About Triethanolamine CAS 102-71-6

Name: Triethanolamine
CAS: 102-71-6
Chemical formula: C6H15NO3
Appearance: colorless liquid

Triethanolamine is a colorless oily liquid with mild odor, easy to absorb water, exposed to air and turning brown under light. At low temperatures, it becomes a colorless or light yellow cubic crystal system.

Application:
1. As a compliant lubricant, it can eliminate friction between metals and help improve the viscosity and solubility of lubricating oil.
2. As a surfactant, it is often used in household cleaning and personal care products such as detergents, cleaners, softeners, etc.
3. As a preservative, stabilizer, and co solvent, it can be used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food processing.
4. As an oil in water emulsifier, it can be used to prepare various skin lotion and cosmetics.
