2-(2-(dimethylamino)ethoxy)ethanol

2-(2-(Dimethylamino)ethoxy)ethanol (CAS 1704-62-7 ), commonly known as DMAEE or N,N-Dimethyldiglycolamine, is a bifunctional amine-alcohol used as a catalyst and pH regulator.

Its dual amine and hydroxyl functionality makes it effective where both reactivity and compatibility with aqueous systems are required across coatings, polymer, and industrial chemical applications.

In polyurethane foam and coatings manufacturing, DMAEE functions as a tertiary amine catalyst that promotes gel and blow reactions, influencing foam structure and cure profile.

Waterborne coatings and latex systems use it as a neutralizing amine to adjust pH and stabilize dispersions, improving shelf life and application performance during storage.

In adhesives and sealants, it supports cure acceleration and acts as a reactive diluent that integrates into the polymer matrix rather than remaining as a free solvent.

Metalworking fluid formulations incorporate DMAEE for pH buffering, helping maintain alkalinity and corrosion inhibition over extended service cycles in industrial environments.

DMAEE is supplied as a clear liquid, typically in drum and IBC quantities for industrial buyers. It is available in technical grade, with purity specifications commonly at 98% or higher.

Bulk tanker supply is standard for high-volume coatings and polymer producers requiring consistent chemical feedstocks for large-scale manufacturing operations and distribution.
