Amino-PEG2-alcohol is a short PEG linker containing an amino group with a hydroxyl group. The amino (NH2) group is reactive with activated NHS esters, carbonyls (ketone, aldehyde) etc.
colourless to faintly yellow liquid
2-(2-Aminoethoxy)ethanol is a combustible, colorless to light yellow, thick liquid. Fishy odor
2-(2-Aminoethoxy)ethanol is commonly used as a spacer/linker in the synthesis of bioconjugate materials for applications such as drug delivery and protein labeling. It is also employed as a receptor chain in the preparation of carboxamidoquinoline based water-soluble, ratiometric fluorescent zinc sensor.
2-(2-Aminoethoxy)ethanol is used mainly in stripper solutions for applications in electronics, in gas treating to remove carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, and in coolants/lubricants for metal working applications. Other applications of aminoethoxyethanol (ADG) include, inter alia, crop protection products, surfactants and colorants. It is also used as a selective solvent for recovery of aromatics from refinery streams and in preparation of foam stabilizers, wetting and emulsifying agents.
A colorless liquid with a faint fishlike odor. Combustible but difficult to ignite. Corrosive to tissue. Combustion produces toxic oxides of nitrogen.
2-(2-AMINOETHOXY) ETHANOL is an aminoalcohol. Neutralizes acids in exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.
TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.
Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce corrosive and/or toxic fumes. Some are oxidizers and may ignite combustibles (wood, paper, oil, clothing, etc.). Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Containers may explode when heated.
Flammability and Explosibility
Not classified
Moderately toxic by skin contact. Mildly toxic by ingestion. Severe eye and skin irritant. Corrosive and a powerful irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx,.
Used to remove gases from natural gas; in coatings in plastics; textiles, fibers, and metals; and in making other chemicals.
UN3055 2-(2-Aminoethoxy) ethanol, Hazard class: 8; Labels: 8-Corrosive material
