Product Description

Cyclohexylamine (C₆H₁₃N) is a colourless to slightly yellow liquid with a characteristic strong, fishy amine odour. Supplied by LANXESS, this strongly alkaline primary amine is fully miscible with water and common organic solvents, making it a versatile platform chemical for demanding industrial applications.

This cyclic amine is widely used as a chemical intermediate and building block in the manufacture of crop protection agents, dyestuffs, pharmaceutical actives and sweeteners. It also serves as a corrosion inhibitor and neutralising amine in industrial water and boiler-feed-water treatment, and as a hardener and crosslinking agent in polymer systems. Its reactivity and broad solubility make it a valuable component in many complex formulations.

Key Features:

  • Colourless to pale yellow liquid with strong amine odour
  • Strongly alkaline and miscible with water and organic solvents
  • Versatile intermediate for agrochemicals, dyes, pharmaceuticals and sweeteners
  • Suitable for corrosion inhibition and polymer crosslinking applications
  • Reliable quality with global supply support
