WINAMINE TETA

Triethylenetetramine

TETA is a highly reactive aliphatic polyamine and one of WINBOND’s key specialty amine products. It can be used directly as an epoxy curing agent or as an important raw material for epoxy amine adducts and modified curing-agent formulations.

Its high amine functionality and reactivity make it particularly suitable for fast ambient-temperature epoxy curing and applications where rapid strength development is required. Industry technical data also consistently identifies TETA as a reactive epoxy curing agent and accelerator.

Key Features

Aliphatic Amines

Aliphatic specialty amines generally provide high reactivity and versatile amine functionality. Depending on molecular structure, they can serve as direct epoxy curing agents, catalysts, crosslinkers or intermediates for modified curing agents and other chemical products.

WINAMINE DMAPA molecular structureBrand-blue structural formula of N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine.NNH2

WINAMINE DMAPA

N,N-Dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine

DMAPA is a versatile functional amine used primarily as a chemical intermediate and catalyst rather than only as a conventional direct epoxy hardener. Its combination of primary and tertiary amine functionality makes it useful in curing-agent synthesis and catalytic applications.

WINAMINE DMAPAPA

N'-(3-Aminopropyl)-N,N-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine

DMAPAPA contains primary, secondary and tertiary amine functionality, allowing it to provide both curing and catalytic activity in epoxy systems. It is particularly useful where relatively fast cure and multifunctional amine behavior are required.

WINAMINE N4 molecular structureBrand-blue structural formula of N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)ethylenediamine.H2NNHHNNH2

WINAMINE N4

N,N'-Bis(3-aminopropyl)ethylenediamine

N4 is a multifunctional aliphatic polyamine with several reactive amine sites, making it useful as an epoxy curing agent, crosslinker and raw material for modified curing-agent development.

Cycloaliphatic Amines

Cycloaliphatic amines are useful raw materials and curing-agent components where formulators need a balance between reactivity, processing time and cured-system performance. Compared with simple short-chain aliphatic amines, different cycloaliphatic structures can provide more controlled cure behavior and are commonly selected for coatings, adhesives, composites and performance-oriented epoxy systems.

WINAMINE CHAPA molecular structureN-(3-Aminopropyl)cyclohexylamine molecular structure.H2NNH

WINAMINE CHAPA

N-(3-Aminopropyl)cyclohexylamine

A cycloaliphatic amine combining a cyclohexyl structure with reactive primary and secondary amine functionality. It can be used as an epoxy curing-agent component and as a building block for modified amine formulations.

WINAMINE MCDA molecular structureMethyl-substituted diaminocyclohexane molecular structure.H3CH2NNH2

WINAMINE MCDA

Methyldiaminocyclohexane

MCDA is a low-viscosity cycloaliphatic diamine with a more moderate cure profile than highly reactive short-chain aliphatic amines.

WINAMINE DMDC molecular structureBrand-blue structural formula of 3,3'-dimethyl-4,4'-diaminodicyclohexylmethane.H2NNH2

WINAMINE DMDC

3,3'-Dimethyl-4,4'-diaminodicyclohexylmethane

DMDC is a cycloaliphatic diamine for performance-oriented epoxy formulations, particularly where thermal, chemical and moisture resistance are important.
