Ethanolamine
Ethanolamine is a multifunctional family of amino alcohols favored for a diverse range of applications. They are produced commercially by reacting ethylene oxide with ammonia. They are hygroscopic and miscible with water, most alcohols, and polyols. As alkalines, they react with acids to form esters or salts. Their versatile properties qualify them for industrial use as absorbents for gas treating; as emulsifiers in cleaning products; and as a corrosion inhibitor.

Market perspective
Ethanolamine is a multifunctional family of amino alcohols favored for a diverse range of applications. They are produced commercially by reacting ethylene oxide with ammonia. They are hygroscopic and miscible with water, most alcohols, and polyols. As alkalines, they react with acids to form esters or salts. Their versatile properties qualify them for industrial use as absorbents for gas treating; as emulsifiers in cleaning products; and as a corrosion inhibitor.
In this report, ethanolamine contains monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA) and triethanolamine (TEA).
Ethanolamine has three types, such as monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA) and triethanolamine (TEA). Different products have different applications. After all, ethanolamine is mainly applied in surfactant in personal care, agrochemical production, gas treatment, construction and wood Preservation etc. During all applications, ethanolamine consumed in surfactant in personal care is the largest, with a consumption share of 31%. While in construction field, isopropanolamine is a substitution of triethanolamine.
