What is AMP?

2024-07-04


2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, abbreviated as AMP, appears as a colorless liquid and is miscible with water and alcohols. AMP is key in formulating environmentally friendly latex paints and can also be used as an organic base for other neutralization and buffering purposes and as a pharmaceutical intermediate.



AMP not only enhances the comprehensive performance of coatings, such as scrub resistance, hiding power and viscosity stability, but also significantly reduces system odor by replacing ammonia water and reduces the risk of tank corrosion and flash rust. Moreover, AMP can also be used as an organic base, a pharmaceutical intermediate, an acidic gas absorbent and a biological stabilizer and pH regulator in metalworking fluids. Especially in the European and American markets, AMP is widely used in the concentration and post-treatment of metalworking fluids, effectively prolonging the service life of the processing fluids.



It is particularly worth noting that AMP has obtained the VOC exemption from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This decision is based on its low ozone formation potential and good toxicity data, making AMP a preferred material in markets such as coatings and personal care products. For enterprises pursuing high-performance and low-VOC coatings, the exemption status of AMP is undoubtedly a great boon. It not only meets the market's demand for environmentally friendly products but also promotes the innovation and upgrading of coating formulations.

With the increase in consumers' environmental awareness and the strengthening of regulations on VOC restrictions, the application prospects of AMP will be even broader, becoming an indispensable green additive in the coating industry. Aosen New Material is a professional and reliable supplier of AMP.
