Ethanolamines correspond to a class of organic compounds that include monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA) and triethanolamine (TEA). Ethanolamines are used in a wide range of applications, including acid gas purification, surfactants for soaps and detergents, and corrosion inhibitors. Ethanolamines are exclusively synthesized by reacting an amine with ethylene oxide (EO). In 2023, global ethanolamines demand was about 2.0 million metric tons and will continue to grow at an average of 2%-3% per year over the next five years, driven primarily by the developing markets in Asia, particularly mainland China.
