1,6-Hexanediamine
1,6-Hexanediamine is a nitrogen-containing chemical substance or reagent identified by its named structure.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
1,6-Hexanediamine (Hexamethylenediamine) is a colorless, low-melting solid with an important industrial use. It and adipic acid are the starting materials for manufacturing nylon 6,6, a polyamide used widely in textiles and plastics. In addition to its use in the production of nylon 66 fibers and resins, HDMA is reacted with other dicarboxylic acids to make nylon 69, nylon 610, and nylon 612. In addition, HMDA can be used as a hardener for epoxy resins, in the production of hexamethylene diisocyanate for weather-resistant polyurethane, and of HDMA carbamate as an accelerator in fluorinated and polyacrylate elastomer vulcanization.
Functional groups, isomer identity, salt or free-base form, assay and impurity profile distinguish the material. Product-specific compatibility and handling must come from the relevant specification and documentation.
The commercial boundary
Use the selected edition’s stated product level, geography, years and measurement basis. Materials, components, finished systems and services are separate commercial boundaries unless that edition explicitly combines them.
Which identity, supplied form and impurity specification are required?
Functional groups, isomer identity, salt or free-base form, assay and impurity profile distinguish the material. Product-specific compatibility and handling must come from the relevant specification and documentation.
