Cyclohexylamine (CHA) is a versatile Technical Grade primary amine utilized extensively as a corrosion inhibitor and chemical intermediate. With a 99% min purity, it provides effective pH control and metal surface protection in steam-generating systems.
This flammable, colorless-to-yellow liquid possesses a distinct fishy odor and is completely miscible with water. In boiler water treatment, it acts as a neutralizing amine, preventing carbonic acid corrosion in condensate lines.
CHA is also a vital building block in the synthesis of artificial sweeteners, rubber accelerators, and herbicides. Its high reactivity makes it indispensable for the production of various agrochemicals and industrial surfactants.
SoleChem, an ISO 9001:2015 certified chemical supplier based in Türkiye, delivers Cyclohexylamine (CHA) (CAS 108-91-8) to customers in more than 40 countries.
