Polyethylene glycol 2-aminoethyl ether

CAS: 32130-27-1

Overview

Polyethylene glycol 2-aminoethyl ether (CAS 32130-27-1 ) is a PEG-based amine that combines a reactive primary amine terminus with a hydroxyl-capped polyethylene oxide chain.

This dual-functional structure makes it a reactive building block for surface modification, polymer conjugation, and formulation design across personal care, textile, and industrial cleaning markets.

In personal care formulations, it acts as a conditioning and moisturizing agent, improving substrate adhesion and water retention in leave-on and rinse-off products.

Textile and leather processors use it to modify fiber surfaces, enhancing dye uptake, softness, and wetting performance in finishing baths for various industrial applications.

The primary amine group enables covalent attachment to substrates or reactive intermediates, making it a functional linker in polymer crosslinking and surface grafting processes.

In industrial and household cleaning formulations, it contributes to soil dispersion and surface wetting, particularly on hard-to-wet synthetic substrates and materials.

Polyethylene glycol 2-aminoethyl ether is typically supplied as a liquid or viscous solution, with molecular weight variants available to suit different application requirements.

Technical-grade material is the standard commercial offering, though higher-purity grades are available for specialty formulation and research use in drum or IBC quantities.
