    Ethylenediamine (CAS 107-15-3)

    EDA, also known as ethane-1,2-diamine, 1,2-diaminoethane, or ethanediamine, is a low-molecular-weight aliphatic diamine corresponding to CAS 107-15-3 and widely used as a core intermediate in chelating agent synthesis. Its functionality is based on two primary amine groups capable of coordinating metal ions and participating in stepwise condensation reactions, making it suitable for downstream processing in agrochemical and specialty chemical manufacturing. The material is supplied with competitive factory pricing, customized specifications, complete documentation including MSDS, TDS, COA, and stable bulk supply.

    Product Overview

    Ethylenediamine is provided as a basic diamine intermediate for industrial manufacturing routes that require strong amine reactivity and coordination capability. It is commonly selected for chelating agent synthesis and for process systems involving stepwise condensation or amine-based downstream transformation.

    This product is more appropriately positioned as an industrial chemical intermediate rather than a finished end-use formulation ingredient. It is commonly applied in specialty chemical production, agrochemical processing, resin-related systems, and selected surfactant or auxiliary chemical manufacturing routes.
