Product Name: Cyclohexylamine
CAS: 108-91-8
Molecular Formula: C6H13N
Molecular Weight: 99.1741
Synonyms: cyclohexanamine;Hexahydroaniline;CHA
Cyclohexylamine CAS 108-91-8 is a kind of transparent and colorless liquid with a strong fishy taste and ammonia-like smelling. It is flammable with a relative molecular mass being 99.18, the relative density being 0.8191, the melting point being -17.7 ℃, boiling point being 134.5 ℃, the flash point being 32 ℃ and the ignition point being 265 ℃.
It is soluble in water and can be miscible with common organic solvents such as ethanol, ethyl ether, acetone, ethyl acetate, chloroform, heptane, benzene and the like.
Cyclohexylamine is used as an intermediate in synthesis of other organic compounds. It is the precursor to sulfenamide-based reagents used as accelerators for vulcanization. It is a building block for pharmaceuticals (e.g., mucolytics, analgesics, and bronchodilators). The amine itself is an effective corrosion inhibitor. Some sweeteners are derived from this amine, notably cyclamate. The herbicide hexazinone is derived from cyclohexylamine .

1) Industry grade: Cyclohexylamine can be used as the raw materials of surfactants for production of alkylbenzene sulfonate for being used as emulsifier and foaming agent; It can be used as the raw materials of making perfume for production of cyclohexyl allyl propionate; It can be used as the raw materials of production of dye such as being used for production of Acidic Blue 62, disperse fluorescent yellow, fluorescent yellow dispersion H5GL, weak acid blue BRN, Disperse Blue 6 and dye additive
2) Food grade: It can be used as the raw material of food additives sweeteners; cyclohexylamine can also be used to produce cyclohexylamine sulfonate salts and Sodium Cyclamate; the later one is a sweeter which is 30 times as sweet as sucrose. The Ministry of health of China has approved it for being applied to pickles, sauces, wine preparation, cakes, biscuits, bread, frozen drinks.
3) Other grade: It can be used as Antistatic agents (Textile auxiliaries), latex agglutination agents and additives for petroleum products; It can be used as a rust inhibitor for producing anti-rust paper and tank cleaning agent.
