China, Germany, and the United States are the leading exporters of Diethylenetriamine (CAS 111-40-0), collectively accounting for over 50% of global export value in 2023–2024; major importers include India, South Korea, and Mexico, driven by demand from polymer, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical sectors. Import volumes in Southeast Asia and India have risen steadily since 2022, coinciding with moderate upward pressure on Diethylenetriamine prices amid tightening supply from key European producers.
Diethylenetriamine (DETA) is a colorless to pale yellow, hygroscopic liquid with a characteristic amine odor and moderate volatility; it has a boiling point of approximately 207 °C and a melting point near 8 °C. It is classified as a linear aliphatic polyamine and serves primarily as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis. Its principal industrial applications include the production of chelating agents (e.g., EDTA derivatives), epoxy curing agents, and corrosion inhibitors. DETA is widely employed in polymer manufacturing—especially for polyamide and polyurea resins—as well as in agrochemicals (e.g., plant growth regulators and fungicide intermediates) and water treatment formulations.
Diethylenetriamine is manufactured by reacting ethylenedichloride and ammonia. It is used as a solvent, in organicsyntheses, and in a variety of industrial applications includinguse as a fuel component.
Diethylenetriamine is a corrosive liquid and a solvent(18, 139).
