Ethylenediamine (CAS 107-15-3)

Ethylenediamine, also known as EDA, Ethane-1,2-diamine, 1,2-Diaminoethane, or Ethanediamine, is a basic aliphatic diamine corresponding to CAS 107-15-3 and used as a diamine intermediate in chelating agent synthesis, agrochemical production, surfactant manufacturing, and epoxy curing agent systems. Its strong amine reactivity and coordination capability make it suitable for downstream reactions requiring stepwise condensation or amine-based transformation. The material is supplied with competitive factory pricing, customized specifications, complete documentation including MSDS, TDS, COA, and stable bulk supply.

Product Description

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.

FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

  • Q:

    What is Ethylenediamine (EDA) mainly used for?

    A: Ethylenediamine is mainly used as an aliphatic diamine intermediate in chelating agent (EDTA) synthesis, agrochemical production, surfactant manufacturing, epoxy curing agents, and selected pharmaceutical intermediates.
  • Q:

    Is EDA the same as Ethane-1,2-diamine?

    A: Yes. EDA is the common abbreviation for Ethylenediamine, also referred to as Ethane-1,2-diamine, 1,2-Diaminoethane, or Ethanediamine.
  • Q:

    Is CAS 107-15-3 the correct CAS number?

    A: Yes. CAS 107-15-3 is the standard CAS number associated with Ethylenediamine (EDA).
  • Q:

    What grade is typically available for Ethylenediamine?

    A: Ethylenediamine is typically supplied at 99.5% purity as an industrial grade for chemical synthesis and manufacturing applications.
  • Q:

    What packaging and storage conditions are recommended?

    A: EDA is commonly supplied in 200 kg drums. It should be stored in a cool, ventilated area away from heat, acids, and oxidizing agents, and kept in sealed containers due to its hygroscopic and corrosive nature.
