2,4,6-Tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol is a light yellow, amber to reddish brown liquid with an amine odour. Density is less than water. Vapour is heavier than air.
tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol be used for is used as a curing accelerator to promote a relatively short time in the epoxy resin is fully cured. High temperature curing epoxy resin system have significant role in promoting, but also appropriate to improve the bonding strength.
2,4,6-Tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol can be used:
- In the synthesis of water-soluble metal phthalocyanines bearing twelve dimethylamino groups.
- To prepare phenolate anion-based branched/cross-linked anion exchange membranes (AEMs).
- As a curing agent in the production of epoxy membranes.
2,4,6-Tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol is corrosive to eyes, skin, mouth, stomach and throat. Vapours can irritate eyes and corrode upper respiratory tract. Serious injury or death may result from inhalation, ingestion or skin contact.
