| abstract |
This invention relates to polyetheramines based on 1,3-dialcohols, in particular to an etheramine mixture comprising at least 90% by weight, based on the total weight of the etheramine mixture, of anamine of Formula (I) and/or (II), wherein R 1 -R 12 are independently selected from H, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, alkylaryl, or arylalkyl, wherein at least one of R 1 -R 6 and at least one of R 7 -R 12 is different from H, wherein A 1 -A 9 are independently selected from linear or branched alkylenes having 2 to 18 carbon atoms, preferably 2-10 carbon atoms, most preferably 2-5 carbon atoms, wherein Z 1 -Z 4 are independently selected from OH or NH 2 , wherein at least one of Z 1 -Z 2 and at least one of Z 3 -Z 4 is NH 2 , and wherein the sum of x+y is in the range of from 2 to 200, wherein x≥1 and y≥1; and x 1 +y 1 is in the range of from 2 to 200, preferably 2-20, most preferably 2-10, wherein x 1 ≥1 and y 1 ≥1. |
