Description and Uses

HMDA is a hygroscopic, colorless solid (pel-letsorflakes). Weak, fishy odor. odor thresh-old = 0.004 mg/m';Molecular weight = 116.13; Boilingpoint = 199℃; FreezingMelting point = 39- 42℃; Flashpoint= 71℃;81℃(solution);Autoi gnitiontemperature = 310℃. Explosive limits:LEL=0.7%;UEL= 6.3%. Soluble in water.

Hexamethylenediamine is mainly used as a monomer to make nylon 6-6. Its derivative hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) is used in the production of polyurethane. It acts as a cross-linking agent in epoxy resins. Other applications include fiber, plastics, polyurethane coatings, lubricants, water treatment products and specialty chemicals (biocides, petroleum additives, and phenol purification).
