Genamin® M 41/2000

Genamin® D 41/2000 by Clariant is a multifunctional methyl polyalkylene oxide monoamine. It is an amine based on a statistical polyethylene/polypropylene glycol copolymer. It contains terminal primary amino groups attached to a polyether backbone based on propylene oxide (PO) or a mixture of ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO). Acts as a dispersing agent. Exhibits high primary amine value, low viscosity, moderate reactivity, narrow molecular weight distribution and hydrophilic monoamine. It ensures low content of by-products, improved handling & flow and increased water compatibility. Enables to reach high quality standards. Shows chemical reactions like salt formation with inorganic and organic acids, reaction with mono and di-functional isocyanates to form urea or polyurea derivatives, with mono- and di-functional carboxylic acids, anhydrides or esters to form diamides or polyamides, epoxides to form amino alcohols and with aldehydes & ketones to form imines. The amine groups of polyether amines react faster and form more stable reaction products than the hydroxyl groups of the corresponding polyglycols. It is a yellowish to colorless clear to turbid viscous liquid at room temperature. It is insoluble in water but soluble in polar organic solvents. Genamin® D 41/2000 is a hydrophilic building block and is used as a binder in pressure-sensitive adhesives. Listed in AICS, DSL, REACH, ENCS, IECSC, KECI, NECI, NZloC, PICCS and TSCA.
