Triethanolamine

Product Description

Triethanolamine (Code: 06290) is a high-purity, viscous, colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild ammonia-like odor. It is a tertiary amine and triol compound, combining both amine and alcohol functional groups, which give it excellent emulsifying, buffering, and surfactant properties.

In laboratories, Triethanolamine (TEA) is commonly used as a pH adjuster, emulsifier, and reagent in analytical chemistry. Industrially, it plays a key role in the production of cosmetics, detergents, lubricants, and textile chemicals, as well as in the formulation of pharmaceuticals and corrosion inhibitors.
