1-Hexylamine is used as corrosion inhibitors, emulsifiers and surfactants. It is used in dyes, rubber and pharmaceutical industries. It is also used to study the modification of alkanethlol monolayers in gas-phase surface reactions. It acts as an initiator in the ring opening polymerization of N-carboxyanhydride.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
