonia and ethylene dioxide are placed in the vicinity of each other in aqueous solution, they will react with each other. During this chemical reaction, the compounds: monoethanolamine, triethanolamine and diethanolamine are obtained. By using the stoichiometry of the reactants, the amount of each of these compounds in the product can be controlled and adjusted.\r\n\r\nThe important point in production in this way is that this process is highly heated and the temperature will increase drastically during this reaction. so that it may even reach the ignition temperature. Accordingly, this chemical reaction must be carried out in an equipped and safe environment.\r\n\r\nIndustrial production of monoethanolamine\r\nThis substance can be produced from the reaction of ethylene oxide with ammonia in aqueous solution. Diethanolamine and triethanolamine are produced during this reaction. The ratio of products can be controlled by the stoichiometry of the reactants.\r\n\r\nFeatures\r\nThis chemical is sticky.\r\nThis substance dissolves in methyl alcohol, glycerin and acetone.\r\nMonoethanolamine causes corrosion in metals such as iron, aluminum, zinc, copper, bronze and brass.\r\nWater, benzene, ether and carbon tetrachloride can be used as solvents for this material.\r\nThis product absorbs moisture and reacts with carbon dioxide in the air.\r\nLight can decompose this material.\r\nThis substance will be oxidized by air and turn yellow or brown.\r\nThe above composition has high viscosity.\r\nUses of monoethanolamine\r\nThe properties of monoethanolamine are used as a raw material in many industries to produce industrial products. Some of the uses of this material are mentioned below.\r\n\r\nProduction of detergents\r\nEmulsifier production\r\nMaking medicine\r\nbuild more
