Looking Beyond Branched TETA: Alternative Amines for Epoxy Curing
Branched TETA (CAS 90640-67-8) is a widely used and cost-effective ethylene amine mixture for epoxy curing applications. Due to its tendency toward carbamate formation and amine blush, it is often used as a building block for polyamidoamines, epoxy adducts, and Mannich base curing agents.
As market consolidation and high production asset utilization continue to challenge supply security, formulators are increasingly seeking alternative amine technologies that offer comparable performance while providing enhanced formulation flexibility and a more reliable raw material base.
In this Tech Spotlight webinar, we will discuss key alternatives from the BASF amines portfolio to Branched TETA, compare their performance characteristics, and highlight opportunities to optimize epoxy formulations without compromising curing efficiency or end-use properties.
