About the Product
Monoethanolamine (MEA), also known as ethanolamine, is a versatile compound utilized across multiple industries due to its combination of amine and alcohol properties. It is commonly found in the production of detergents, cosmetics, and personal care products as it acts as a surfactant and emulsifying agent. In the chemical sector, MEA serves as a vital component in herbicides, fungicides, and corrosion inhibitors. Additionally, in gas processing, MEA is valuable for its role as a selective absorbent, particularly in removing carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. These attributes make MEA essential in enhancing processes across various industrial sectors, promoting efficiency and effectiveness.
