Amino-alcohols, other than those containing more than one kind of oxygen function; their ethers and esters; salts thereof, triethanolamine

HS v2017 Code: 292215

About amino-alcohols, other than those containing more than one kind of oxygen function; their ethers and esters; salts thereof, triethanolamine

HS code 292215 covers a group of organic compounds known as amino-alcohols, which are essential in the production of various chemical products. These compounds play a crucial role in the pharmaceutical, personal care, and industrial sectors, contributing to the development of a wide range of products, from medications to cosmetics and specialty chemicals. As a key component in the broader chemical industry, the amino-alcohols industry is an important contributor to the global economy.

Production process

The production of amino-alcohols, such as triethanolamine, typically involves a multi-step process. The primary method involves the reaction of ethylene oxide with ammonia or other nitrogen-containing compounds, followed by further processing and purification steps to obtain the desired amino-alcohol product. Advanced techniques, such as catalytic reactions and distillation, may also be employed to enhance the efficiency and purity of the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of amino-alcohols include ethylene oxide, ammonia, and other nitrogen-containing compounds. Additionally, various catalysts, solvents, and processing equipment, such as reactors, distillation columns, and purification systems, are essential for the manufacturing process. The availability and cost-effectiveness of these raw materials and equipment play a significant role in the overall competitiveness of the amino-alcohols industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 292215 is triethanolamine, a versatile amino-alcohol used in a wide range of applications. Triethanolamine is commonly used as a surfactant, emulsifier, and pH regulator in personal care products, such as 330499 Cosmetic and toilet preparations, not elsewhere specified or included. It is also employed as a corrosion inhibitor, pH adjuster, and intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds, including 292219 Amino-alcohols, other than those containing more than one kind of oxygen function, their ethers and esters; salts thereof, not elsewhere specified or included.
